It actually means that the person flying the flag is in distress. Like if a school is being held hostage, but the hostage takers know it will look suspicious if the flag doesn't get put up and let's them put it up, then the person putting it up could put it up upside down to indicate to everyone outside of the school that they're in distress.

Maybe he felt the nation was in distress that day?

All I'm saying is that the gesture isn't an invention of the J6 crowd. It's spelled out in US Flag Code.

I agree with you there, and I am constantly annoyed with that group appropriating traditional symbols of our nation for their own fucked up movement. Hell dude, in 2020 I started feeling resentful every time I saw the US Flag at all, because they had successfully associated it so strongly with their group. It wasn't until earlier this year that I decided I'm going to start reclaiming symbols they have taken from us, and using them regardless of that group's claims.
