Yes, it's a flag of surrender. And also a literal dishtowel. They used what they had, which wasn't much, apparently, lmao
in fairness taking a white flag to war is gonna get called out as expecting to lose, so of all the things you'd expect them to have that wouldn't be it
Just take flags in many colors and say you want to use them for signaling.
You don't need to play devil's advocate for traitorous slavers.
