Literally using intersex people as a shield to protect the TQ+ from being cut out of the LGB community.

Well, they've used people of colour already.. I suppose no group is safe from TQ objectification...

Which is ironic, because in America and other western countries, non-white racial and ethnic groups are more opposed to TQ rights and activism than white people.

That's not quite true in the U.S. Hispanics and Asians, at least the ones I've been around, are very receptive to gay men who transition to being women but are cagey with regular gay men.

Most third world countries that U.S. immigrants hail from have a lot of gay transwomen and they're seen as special people and less controversial than average men seeking relationships with other men.

Don't give people too much credit, is what I'm saying.

Good point. It is disturbing that people would rather a gay man be something he’s not than be someone who he is.

This is probably because there are a lot of religious and/or conservative cultures where becoming trans is seen as an acceptable cure for being gay, and that it would be less embarrassing than accepting being LGB.

Literally using intersex people as a shield to protect the TQ+

Which is ironic considering how they never focus on specific issues that affect intersex people.

Good job, op! My eyes melted & now i have to type using my elevated senses! Now, more seriously, this flag is atrocious. What a bloody freaking ugly design, the TQ+ were always ridiculous, but this is reaching new heights!

I hope they keep going. Have your shitty overcomplicated flag design and let us keep the standard rainbow one

P.S How long do we all think it’ll be before the old rainbow flag will be called a “transphobic dogwhistle”?

You can tell that all the rainbow flag redesigns are by people who don't understand the aesthetics simplicity and abstraction of the standard rainbow flag. It's a rainbow, it's supposed to be all the colors in the visible spectrum of a rainbow and an abstract representation of including everyone LGB. By demanding the flag literally include human skin colors of brown and beige it ruins the abstract representation element and opens it up to constant redesigns to include literal representations in the flag to promote sufficient virtue signalling. It's fucking atrocious from an artistic standpoint. Yellow and purple now appear twice in the flag!

This is of course, to say nothing of how deeply troubling it is to see intersex people being courted by trans activists to be once again used as a shield for their cause despite their causes being totally unrelated.

This is perfect. Keep adding stuff. Normies will get the idea that it's all nuts, and that it's never enough.

It could be a bit more inclusive but I guess it is ok 😐

I really hope this is a joke, I really do.

None of the people involved in this decision were gay.

That’s the mistake you made there. The creators are straights!🤣

The flag has stopped representing homosexuals and bisexuals long ago. Now it represents neoliberalism. This flag is not going to stop with transgenders, intersex people or ethnic groups. They might as well just add every single colour on the planet just to be "inclusive".

Quite sure that not a single actually intersex person (a lot of trans fakers) wants that...

There is barely any rainbow left lol.

Do people with DSDs even want to be a part of this 'community'? I never see rainbow groups doing anything to advance the interests of intersex people or demonstrate any understanding of what intersex/ DSD means. They seem solely concerned with using the existence of DSDs to advance the belief that biological sex isn't real, or is a spectrum. Weird to give 'intersex' such prominence on the flag when they have no real representation within the community.

The pride flag is starting to look like a NASCAR uniform.
