not to exclude any group but i really prefer the aesthetics of the 6 colour rainbow flag

mindbleach ,

Yeah... adding other patterns misses the point. It's a rainbow. It's a spectrum that covers everyone. It's not like one group owns a given stripe. As soon as a broad symbol becomes a collection of specifics, you wind up asking 'why this group, but not that group?,' and it's a whole thing.

You want a flag that explicitly supports trans people? We had that. It's... the trans flag. And also the rainbow flag, because y'all were already covered. You're even in the acronym.

It's very funny to me how many pride flags are just from Tumblr users in like the early 2010's

No, I mean more like if I was more active during that time maybe I could've made one that caught on lol.

Edit: (Not that I was aware I was any form of queer at the time.)

i think the biggest issue with the progess pride flags are licensing issues. the original designer of the flag with 5 bars on the left published it under a license that retains copy right. i don't care that he's legally in the right, it's sort of a dick move considering the significance of such a flag.
