    No, it represents the LGBTQIA+ community. It does not include allies, and saying it does is an invitation for appropriation.

      Time for a new flag! Let’s add polka dots!

      (I’m joking, I think the flag gets stupider as stuff gets added to it. I understand what it represents, but as a piece of graphic design I hate the chevron addition)

          I just think the OG flag was so simple and good, an awesome design. I find the new one cluttered and it gives me a designed-by-committee vibe.

          Honestly i think it’s useless the cevron even if it was not a cevron; the old flag was enough IMO

            I feel like all the add ons water down the message of unity. Instead of gathering for battle under a single flag we bitch and moan about what colours should be in which order.

            *It’s not lost on me that I’m bitching and moaning about which colours are in what order. I’m not even gay, I’m just gay for vexillolography.
