Another hot take: The historical pride flag is the best version and all of the updates make it look ugly. I also feel like the updates ignore the purpose of even having a flag to begin with.

It is supposed to be unifying for all queer people and i get the updates were trying to do that. But at a certain point they start to feel pointless and feel like virtue signaling. Im saying this as bi man.

I feel like it’s actually a psyop to make the modern pride flag as ugly as possible vexillogically speaking. Normal 6 color rainbow is the best imo

Yes thats a good one too. I see the pride flag as a symbol that is supposed to represent all people equally. Not highlighting certain groups that need representation. I don’t deny visibility is important but thats what pride month is for.

Yeah I think they should either tell people to see the rainbow as a gradient of the entire color spectrum, or maybe go in that direction. thats also ugly tho

Yknow what you can make with the colors of the rainbow? Any other color. It’s inclusive by nature.

Yes the only reason they changed from the original 8 color to 6 was dye and fabric shortages iirc. The original meanings of the colors: Hot Pink-Sex Red-Life Orange-Healing Yellow-Sunlight Green-Nature Turquoise-Healing/Art Indigo-Serenity Purple-Spirit A nine stripe version created in 2017 has lavender at the top symbolizing diversity.
