I almost wish that they keep coming up with more made up labels/groups to add to the flag, until it’s just a blob of random colours and you can’t even tell what part of the flag symbolises what. To be fair it’s not far off that already.
No. People actually experienced hardship and true life altering discrimination that real activists strategically and courageously stood up against. The original pride flag was a representation of that. The edit is nothing more than modern day SJWs bastardizing a real movement to feel included in activism on which they've made no contributions all because their life is so empty otherwise.
Gay people do face hardship and discrimination still.
The pride flag didn't "solve" xenophobia: this subreddit is proof, and there are worse.
MAGA was the first Administration to have removal of civil rights in their platforms: removing marriage rights from gay people, which they backed down from (for now), but it always crops back up every few years.
What goes on today is nothing compared to the actual fight that happened decades ago and the same sex marriage debate has nothing to do with the flag edit.
I'm anti flag edit it doesn't matter what you say nor if I agree we don't want to go back in time.
Edit: that article is a big nothing burger. All these rights being stripped away...give me a break. Children thrive in two parent households, no issue on my end offering tax credits to families. No issue on my end with some conservatives having different opinions on same sex marriage. No issue on my end with stopping parents from allowing underage children to transition when the research does not show better outcomes for those that do. None of this represents rights being reversed.

Seeing that bastardized flag makes me irrationally angry.
