Yes, many of us are.

Because the Rainbow already included everyone. You know, every color under the sun.

But of course then someone had to add race into it. Then 7 other colors because it wasn't about "representing" everybody, it was about enforcing their "existence" on everyone. And we can't just have a generally-representative thing like a rainbow: no, it must include my group explicitly too.

Then that one person turned it into a wedge which made it 5x uglier than the original pride flag (though to be fair 1/2 as ugly as the 15-color monstrosity stripes), and very clearly articulates the goal of the groups in the wedge: to divide and destroy what pride stood for (you know, gay rights). Not to mention too that this version is not free to use; they demand royalties and are making sick bank off of pushing it everywhere. Just another grifter.

It's a sign we've been co-opted by outside interest. Though it seems unifying it symbolizes of the atomization of the community...

I really want to destroy those flags but it would probably get me arrested for a hate crime. Ironically, most of the jerks flying these dumb flags are probably just part of the + (so not gay lol)
