Okay, I’m as staunchly pro-Ukrainian as they come and even I think this is ridiculous. Much like black LGB people, Ukrainian LGB are already included in the rainbow.

I honestly think it’s a deliberate effort on the part of the TQ+ derangees to erase same sex attracted people from the flag. But of course if we choose to leave them to it and form our own group - eg the LGB Alliance - were hateful transphobes. You cannot win.

The irony of this is that Ukraine has made transwomen stay and fight because they’re able-bodied men.

I see nothing wrong with this except of course that it's quite sexist, against both sexes really in a way. And even then, seeing as physical strength is highly beneficial in wartime and mandating strength testing wastes time that doesn't exist in an invasion, I can see how it is easy to argue that not being sexist in this and probably several other ways is somewhat of a luxury belief.

What are the new colors for? Cancer flag grows ever more cancerous.

Ukraine. Which is a nice sentiment, but uhh... feels misplaced?

That's dumb, Ukraine is fairly homophobic. But I guess because they allow people to legally change gender that means they're ok and who cares about the LGB people discriminated against?

If they just keep going a little longer pretty soon it will just be their nonsense. Think they'll notice?

Any new thing added to the flag moves the conversation away from same-sex.

I hope the TQ's drop the rainbow and LGB someday.

Good luck. Ukrainians won’t be happy about this.
