The initial shit smear flag was about 'starting the conversation about race in the lgbtq community'. It's a flag that scolds you. This new one even more so. These are hostile to you as a gay person.

I can't even tell if this guy's doing satire because his reason is entirely surface level.

I'd keep saying it as the rule of thumb and it always works: If you can safely tell your parents you are part of the group you claim to, you don't need the pride flag. I'm pretty sure your parents are aware you are black.

Unless you're Shaun King or Rachel Dolezal 🤣.

In the same way I wasn't sure about the Ukraine one, it's possible someone is that nutty so it's really hard to tell.

Wikipedia is trying to portray Ukraine as a gay friendly country. I don't see how it's any more gay friendly than Poland or Hungary. At least Hungary has civil partnerships.

Don't get me wrong - let the Ukrainians do what they want in their own country. But they're not going to agree with every single aspect of western culture just because they're at war with Russia.

Yeah it's why it was a really random addition. Who tf thinks Ukraine is gay friendly though? Frankly that seems dangerous to people if they're morons when travelling...

The same silky-smooth lobes who think that Allah is totally cool with homos, and that those express elevator rides from a roof to the street are just an alt-right Islamophobe lie.

Sure, Ukraine might legalise civil unions. Might. But most Ukrainians believe that homosexuality is immoral. In fact, western efforts to make Ukraine more gay friendly are counterproductive, because it seems like the West are using the war as an excuse to force Ukrainians to change their culture.

Even then it's a big might, just because it's legal doesn't mean people will accept it.

That reminds me of how they try to depict North Korea as a far-right Nazi country, because they don't want people to notice the similarities between their own propaganda and communist regimes.

It shouldn't surprise me that Wikipedia does this, but still, what the fuck? North Korea is a communist country in its own right. Fuck Wikipedia. Anything based out of San Francisco is untrustworthy.
