'I’m getting seizures just from looking at it': Pride flag gets yet another update to include intersex people

As Twitchy reported recently, the State Department and the Defense Department are at odds over displaying the Pride flag during Pride Month; State is all for it, while the Pentagon recently said it will stick to its current policy and not fly the Pride flag at military installations.

It was only recently that we learned that there’s more than one Pride flag, though. The traditional one simply shows the rainbow colors and represents the LGBTQ community. However, to be more inclusive, the Pride Progress flag was created, adding the colors of the transexual flag as well as black and brown triangles to represent marginalized communities of color.

Now the flag is being updated again, this time to include intersex people. Here’s what it looks like now:

Progress Pride flag gets 2021 redesign to better represent intersex people https://t.co/gLahkfgxMZ

Intersex people are now represented by a yellow triangle with a purple circle in the middle. Pink News UK reports that “it intentionally stays away from traditionally gendered colours of blue and pink to celebrate the intersex community.” “The circle is unbroken and un-ornamented, symbolising wholeness and completeness, and our potentialities.”

Eww no, it's getting messy. Love the progress flag but this is going too far.

There’s no way a gay person designed this. If so, I’ll walk into that “design” room and take their membership cards away. Tell them they won’t get it back until they admit this is NOT how we behave.

This version seems visually violent to me. It’s aesthetically unsettling. 😑

Running out of space on the thing. Farcical.

Still not inclusive enough. Please redesign to make it even more unpleasant to look at.

“I don’t feel like I’m being adequately represented by all the colors of the rainbow. We need to change this flag by adding an overt representation of my niche identity.” Our once-inclusive flag is being colonized by narcissists.

That's why it's depicted as sliding over and covering up the pride flag.

I feel like this flag was made to purposefully look ridiculous.

Hideous. It's just a joke at this point

No gay man designed this. I was trained by a gay graphic designer and I know he’d have contempt for this lol.

What do you all have against intersex people?
