      Would it satisfy you guys if they added a white stripe?

      IMO, no.  What about "LGBTQ" signals anything about race or ethnicity?  It has nothing to do with skin color….

      I think your point is legitimate and well-taken.  However, labelling it as an attack against whites distorts the issue.  Not everything that is pro-black/brown is anti-white.

        As if each color represented an specific kind of person, the rainbow overall is supposed to represent everyone and everything.

        Liberal scum, in their core they are true racists, thinking that because you're dark-skinned you're separated from everyone else and entitled to more stripes in this flag even though you were already included in it in first place. Extra brown stripe included, it's not supposed to represent "Latin" as they say since that's not a skin color nor a race, it's actual meaning is "more black people" or "I'm more important than you". Fuck asians, fuck middle-easterners, fuck whites, fuck everyone except me.

          It is when in the name of "diversity" they exclude whites, like we have here.  Just like everything else, BLM and it's offshoots are hijacking the pride flag for themselves.

            Obviously, if they exclude whites, that is not true diversity and I too denounce this. I think the minorities take the white majority for granted.  There are certainly some that harbor hostility to whites, but that is certainly not universal.  Any assumption that it is just promotes racism on both sides.

              BLM hijacked the Orlando shooting vigil and turned it into a racist anti white thing.  They constantly do it.

              The new flag is nothing but more of the same from BLM and it's offshoots.

                  No, it's me.  The lack of hysterical name-calling may have prompted me to try to see the other side of things. BTW, that is what this forum should be about.  And I can now be sure that Frederick and Strangeloop are not the same person. 😉

                    as usual liberals turn everything into a racial issue. the flag is suppose to represent sexuality not race but i forgot some people have to make everything about race.

                      The adding of brown and black to the flag is stupid. The rainbow flag represents everyone, because none of the colours of the rainbow represents race.

                      On top of that, by adding race, it excludes and no longer includes. There is no brown and there is no black in the rainbow (and no white either)

                        Thanks for your interpretation of the colors.  But it could be argued that black is what you get when you combine all of the colors as pigments and white is what you get when you combine all of the colors as transmitted light.
                        I agree tat they should leave the flag as it is, however.

                          Do you honestly think that BLM added black and brown to the flag because of that?

                            No. Just a colorimetric musing. ;D
