The shit about gay men being racist and sexist pigs is just window-dressing to the bigger problem about gays in general selling out. Red represents life orange, healing yellow, sunlight green, nature blue, peace and harmony purple, spirit light blue, light pink and white, trans individuals black and brown, marginalized QPOC communities black, those living with HIV, those no longer living and those surrounded by stigma. It doesn't help that a clean-shaven gay guy with a good job, for better or worse, is the image of the 'new' gay, so they use gay men in general as a punching bag because they're the same sex as the new gay poster-boy. Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) Pride Month is currently celebrated each year in the month of June to honor the 1969 Stonewall. Quasar also explains the colors of the flag. The arrow points to the right to show forward movement, while being along the left edge shows that progress still needs to be made.” Quasar continues, “The trans flag and marginalized community stripes were shifted to the Hoist of the flag and given a new arrow shape. “The six-stripe LGBT flag should be separated from the newer stripes because of their difference in meaning, as well as to shift focus and emphasis to what is important in our current community climate.” On a Kickstarter looking to raise $14,000 to mass-produce the flag, Quasar explains the design. Quasar writes, “I felt there needed to be more thought put into the design and emphasis of the flag to give it more meaning.”
