The rainbow flag used to be just a symbol including everyone, cause the rainbow has all colors in it.
Now they made a flag that literally has a brown stripe in it for brown people, a black stripe for black people, and pink and blue for transgender (get it? pink is girl, blue is boy). Plus some shit I don't even know what it means anymore.
But now white people are complaining that there isn't a separate yellow stripe for yellow people and another red stripe for red people.
Even if you're gay and promoting trans rights, that shit makes no sense and is frankly old-school racist.

So the newest iteration of the flag is just "everyone except straight white guys" now? Aren't straight white guys only like 30% of the population even in the west?
So the flag that was supposed to be for marginalized groups now represents a supermajority of all humans. Are white men that powerful that everyone else needs to ally against them?

I mean it's not like identity is by default separate from politics before some company comes along and gives you the option to signify aspects of both using their product if you want. your romantic and sexual preference are absolutely going to inform your sociopolitical manifestations whether you choose to acknowledge that or not. the "lgbt" community isn't a monolith. diversity within community is not just possible but inevitable. the inclusion of an optional pride wallpaper is little more than an invitation toward mundane self-expression and a gesture signifying vague social support from the company that makes the product, arguably cynical because they're probably only really doing it because they want to look good, but it's not like they're trying to push you into joining a cult. i'm still struggling to see how you could interpret it otherwise.

Reminder, "trans rights" is just a thin veil for pedophile activism, and pedo activism has always been a part of fag activism. What are "trans rights"? access to kids, poisoning kids, mutilating kids, taking kids from parents who don't want to embrace lies and delusions and want to protect their kids, locking people up for not playing make believe with delusional freaks.

not really. again, it's not a monolith. it's not a centralized movement. nobody's in control of it. what you're seeing is just the prevailing political stances of the people who comprise that community. lgbt republicans exist. lgbt independents exist. this is what i said earlier about variation and diversity in community being inevitable. that's kind of what a community is, common threads among diverse people.
>the flag includes transgender and black people that are completely unrelated
trans people are intrinsically related to the lgbT community, and this version of the flag includes queer people of color for intersectional purposes as a countermeasure against what was perceived as the community's growing racism problem, which makes it relevant.
but all of this is irrelevant anyway because, again, including an optional flag isn't predatory by any stretch of the imagination.

nobody's claiming it does? it's just a label that describes a group of people, and the flag is just a visual insignia of that group. saying you're gay but don't identify with the lgbt community is like saying you don't eat meat or eggs or dairy but you're not "vegan."
>it's predatory as installing a jehovah witness wallpaper in your computer
how is that predatory? religious paraphernalia is easily accessible. you can use your fm radio to tune in to a Christian station. you don't have to, but you do have the option. introducing people to ideas isn't inherently predatory.

no. they're disagreeing on sociopolitical conduct within the context of sexuality, but not who gets to call themselves gay and who doesn't. each faction will tell you that gay people who disagree with them are still categorically gay, just gay and retarded.

you didn't explicitly use the word "contradict" at any point but your juxtaposition of those two statements heavily implies an intent to highlight some conflict between them.

>>105596953
>Here: "I don't eat meat, eggs and dairy"
that's veganism. you're describing veganism. veganism is not eating meat, eggs or dairy. "I'm not human, I'm Homo sapiens."
>Problem is that words lose their meaning over time, vegan for example being associated with the preachy type, people already expect you to act like that if you use the label
but that's literally not what the word means though. you can be a vegan and not "act" like how they're generally expected to act.
>Lgbt propaganda is behavior standards anon
no, they're not. it's advocacy, not a particular set of rules for gay people to follow.
>A lot of things is pushed along with the lgbt ideology, like totally unrelated democrat stuff
yeah, no you've said that before, but you haven't explained how adding an optional signifier of support for queer people is inherently predatory. there's a difference.

1.) all chocolate that is produced on a commercial level is produced for money regardless of quality, that doesn't make any sense.
2.) the lgbt flag is literally just a signifier of support for gay rights. that's literally it. there's nothing selective about it.

What matters is not what's in the dictionary, but what's understood

Imagine shouting really loud "I'M REALLY GAY", people will think you are really homosexual instead of the old definition that would be really happy (like when Johnny Comes Marching Home)

Come on anon, if you tell someone you are "LGBT" they expect you to follow a certain behavior, if you say you are "LGBT" while not following it you are marginalized, the loudest groups and companies do OWN the meaning of the word

How do you even say you are the village people type of gay without saying 'village people type of gay'? The word macho works way better than the word gay in this case

you're right, I stand corrected. veganism is literally not eating meat as well as other animal byproducts. a central argument still stands: you're a vegan if you don't eat meat or animal byproducts, regardless of whether or not you're a "preachy" person.

Any other year you could make this argument, but I don't think it's true in this case. Tons of companies have cancelled any sort of pride month or LGBT support due to the rabid chud menace. Not even in a subtle way either, just instant switch as soon as the regime changed. And Tim Apple is gay, so.

no. it's not about how gays should "be" in general, but rather how they should be perceived by others regardless of their behavior. queer advocacy is aimed at people who are not queer, obviously. otherwise you'd be defeating the purpose. it's about achieving and securing social progress, not regulating the behavior of the homosexual.

>>105597052
> What matters is not what's in the dictionary, but what's understood
dictionaries are descriptivist, not prescriptivist. how they define words is informed by how people generally understand them in the first place, which is why dictionary definitions are helpful in instances like these.
>Imagine shouting really loud "I'M REALLY GAY", people will think you are really homosexual instead of the old definition that would be really happy (like when Johnny Comes Marching Home)
yeah, because at this point, gay has come to mean homosexual, homoromantic or both. this isn't a revelation.
>Come on anon, if you tell someone you are "LGBT" they expect you to follow a certain behavior,
yes, that behavior is engaging in sexual or romantic relationships that differ from the statistical norm particularly relating to gender identity and attraction. anything more than that is just stereotyping.
>if you say you are "LGBT" while not following it
following what? you're not making any sense.
>you are marginalized,
not really. people might disagree with your political views but that doesn't influence your categorization as LGBT+.
LGBT people will tell you that LGBT people deserve rights, yes including the ones that voted for Trump. that's kinda the point of the whole thing.
>the loudest groups and companies do OWN the meaning of the word
no, they don't. they can't. it's not a trademark. it's not an intellectual property.

I have, on multiple occasions. this didn't seem to require classification because it seemed clear enough. all you've done is say "that's not what I meant" without clarifying what it is that you DID mean. somehow that's my fault for not prompting you to even though you were free to if you felt you were being misunderstood.
the only reason you haven't and still won't clarify your position is because you can't. you're not trying to communicate, you're trying to win. you're just evading argumentative maneuvers.

you presented two statements I made that, on their surface, appear contradictory even though in actuality they aren't. you did this without any further elaboration in anticipation that this presentation would be interpreted as some attempted juxtaposition highlighting a rift between the two, and when I REASONABLY ASSUMED this because your signals weren't as ambiguous as you think they were and countered the position you put forward, you dropped it entirely and explained that that actually wasn't the argument you were putting forward at all. but then refused to elaborate there too. and still won't until you're explicitly asked.

you LITERALLY do not have an argument. not a static one, at least. not until you prove you do. but you won't, because you can't.

That was not the argument I made. That came AFTER you made the assumption.

You're confusing winning the argument with being correct. You still have not redressed your false assumption.

I have to say I admire the rigidity in your thinking. maybe you ARE autistic after all.

so we both agree I won the argument.
the reason I won is because I'm correct. of course you'll disagree, but what do you know? you lost. cry about it.

Replace "the" argument with "my" argument. You won because nobody was opposing you, anon. Quite literally nobody has argued against the false assumption you made.

"the thing" is being very obviously intellectually dishonest.
see how easy it was for me to just go ahead and proactively clarify my position for you beyond merely answering the question with a simple "yes" or "no?" you can do it too. I believe in you!

>>105597786
overly rigid thinking is very literally a symptom of autism listed in the dsm. I didn't say anything about consistency.

anon do you really think if you just keep doubling down on the obvious backtrack it'll look more convincing eventually?

Still waiting for you to redress your assumption. The moment you do that is the moment the discussion can continue.

>Still waiting for you to redress your assumption.
you'll be waiting until you're on your deathbed. assumptions are good when they're reasonable, you're just a liar and a dipshit. the discussion could continue whenever you want, but you don't really want it to because it wouldn't benefit you to make a statement you have to actually commit to and we both know it.

The thing about dealing with autists is that you have to remind them that they are communicating, not dictating. They have a tendency to think their thoughts are the only relevant and important factor.

lmao, but that's the fun part: it wasn't unreasonable! and you explaining yourself without waiting for me to explicitly ask you to or admit that my assumption was unreasonable when it was actually perfectly logical isn't "giving way" to anything. and it's weird that you interpret it as some sort of power play. it's just communication. but, again, effective communication would actually work against you in this instance, which is why you refuse to "give way" to it. fucking lmfao
