What did they do to our flag? 
Okay, just googled this. Apparently, Philadelphia decided to deface the rainbow flag. They claim it was to include “black & brown people.” Except that the colors of the rainbow in the flag don’t stand for anyone in particular. It’s not like red is gays and green is bisexuals. 1/
Also, when the flag was created, a very long time ago, it’s not like it was devoted to only white LGBT people. It’s a rainbow. All the colors of the spectrum. It represents everybody. Making one part of the flag about only one group defeats the entire purpose of the rainbow. 2/
At some point, I just wish we would stop trying to rename and rebrand everybody. Every single year the abbreviation for the LGBT community changes, and nobody knows how or why. Then we have BIPOC, and Latinx, and now we have a new rainbow that is no longer the rainbow. 3/
Can we focus on the actual issues for once? So much time is spent coming up with the perfect rebranding, while so little is spent on actually making life better for anyone in any of our communities. It gets so tiresome. 4/
