    This overall picture is def deliberate trolling, but there's a concerning amount of LGBTQ+ who would be willing to throw their trans siblings under the bus, and have even proposed removing T from LGBT. So like very much possible.

    Usually the play on these is to pick the opposite side to Israel but this one's tough bc Israel's on both sides.

    I'm picking the left side bc China had brain-meltingly bad foreign policy during this era and there's also Rhodesia and apartheid South Africa on the right.

    My closest guess is that it's a tankie viewpoint. But I think the real answer is that it was just made as a joke. The gay/trans flags being on opposite sides and the UK being on both sides seems pretty on the nose.

    That’s my guess as well, but I feel too many flags on the right don’t match the core tankie bs. Biden ? Vatican ?

    There are quite a lot of gay people who are anti trans.

    Which is incomprehensible to me, but it is a thing.

    Like I said, I don't think that's the real answer, I think it was made as a joke.

    I'm also not really passing judgement on tankies by saying that, it's just the closest match I can make between that meme and a coherent ideology.

    I don't see much point of beefing with tankies in general.

    This could easily be the allies of two of the 20 sides in the Libyan or Syrian civil wars.

    Love the Easter egg of the Event Horizon version of the Australian flag.

    Also Mississippi. Honestly I expected to see both Mississippi flags on there when I noticed the one (they recently changed from having the confederate flag on theirs to one with a flower they're particularly fond of)

    The devil has the EU and Germany. According to my calculations, that makes two Germanys.

    This is easy. US and EU and Ukraine and Taiwan on Satan's side. UK playing both sides. France, DPRK, ROK, Palestine, Israel all on Jesus side.

    Answer is choose China. From Brother where are't thou... They are the only ones remaining unaffiliated.

    I'm sorry but stating China and Russia as freedom bastions is some tankie apologist bullshit.

    Sure but I feel that is offset by the NATO/Ukraine flag, also the fuck is Mississippi doing there.

    And Biden, which was definitely opposed by China and Russia if only because they explicitly endorsed Trump over the Ukraine and TikTok policies.

  • Also going to point out that the flag of the Vatican or Papal States is on its just that it blends in with the white of Jesus's clothes. Also I just noticed what I think is the aboriginal Australian flag. Pretty sure this is just a shit post meme meant to confuse folks who are into vexillology.

    Wow, Mexico is on the evil side? I thought they were neutral always.

    The fact that it’s Jesus ensures it’s not neutral.

    Also, given how white Jesus is, it hints at a certain direction.

    So basically, everyone allied with China/Russia (the usual dictators, and shitty ideologies, along with a few unfortunate victims such as palestine), vs all th- nwm, it puts trans vs gay. This makes no fucking sense.

    EDIT: The only pattern I notice is that the left side is all "vanilla" and "boring", while the right is cray cray.

    This reflects many lemmy users yes it is quite accurate in that sense... It has to be made by a lemmy-typical type intelligence It's kinda shocking as a kinda new lemmy user you aren't just drawing your own version. I think you aren't implying shit is more complex then black and white, I think you are implying the binary map was drawn wrong.
