And it's not just LGBT+ folks on the left. It's all of us with a less than $billion net worth.
We let this shit go on, we're all fucked.

What do the scissors on pink’s shirt mean?
TQ cut off from LGBTQ
Is that an actual group, like LGB that are unsupportive of TQ?
Sadly, yes. There's a pretty notorious transphobic organization calling themselves the LGB Alliance, with the aim of trying to drive a wedge.
I guess I can see how it gets messy when you have to figure out visibility. Like could it be seen as concern over the TQ “Not All Men-ing” the movement?
I know that’s a stretch…
Also can I ask an ignorant question from the outside? I always thought the rainbow flag was future-proofed and didn’t understand adding other colors. The rainbow is already the full spectrum of visible light meaning you could change the messaging to include others and keep the same symbol. Thoughts?
The additions are to highlight the parts of our community that are typically underrepresented, more vulnerable, and facing higher levels of discrimination (i.e. trans people, intersex people, and queer people of color).
It also helps weed out the "LGB without the T" assholes. As a trans woman, seeing just the rainbow flag flying somewhere often makes me think "is this actually a safe place, or do they hate me more than the place next door with no flag?" Usually that isn't the case, but the doubt exists, and it sucks.
Yes. Even some US government websites updated from LGBTQ to LGB. The travel information page is now down to just "Gay and Lesbian travelers."
what is this?....
It’s a comic mocking the foolishness of trans exclusionary LGB community members that refuse to realize that once the trans boogeyman is excised, they’re next.
