They did it this way because if you stack the flag together 4 times the grey lines make a swastika. That’s what this flag is.

How did you type that letter

u/flynnfx Jun 01 '25

I take it you mean the ű , yes?

I'm on Android, so if may be different for you.

However, on Android, you long-press the letter and you will get different versions for different languages.

Like for o , I can also get ọ , œ , ő , ò and others.

For e , I can also get é , ê , ē , ę and others.

a - æ ā ª â and others

So, when you long-depress the letter, a little colum opens up, without releasing the long-press, slide your finger to the version you want.

I didn't post all the different versions for each letters, there's quite a few.

Interesting. It looks different from my options. I was just wondering!

Hey guys, thanks for giving me another reason to dislike the progress flag! The traditional one is far better and not divisive.

This is reaching considering the Nazis killed trans people.

My dude, as the LGBTQ+ flag has the same base pattern as OP's post, they are merely showing how stacking 4 flags gets you a swastika, not that the pride flag has anything to do with the swastika. I hope that helps.

Apologies. There are terfs that try to conflate Nazism and trans people and as a trans woman it puts me on the defensive.

u/AHRA1225 May 30 '25

I’m not trying to conflate them. Just pointing out how the flag in the OPs pic was copy and used just like the pride flag was and it was done with the purpose of being antagonistic and incorporating the nazi symbol

Hey, man, the fact that you decided on voluntary castration doesn't automatically make you always right. Wait, or does it?🤔

u/ProletarianPride May 31 '25

It's too bad you don't identify as someone with original shit to say.
