It's not the stars-and-bars, for christssake. The rainbow flag has always just been a "pride" flag. Even if you want to be reductive about it, it wasn't designed with anything other than gayness in mind. If you see that as the flag of your enemy, you're saying more about yourself than the state of US identity politics.
I've had to play the "queer moderate" role on this site more times than I'd care to admit, but your perspective on this topic completely confuses me. You're mad that... queer progressives are now too queer and progressive? Literally your last three comments have been about mocking a "mindset that shall not be named" for crimes that are substantiated on nothing other than racism and presupposed conflict. The irony is suffocating your point here, but I'd still like to hear your itemized list of complaints about this enemy host that rallies under the rainbow flag.
