The base flag is always just the rainbow. The other additions are meant to highlight whatever needs highlighting. In LGBTQA+ contexts, you can add the trans and poc and whatnot because those are marginalised groups that deserve some extra visibility.
yeah, its to the point where when I see a rainbow flag I automatically go “This is not for me, this person is not safe”
Same with the still prelavent “Love is love” slogans. That’s great, but I’m aroace and trans so uhhh? Guess I’m not included. Better be safe than deal with a transphobe (and be sorry)

They made a choice to use a space typically reserved for POC and trans people.
Reserved by whom? The CEO of gay? The rainbow includes everyone already.
As long as there are transphobes flying the rainbow flag, no it doesn’t.
This! People don’t seem to understand that there is transphobia in the queer community and it’s bad :(
