Check the date on that last RT. That's a _year and a half ago_.
The black striped trans flag is older than you think and has connotations that you're not thinking of, so maybe _don't_ shit on nonbinary people for bringing them up to you, thanks.
@KS
I'm looking up the flag, and I've found examples of it representing black trans people from august 2016, which is not too long after the start of mastodon (Mar 2016)

although perhaps it was a case of convergent evolution, since in the examples I found mentions about the overwriting of the enby stripe were made?
@marlyn convergent evolution sounds about right, given the first context I ever saw it in was the nb-phobic one
