Does anyone know what this flag means? (lemmy.ca)

I saw a convoy of about 30 cars on the highway back in October. I looked it up and found nothing. Then I see a Reddit post in /r/vexillollogy with the same flag and no useful answers.

It's so weird that people bought like 100 of these flags and there is no info on them at all!

I flipped the picture to make the flag the right way.

That depends on what you mean by not hurting anyone with that belief. You can believe in whatever you want if it honestly doesn't hurt anyone else, but that's not usually how it goes. Just leaving a comment saying you dislike trans people is hurtful. Imagine scrolling through a comment section and seeing random comments where people say they hate that you exist.

How can you reconcile believing they have the right to exist with not liking that they exist? How is that functionally any different?

Isn't it even more "equal" to accept people's right to have opinions you don't like?

See the Paradox of Tolerance.

Paradox of Tolerance

Yes that's exactly what I was referring to.

They should be tolerant of people that don't agree with them, and vice versa. But that shouldn't IMO mean we have to like it or be banned from a discussion just because of a difference of opinion... but I have been seeing a hair trigger on anyone even remotely disagreeing on this.
