Show me the straight line, honey (the poles don’t count) 😘

I could post thousands more, but I think I’ve made my point.

If your rainbow’s straight, you need to fly your flag!

❤️🏳️‍🌈💋

.... You really don't see the lines of the various bars of the rainbow in those flags as being straight lines?

Perhaps you’re just seeing what you want to see 😉❤️🏳️‍🌈

What? Okay let's just come at it from this angle. The red bar at the top. Is it curved or straight?

In every one of the pics above, it’s all flappy and wavey. Even here in this emoji 🏳️‍🌈 it’s nice and curvy.

If you’re them seeing straight, it’s because you want to. 😘

Damn you and your gay logic. This is the kind of trickery Republicans fear.

You win this round

Yes, but they can be won over with better education and rainbows and using trickery for entertainment purposes as flamboyant magicians with buxom assistants.

Which is why the republicans fear them. Lure them in with those things then BAM hit them with the ol education trap and make them better people.

Insidious really.

As if anyone here needed another reason not to use windows, lol

Lol, use Linux, it’s super gay. You’ve got to arch. Your back, that is. Also, pop, as fun to dance.

I’m not even gonna mention deepin.

Wonder if that's browser specific or version specific, because that's not how I'm seeing it in Chrome on Windows 10

I just checked on Windows 11 Chrome and got the same flag I had above in Firefox. Google does have their own set of emojis, but it'd be odd for them to not render it the same on W11.

If your rainbow is straight then your flag is too erect.

*in the event of a straight rainbow, doctors recommend finding a bottom or a generous top. In extreme cases, where a straight rainbow lasts for longer than four hours, doctors recommend both. At the same time. *
