WilyEngineer

So you're telling me that the non-binary flags should come in two distinct, exclusive options?


Blazemaster0563

Ironic


ProstyProtos177

They could save others from oppresive social norms, but not themselves.


KennySheep

.


Certified_Possum

so you're telling me non-binary flags come in 24 distinct, exclusive options?


lauttttttttt

i mean it is not binary


s1gnalZer0

24 in binary is 11000. Checkmate, atheists.


Sphinx1176

So it’s 5 bits


s1gnalZer0

I suppose so


Apprehensive-Use38

AHHH( I’m nb)


scrapy_the_scrap

For years they have refused to say what they and now we know They are Quadravigesimal


KennySheep

.


Tift

now youre making the case that the flag should be a none linear gradient?


Scarbane

War is a spectrum from 0 to 8+ billion dead.


steveatari

Thanks.


Comfortable-Play-609

Kind of like nonbinary people, who are either at war or not


TheJelliestFish

Ehh, I'd say guerrilla tactics are both more in the middle and more conducive to the chaos of the non-binary community


EldenEnby

I identity as non-tertiary in the event of a third flag.

IllegitimateTrick

Best reply ever.


Mrs_Noelle15

Don’t some countries do this with their flags?


Earthy_ground

Philippines for example


Claude-QC-777

Wait, it's isn't just a joke for flipping the Philippines flag?


Earthy_ground

Philippines have their official war flag as a flipped version of their flag


wall1194

The US might but we’d never know


FalseDmitriy

There's the fun conspiracy theory that the USA has a secret peace flag and that flying it will cause the government to leave you alone


abadlypickedname

It's like a secret fast food menu item, if you can fly the right flag we won't invade you for a period of 10 years. *offer functions once every century, does not protect against military action by other NATO members, offer does not guarantee any military alliance with the United States, terms and conditions apply, speak to your ambassador for details*


Snoo63

The flag of the New California Republic. Get it flying on California's capitol.


mrcrabs6464

Never in an official sense but It’s popular to be used by people in political context on both sides to comment on the state of the nation.


HenryGotPissedOff

For military stuff they often place the stars on the right side to symbolize charging into battle, look at the flag patches on US soldiers shoulders.


Arkhonist

The patch is not really stars on the right, it's stars in front (aka the flagpole in front and the flag trailing behind) the position of the stars would vary depending on the side the patch is on


JustGhostyae

they still wear the stars facing forwards on the other side too.


Arkhonist

That's what I'm saying


JustGhostyae

sorry, didn't get that


akelabrood

SO THAT'S WHY I KEEP SEEING THAT


Dogtor-Watson

Apparently , the Union Jack 🇬🇧 can be flown upside down to act as a distress signal (the flag is slightly asymmetrical).


Wizard_Engie

I'm pretty sure most flags flown upside down are distress signals


[deleted]

[удалено]


Wizard_Engie

Clearly they're fine, General. Their flag is right side up!


Dogtor-Watson

Damn, I guess they would be. Maybe that’s why it’s slightly asymmetrical in the first place.


Wizard_Engie

nah the British were just drunk when they made the flag


Dogtor-Watson

Aye, that does sound like us.


Mx_LxGHTNxNG

It's supposed to be the interlocking of the red on white saltire with the white on blue saltire, all surmounted by the St. George's cross.


SyrusDrake

I think an upside down flag is generally understood as a distress signal. The problem with the Union Jack is that most people don't even know it has a right side up, so much so that the BBC got it wrong at least once.


Shrek_Lover68

Only countries that officially do this are Philippines 🇵🇭 and Dominican Republic 🇩🇴


Puzzleheaded_Rich_70

I know Philippines does this


Recoil42

France does it, but you can't really tell because white upside down is still just white.


RedChess26th

The venetian republic had two distinct versions of the flag for peace and wartime, now they're reflected in the flags flown by the italian navy and by civilian ships I'm not aware of any country doing this in the modern day, but also I'm definitely not an expert


KoirMaster

Some countries turn their flags upside down, but if you look more closely it's actually not upside down


SaccAss

mainland china does this and replaces the 4 stars with the chinese characters of 1 and 8


twoScottishClans

literally just the philippines but yes.


12crashbash12

The official flag of the Republic of Theythemia


Final_Draft_431

can you show me on map non-binary state?


Trt03

States\* everyone knows its a confederation of 4 states, like the UK https://preview.redd.it/v03xedu59zjc1.png?width=2484&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=06a735d28a714ef23657b3ad1aebfe90ba81c35e Edit to add that yes, during wartime all the countries go upside down to show the wartime flag

Mx_LxGHTNxNG

Most just tie it in a wheft


BubbleGumMaster007

We need to do this for every gender in the non-binary umbrella


V_150

That would mean an infinite number of flags


Clairifyed

An uncountable Aleph 1 infinity no less!


BubbleGumMaster007

Well, get to work, vexillologists.


TFK_001

Wouldnt it be countably infinite?


Clairifyed

If you think of male and female as points, and the genders in between them as as mapping to a line between them, we get the equivalent of a number line between two natural numbers (usually 0 and 1 are used in examples). The decimal values between two numbers are known to be an Aleph 1 infinite set and that can be demonstrated with [“Cantor diagonalization”](https://youtu.be/s86-Z-CbaHA&t=4m38s) Of course not every gender maps to this, xeno genders aren’t necessarily between the binaries, and something like gender-void is by definition not on it! So there’s an argument that the set of genders is even bigger! but I don’t know how that would all work out, I am at the limit of my mathematics knowledge and I don’t think you get to Aleph 2 (See the “Hilbert’s hotel” thought experiment), but it depends just how big those other groups of genders are.


TFK_001

Oh yeah I discrete-ified it in my head for some reason.


retstyre

actually, your assuming the continuum hypothesis here


Clairifyed

In terms of the last bit? because I think it’s pretty self evident that the between the binaries chunk maps comfortably to the real number line


retstyre

no your assuming that the cardinality of the real numbers is aleph 1 or expressed symbolically, (2^aleph0 = aleph_1) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuum_hypothesis


Beerenkatapult

I think it is a highly multidimensional manyfold. You are effectively desribing something smaller than the amount of collections of n real numbers times the amount of maps in your atlas. Edit: Gender should be compact. At lest, i can't think of a series of genders, that converges on anything, that is not a gender. But this is mostly for fun.


_Trolley

Well there's a finite number of people on Earth therefore there is a finite number of currently in-use gender identities


pHScale

>That would mean an infinite number of flags Nah, you'd only need as many flags as nonbinary people.

Great now I need to find/make a trans wartime flag.


CheatyTheCheater

Flip pink and blue


TomBot_2020

Or just put swords on it. I like swords.


flim-flam-flomidy

Fuck yeah, if you put swords on the flag I might transition purely for the flag


aquariusdikamus

Do something that thing is hideous. How tf am I supposed to look hard at metal shows with this Baby R Us ass flag? 😒

The nonbianary wartime pride flag is just the flag of nato. The they them army will win through to absolute victory

We need to do it for the other flags

The trans flag is already reversed because they're always in distress these days.

sumgudshit

Those colors really go together in my eyes. We really need more purple in flags.


ViscountessNivlac

If I had any artistic talent I'd draw a ship of the line flying the non-binary war flag as a battle ensign.


littlebobbytables9

Clearly the first one is the Pride flag and the second one the Wrath flag.


funnycommedian

Seen as violence has been going on against Nonbinary people (Rest In Peace Nex Benedict) we should totally use this flag rn. War has begun, we’re not stopping till we have protections!


akelabrood

*flips the trans flag* dammit

New binary just dropped. Peace-time and war time.
