QTPOCโ> QPOC seems like a downgrade tbh
exactly, I just sense less people welcoming it and yeah, all credit to QTPOC & ballroom culture for originating the term, we should always know & be respectful of the roots of our lingo, queer slang & AAVE are pretty inextricably intertwined but afaik the term is not problematic for general use?

Right, but as I said, I feel the progress flag has *worsened* the problem, and made an even *less* inclusive flag, because now it suggests that anything not explicitly represented is excluded, and you canโt fit trans, QTPoC, bi, ace, intersex, etc *all* on the flag, you know? I like when inclusive..
