But The Balkabs Are What They Are So I Don't Even Care Anymore - Blog Posts

Thanks! About the symbol, maybe we can all add our own for some extra national pride. I sure as hell would NOT mind a sun on there, tho that very well could be a slippery slope considering where exactly we live

My bad attempt at making flags

So some days ago, I saw this post on reddit.

This user made a flag for queer slavic people :D. That's pretty cool! However, there are some things that I didn't like about the design. First of I didn't like how it was all pastel, I mean it makes sense because this was posted on a subreddit for xenogenders and from what I've seen online a lot of flags for xenogenders use pastel colors. Second of all, I really don't understand why they added pierogi. I mean, pierogi is a slavic dish but only in poland, Ukraine, and Russia (am I wrong? Too lazy to check right) and here in the balkans, it kind of isn't.

So here's my attempt to make a flag that was heavily inspired by the reddit user above! All creative credit goes to u/somethingisbread! This isn't me stealing their design this is just me editing it as a slavic queer.

It's basically the same thing as the flag in the reddit post. The only difference is that I didn't make the colors pastel, and I removed pierogi. I wanted to add a different symbol to represent queer slavic people. I want to add an owl to represent our slavic mythology and paganism and also our slavic brother/sisterhood because in every slavic language, we have the same word for owl (that is sova/сова). Unfortunately, I currently can't find a good owl design that would go well with the flag.

The blue, red, and white represent the pan slavic colors, and the lavender represents queerness.
