My closest guess is that it's a tankie viewpoint. But I think the real answer is that it was just made as a joke. The gay/trans flags being on opposite sides and the UK being on both sides seems pretty on the nose.
That’s my guess as well, but I feel too many flags on the right don’t match the core tankie bs. Biden ? Vatican ?
Putting Cuba and Venezuela opposed to China tells us its not a ml perspective.
UK on both sides, US and Israel opposite (???)
UK fighting against a situation it created seems honestly correct
Chaos is a ladder
Tbh the idea of tankies idolising freedom and Jesus seems pretty wild.
There are quite a lot of gay people who are anti trans.
Which is incomprehensible to me, but it is a thing.
Which is funny, because basically all the cis lesbians I know irl are pretty staunchly against terfs.
Colloquially known as "pick me gays"
Like I said, I don't think that's the real answer, I think it was made as a joke.
I'm also not really passing judgement on tankies by saying that, it's just the closest match I can make between that meme and a coherent ideology.
I don't see much point of beefing with tankies in general.
