“An image showing blue and yellow stripes added to the Pride flag was posted satirically by a Twitter user.
The move to include the blue and yellow colours in the flag comes a week after several fact-checking organizations including Snopes, Reuters, and KnowYourMeme claimed that the colours of the Ukrainian flag have not been added to the official pride flag.
It is set to fly in this year’s “March & Parade.” The flag is featured on the official page of Dublin LGBTQ+ Pride, which was funded and sponsored by numerous government organizations and private entities in Ireland. Organizers of Dublin’s gay pride parade in Ireland have added the blue and yellow colours of the Ukrainian flag to the rainbow flag in their attempt to be as inclusive as possible. A gay pride parade in Europe has added the colours of the Ukrainian flag to the new progressive LGBTQ+ rainbow flag - the one that includes the pastel pink and blue transgender colours, the intersex symbol, as well as the black and brown colours supporting the Black Lives Matter movement.
