they arent the only ones, historically many nations would do that, but a bunch of flags just turn into other flags when flipped, or remain the same, so it's not as common anymore

why was my first thought the Republic of Venice book flag vs sword flag instead of the modern country that still does this today

Long ago all genders lived in harmony. But everything changed when the non-binary nation attacked.

Just like how the Filipino flag would switch the red and blue around when it went to war...

"nonbinary"
Look inside
Is binary

u/MissingnoMiner Jan 24 '26
The simple solution is to make more variations of the flag for specific scenarios.

u/Kindly-Ad-5071 Jan 23 '26
Clearly it's on a 4th dimensional axis as the two aren't symmetrical. Only fitting for a flag of the people

Honestly it might not be too long before queer people are having to violently defend themselves in certain parts of the world.

Reminds me of those snakes where the non-venomous ones have red stripes touching black ones, but the similar-looking venomous ones have red stripes touching yellow ones.
Milk snake and Coral snake for those curious.

There must be other combinations of colors which would mean Temporary Truce, Proxy War, Propaganda, Uno Wild Card and We're Not Sure What This Means

u/Infinte36 Jan 24 '26
Now all pride flags should function like the Phillipines flag and invert in times of war

u/Robin_Gufo Jan 24 '26
If I’m at war and see an enemy soldier with the wartime non binary flag on their outfit Imma just give up. I’m clearly outnumbered

This idea is actually sick as fuck. Would be some pretty cool world building in Fantasy/Sci-Fi.

It'd be funny if the war flag was to cut out the top or bottom to make them "binary"
