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 ?

UK on both sides, US and Israel opposite (???)

Putting Cuba and Venezuela opposed to China tells us its not a ml perspective.

UK fighting against a situation it created seems honestly correct

There are quite a lot of gay people who are anti trans.

Which is incomprehensible to me, but it is a thing.

A lot of terfs are lesbians (or at least are using lesbians as a reason to be against transpeople)

Which is funny, because basically all the cis lesbians I know irl are pretty staunchly against terfs.

Colloquially known as "pick me gays"

Tbh the idea of tankies idolising freedom and Jesus seems pretty wild.
