Elon Musk is going to try to rebrand as a centrist now and will only be able to do so if everyone just ignores his past year of not only openly being a nazi but funding and endorsing every extreme far right political party in Europe

And in 2024 the Two-Spirit symbol was added to the flag.

Two-Spirit, a translation of the Anishinaabemowin term niizh manidoowag, refers to a person who embodies both a masculine and feminine spirit. Developed in 1990 as a way of including historic Indigenous non binary and trans people
