Esperanto flag.

Holy typo… does the one world not have proofreaders?

I love the initiative, I understand the transparency, although it doesn't really look that great imo.

Is there information on the license of this flag? Not how/if clear you can reproduce it legally.

The apotheosis of Reddit vexillology where all flag symbolism maps to geographical features.

Will we put this flag on the moon?

How would we represent this as a sticker on a vehicle?

White outline around the clear field w blue dot?

What if we took Japan’s flag, imagined it printed on paper, but made the dot blue?

The Empire of the Rising Blue Ink Dot (of the unelected EU bureaucracy).

That grade of blue is more like Neptune than earth, or blue giant.

It should be a different color, because this will be attached to either politics (which you don't want) or EU (which you also don't want), some completely independent color could actually trigger curiosity to look it up.

I like the direction of unity but this will probably be problematic when we eventually start to colonize other planets. I don't want our first settlers to feel discriminated, so please kindly make a new version with more universality - now that I think about it, Universal Pictures also has the world in their logo so maybe this IS universal but we probably we need Jim and Hannah in the loop as well so they can chime in, and last but not least, we need a review from the legal so I CC'd to all, expect some new ideas/requirements.

Also, can we please make it "pop"?

ps. Attaching a version I made, and this took a lot of back and forth with chatgpt because I care about this a lot, so please have a look, I think we are close to something great here!

Looking forward to seeing more from you!

ps2. when I was about to send our manufacturing guy entered the room and he said the transparency could be a problem. Some alternatives without compromising the idea would be great! They must be cheap but elegant! Thank you!!

but that's the wrong shade of blue? It'd have been great if they took the colour from "The blue marble" instead of this Turbo Pascal blue.

Modern invented flag peddlers only seek to have us fly flags of the division they seek to generate. I only fly the flag of the country I live in and give side eye to anyone that does otherwise.

Looks too much like japan’s flag.

Let’s try an earth and a sunrise behind it - half a circle sitting on the bottom of the rectangle, and a yellow circle making a sunrise on top of that, like a yolk sitting on a blue egg.

Looks like something out of 1997.

I like this. And furthermore, it is my opinion that all current nation states should be dismantled.

Nothing says "I care about the earth" like a giant sheet of plastic.

Global government sounds terrible. Most people don’t live in western liberal democracies, so I assume a world government would be something other than that. I have no interest in living under a government that promises the average political, religious, personal and economic environment of the world.

ALL flags(standards/banners) are war symbols, declarations of intent to attack and of terrtory held by conquest, tribes,nations, and franchises alike. Any attemp to float the idea of a world flag is a (hidden attempt) of a declaration of total war on all countrys simultaneously, which unfortunatly is too ridiculous to even get points on style. Fashists always have some sort of fashion kink branding thing plus a cult of personality to get things going, but this one needs WAY too much explaining.

If you're going to change my mouse pointer into a circle can you at least make the activation point the centre of the circle?

As someone living in Omaha, this has just a little bit of a conflict lmao.....

the most european thing i’ve seen today

good opinion and one that most agree with

what most don't agree with: what happens next?

It’s a nice goal, but no thank you. In my opinion, more of the world needs to be all but quarantined.

>all current nation states should be dismantled.

Fun fact. Just people who live in a shitty country want that, maybe instead of change everyone else, change you own country?

Some enjoy their local cultures, customs and sovereignty and do not wish to dissolve into a homogenized nowhere-land of world culture/governance. Some people do not cheer for dystopia.

Continue with the scold though, very convincing argument so far.

It had a real Mary Poppins feel when interacting with the skinnies.

Yes and it's really easy.

Are the vast majority happy? = Good one

If not = Shitty

Example? Norway[1] = good, Sudan[2] = really..really shitty

[2] https://interactive.aljazeera.com/aje/2025/sudan-voices/

To be honest, those two are so far apart it's not even comparable.

It sounds like we just need something like..national borders, eh ;)

> If you go at light speed

I will certainly not. And even if I did — within any reachable radius there's nothing actually suitable, everything is 10+ ly away, but maybe I missed something.

Funny i live in a country where the people are the government, and with your knowledge of different country's, the future World-Government would not just be shitty but untouchable mighty. I want really small, face to face responsible governments.

> The country governments are shitty everywhere.

Compared to what?

Why would a world government be any better?

Nothing against a Coordinating body like the UN, and really small states (lets call them community's).

But there is no "we are the world, we are the children", future is probably more like US/EU/EAU (east asia union), now you have 3 big blocks fighting against each other (much higher world-ending chance). More power = more bully....

>everything that’s really important.

Yes your right, and talking...even with a enemy should be considered the base for future world-freedom.

The paradox of tolerance applies though. It helps to keep the intolerants at bay.

That's not what I have said. Imagine you have a mentally challenged brother you love dearly, who continues to run head-first against a wall. That's what it feels like. Doesn't mean I'm not aware and accepting of the reality we all live in.

Edit: And honestly, I find it a bit pathological to take the sentence you quoted upfront and not feeling similar resentment against those things. Granted, Humans are a belligerent species, but just shrugging these things away is really not an acceptable stance either.

>Resenting the real world because it doesn't live up to your make-believe fantasy world is pathological.

I dont think world-peace (more or less) is impossible, even if it's more like "Brave New World" instead of "1984".

Or maybe something like the UN with a strong peace-force and WITHOUT a security council but a real and fair democratic decision process.

And maybe the most important point, i have not seen real War-Winners (except the mil.-industrial-blabla) since the 2. World-war....just losers on both sides.

> Eventually you have to come back to the real world and learn to accept the harsh truths of the reality you find yourself inhabiting.

I don't know why I feel so much contempt for people like you. I kinda get it, you want to feel intellectually superior. You're the reasonable one, the adult in the room, etc. but seriously bro, this reality is so fucking harsh. What keeps you going? Why are you still here and going through with it?

Huh. Interesting.

Well, there are quite a lot of ants in the world, so I guess it makes sense.

Well given there's no abuse of refractive light bending it looks more like whatever frosted glass existed before liquid glass.

Also this flag has square corners.

Seems unfair to associate anything good with that abomination.

Ford Prefect as a Souvenir?

I'm sure there have been plenty of flags that haven't been vegan.

hard to change an association that has been around for millennia (literally)

He hasn't been on cortex for over a year

*cortex

Wouldn't the Esperanto of Flags be the flag of Esperanto?
