Recovering Radqueer Flag:

Context:

Anti-radqueers seem to use “radqueer survivor” to mean “I survived being radqueer” and “recovering radqueer” as “I am a recovering ex-radqueer” (similarly to how ‘I’m a recovering (alcoholic/addict)’ is used). The terms above (which re-define the original terminology to be pro-radqueer) were coined during a span of time where it was really common to compare the radqueer community to a cult.
