The Pink Triangle - Cruel Fate or Solidarity

I've never heard of "The Pink Triangle." Only the Burmuda one.

But in short, could you explain where it is now in this era or who's put it there to represent something?

To me, love, no matter what form, who cares about the rest. It's so rare, what's the difference where, when or how it's found. Especially when it's true

The pink triangle is as important to this time as it was in nazi time. Back then, it marked the homosexual man. In today's time, we have reclaimed it to be a symbol of pride and defiance to the ideals of the nazi party. The triangle was once a bad thing to be marked by, but like other words and such, we've reclaimed it as a pride symbol and one not to be feared. In fact, I ahve one on my right wrist with an equal sign over it.
