    Cola is a reclaimed Spanish slur typically used against feminine non-heterosexual men and transfeminine people in Chilespecifically. It's also used against straight men, but only under the presumption that they could be queer.

    History

    The word cola appears to have become popular in the 50s, as a code word for homosexuals and trans women used by the police. It derives from the inversion of the word "loca" meaning "crazy woman". [1]

    The flag was created by FANDOM user IMakeFlags by request of Hiddn.Hayden on 30/7/2021. [2]

    Reclamation

    In modern times, the word has been reclaimed by Hispanics who wish to remove power from it and proudly identify as colas. However, this word is of exclusive use among non-hetero men, transfeminine people, and possibly AMAB non-binary people as well.
