 Nazi concentration camp badges - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nazi concentration camp badges, made primarily of inverted triangles, were used in the concentration camps in the Nazi-occupied countries to identify the reason the prisoners had been placed there.
The triangles were made of fabric and were sewn on jackets and shirts of the prisoners.
The color red was probably chosen because it represented the communists, the political enemies that the Nazis hated most (and the first to be officially outlawed).

I have copied the triangle formed from the medians (it is the blue triangle) and placed in on top of the original triangle so that it would be easier to see the relationship between the two.
By finding the area of the purple triangle versus the area of the pink triangle, we see that the area of the larger one is four-thirds the area of the smaller one.
Since the smaller triangle, the yellow one, is constructed using the medians of the pink triangle, we know that the ratio of the areas between the two triangles is a constant.....the larger one is four-thirds bigger than the smaller one.

In Germany and all the countries occupied and controlled by the Germans, or allied with Germany, from about 1934 to the end of World War II in 1945, Jews were required to wear distinguishing markings which immediately identified them as "the other." The marking Jews were required to wear was the Star of David.
The markings were most often in the form of a triangle, and it was the color which identified the inmate according to whatever camp hierarchy was in effect.
Homosexuals were required to wear a pink triangle, and it was from this that the homosexual populations of most countries today continue to use the pink triangle as a symbol of their sexual orientation.

In any case, the pink triangle is definitely a symbol very closely connected to oppression and the fight against it, and stands as a vow never to let another Holocaust happen again.
It may have been added as a foil for pink- pink for girls and blue for boys (because bisexuals have attractions to both), with the overlapping purple triangle (purple has always been a very prominent color in te gay pride movement) representing the middleground that bisexuals fall into.
Thus the overlap between the pink and blue triangles is the purple triangle of bisexuality.
