What's up with the popularity of those

Unsure if this is sarcasm or not, but the name of this instance is also what IKEA calls that stuffed animal - BLÅHAJ (pronounced blow high, translates directly to blue shark).

No I know, but that's part of the same meme, I wonder where the whole popularity comes from

Afaik, it became a trans symbol because it has the same colors as the trans flag. (Blue, pink and white)
