Good. Fuck the thought police. Fuck the life police.
And, to take it one step further generalized: fuck the police.
If you do, use protection. Wouldn’t want to get what they have.
Swine flu?
Trapped in an abusive relationship.
Remember, if they had to clarify an exception to the rule, it's not that uncommon.
And let's be honest, they'll just say everything is "for official use"
Conservatives: "bunch of triggered snowflake libs"
Also conservatives: literally triggered by the visible color spectrum
You would think, given their "we're the hard working true Americans" shtick, that they would see just how hard the LGBTQ+ community fights for their rights and begin to respect them for it.
But no, because they don't have any honor ; they're just hateful troglodytes that would be better off dead.
Rainbow road! Let's blue shell the homophobes 😂
Edit: I'm not sure how to write it. LGBTQ+-phobes?
The proper way to write it is either F A S C I S T or B I G O T. There are other, more colorful spellings that are also good but those two are the bread & butter
Alternatively, you can just abbreviate it as GOP.
Only if you only mean the American ones.
Anyway, let's start blasting
i quite like queerphobes, very funny.
Makes it sound like you hate fairies or some shit.
Fairyphobe would be absolutely amazing
But I really am afraid of my baby being replaced with a changeling!
Geez, how intolerant!
Do you remember what happened the last time the fae made a major incursion into this world?
Endless bad high school productions of A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Do we need to repeat that horror?
No Sir, you're right Sir. 😞
Just dont, and it wont, ez pz
yeah, i could back that.
Doesn't sound as good though.
What about queerophobes? Lol
Tru, although I think at this point we're shitposting, so
A good move by the LGBTQ community there.
I'm afraid there will be some crazy nazi conservatives ready to bomb the bridge because of that "evil rainbow".
"That was a lone wolf."
"Nobody saw that coming."
"He was always so peaceful."
"He's an elder of my church."
"Just one bad apple."
"A rare occurrence."
-- any time a white male engages in domestic terrorism
I read that as a poem, is it supposed to be one? It's pretty good regardless of if that was intentional lol.
I'm sure someone much more talented than me can make it into a heiku
I think the last white domestic terrorists to be called terrorists were the unibomber and Timothy McVeigh.
Both were in the 80s - 90s iirc. For some reason since 9/11 the word terrorist has been reserved for brown people who may or may not be Muslim and it's really fucking us over.
At the same time people have been burning down and bombing abortion clinics since the late 70's and that has never been called out as terrorism, or more accurately christian terrorism either.
I guess my point is that the US government sucks at indentifying/dealing with domestic terrorists and openly turn a blind eye to privileged groups committing atrocities domestically.
Going after power substations (again) is more likely IMO. It’s an easy to commit crime and the kind of bigots that have a problem with Pride are also the kind of bigots that keep a lot of white nationalist tactics in their toolbox.
Yall Queda and the Gravy Seals just aren't that strategically competent with their slice of plain white bread class of domestic terrorism, not without some foreign intelligence command and control running them.
It's Pride, if they wanted to hurt LGBT people and burn some shit down, they don't need any more provocation. If they want to do it, they'll do it.
Fucking legends.
Much respect to these heroes.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
