'Anti-gay sentiments are back in fashion. And the best way to combat this is to remind everyone that the Progress Pride flag, and the corporate orgy that accompanies it, is not in the interests of gay people.'

@@WhatDemocracyYou’re misrepresenting what type of pride it is. They are taking pride in themselves and accepting themselves for who they are, and I, as a gay person, hope you as a straight person take pride in yourself too, for being different to me. It isn’t about being superior. It’s about being proud of yourself. It’s a deeply healthy way to think about yourself. Overall I disagree with the recent movement, but I think a lot of straight people are using this as an opportunity to confront pride itself, when the original idea of it is completely harmless and healthy for gay people. Everyone should be proud of who they are. And gay people have never said straight people shouldn’t be proud aswell.

I oppose pride month and hate the so-called LGBTQIAA2+xyz community that supposedly took it over. I never celebrated pride, because I think it's nonsense. I just want equality. But even a night out with friends in cafes and bars specifically meant for gay men is not possible any more. Everywhere is this toxic ideology. I'm a gay man, but I'm not in the community. I don't want to.

[@ghenulo]

Dutch is such a cute language. I wonder if Netherlanders find natives speaking Dutch as cute as I do or if it just sounds like the default, like when I hear General American English.

[@mahae_16]

That flag never made sense because it was stolen. Which proves the real purpose of all this charade even from the beginning.

[@ghenulo]

From whom?

[@6teeth318]

No. The pride flag NEVER made sense. Never.

[@incurableromantic4006]

"Remember when the pride flag made sense?" No. Having a flag for your sexual preferences was always pretty weird.

[@davidmurray6070]

Very sad. As all of this is beginning to undermine the gains that have been made over the past several decades. Societal resentment is growing. There needs to be a balance.

We reclaim the Rainbow 🌈 for it's original meaning and representation of the Covenant God made to humanity not to destroy His creation by flood! This is the Biblical meaning of the Rainbow.

[@tomsherwood4650]

IF you put a big swatika in the middle of that flag they would abandon it with much fury.

[@oliverhug3]

Your Biblical meaning makes as much sense as the „gender souls are born into a wrong body“ doctrine trans activists spouting.

[@deepakmenon6720]

If you want to be religious, then the rainbow belongs to the Hindus, the oldest living religion in the world. So how about we just leave rainbows alone and just consider them as a scientific phenomenon?

[@Salt_and_Light_UK]

Judeo Christian origin is the beginning of the universe, which is hard to get older than that 😊

[@deepakmenon6720]

@@Salt_and_Light_UK yeah sure it is lmao. Do you even know how old the vedas are? It existed much bdfore christianity and jesus was even a thing. Just because you have a book that says it started when the universe began doesn't mean that's the truth.

[@s.susanmarandi9080]

No, the pride flag never made sense. Don't pretend it did; that's part of the problem.

[@jonathanpage7710]

As a gay man, i no longer feel any connection with the lgbtxyzyadayayada symbol. It does not represent me in any way. Pride .... Forget it.

[@joaopedrobaggio4475]

I am not against gays or lesbians, i don't support the LGBT activism who had became authoritarian and disrespectful, they are always saying that they were born this way, but they must remember that they were born because a straight relashionship. And i know that most gays and lesbians people are leaving the movement.

[@Adam-sd2ow]

Pure ego now. It's Arrogance month. Blame the current generation who live to be validated by others instead of getting on with their lives.

[@theblackhand1]

Thats why they are recruiting children. Seeing as they are self sterilising or homosexual. So to swell their numbers they are infiltrating schools to recruit the next batch

[@danelwind2574]

Indeed, I separated from the movement when I realized that nowadays, they are imposing ideologies.

[@joaopedrobaggio4475]

@@danelwind2574 are you a gay man?

[@Patches748]

While I agree about the authoritarianism of the left, and have left the movement myself, I don’t think queer people’s existence being contingent on straight relationships says anything inherent about how we should go about viewing those relationships.

[@jaydeeh77]

Very, very well said! 💯

[@alanrandell8597]

BRAVO!👏 As a gay man I totally agree with everything Andrew said. Lgbqi+WTFwe'retakingoverthealphabet community leave our flag alone. You do not speak for me as a gay man!

[@pamelarw58]

Thank you Andrew!!! I totally agree with your comments as the original Rainbow Flag was designed to represent Gay Freedom Celebration in late 70s. 🏳‍🌈 🇦🇺 "Gilbert Baker designed the rainbow flag for the 1978 San Francisco's Gay Freedom Celebration. In the original eight-colour version, pink stood for sexuality, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for the sun, green for nature, turquoise for art, indigo for harmony and violet for the soul".

[@gavinbrando8255]

You can tell that the cool gay people who design clothes and all the other cool shiiit are not with these other interlopers. That's why the flag looks ridiculous now instead of striking a pose, there's nothing to it... VOGUE!!!

[@drbalbon7332]

It's interesting that the UK's attitude towards the LGBT communities was becoming more accepting and positive over the years, but then stalled and began going down gradually around 2019. It's almost as if something happened...

[@littlemascara6385]

This is perfect. Thank you Andrew!

[@sparecash7199]

It goes to show just by looking at that flag, that they will ‘shatter’ themselves into tiny little pieces until they destroy themselves! The Microsoft flag denotes this perfectly!

[@stru9286]

Welcome to the wonderful world of “identity politics” 🤣🤡

[@thetempter9023]

It's ironic the fish thing I bring up this point all the time there are actually animals that can change sex. None of them are mammals and definitely not humans.

[@rebeccaconlon9743]

Yep, amphibians, fish, worms and snails all tend to hold stem cells or both sexual organs. But no mammals, turns out it takes a lot more energy to change gender and is a lot more involved than just simply bits and hormones... as mammals and birds are the only ones who seem to hold greater intelligence and emotion. Probably because of where and how long evolved.

[@rcg1111]

No. It's never made sense. That's like saying 'Remember when the fall of Rome was just beginning?'

[@Mark_Dyer1]

ANDREW: I live near Taunton, in Somerset, and we have an entire Local Government-funded NGO devoted to 'Pride'. As an old homosexual man, who has shared forty years with another, I have noticed there seems to be an absence of SEX in all of their pronouncements and publicity. The 'rainbow' is used, and sold, on the basis that 'children' can be involved: and this raises my hackles. Being homosexual is like being heterosexual: it is a SEXUALITY. So why is sex so absent from all the 'Pride' shenannigans? What are the celebrants 'proud' of? As you say, this all once had a point: but since the COMMUNISTS took over, it has lost all meaning.

[@rebeccaconlon9743]

Yep, they use it to indoctrinate the children or groom them. In a lot of these events there's a lot of it hidden away. The reason why I appose drag Queens, is that they are drug addicted sex workers, I dont want children around them. The same way I wouldn't take a child to a strip show... many activist groups have grooming scandals where older men take advantage of confused teens.

[@martinspeer262]

It's insanity..that's ALL it is and I'm bi-sexual and I used to go to Pride marches and festival in the 90s but count me out of that NONSENSE. Propaganda and indoctrination and shoving my sexuality in other people's faces is just not my thing and don't even get me started on drag queens..talentless, hideous and just crude. I also liked drag shows back in the days when some old gal did a bit of a sing a long in a pub in East London..I could name a few but it doesn't really matter .but the main thing it was adults only that were present and it was a bit of harmless fun. Nowadays it's a political and very sinister agenda and you can't even watch a soap or a drama program on the telly anymore without being confronted with that garbage ..it's all PROPAGANDA

[@ghenulo]

I might have gone if there were pride events back then (maybe not in the 90s, but in the naughts), but by the time there were pride events in the small town in which I live, I was so over this "community".

You see gender conversion therapy is alive and well if you are converting to trans . Gays conversion therapy has never been healthier either .

[@alch3mi5t.]

The illegality of Homosexuality in Scotland until 1980 wasn't because of Scotland. It was because Scotland didn't have the ability to make any laws in Scotland. UK Government left it illegal in Scotland. Scotland got it's limited power in 1997 and were proudly the first country in the UK to implement civil partnerships, then even more proudly, incorporate gay marriage into our society.

[@sudenims5235]

Then proudly tried to make it legal for men that identify as women to go into women’s safe spaces, refuges, jails, sports. Thankfully it was stopped at the last minute because a double r*pist was trying to infiltrate a women’s jail. Common sense prevailed-for the moment.

[@deniseg-hill1730]

it really pisses me off that any group could have the arrogance of taking over something like the rainbow, 1 of the oldest features of earth and something that PREDATES ALL LIFE. as an artist this means if i was to make something with rainbow colours it would be seen as gay when i just want to use a spectrum of colours

[@robhunt-watts8908]
