    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.

    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 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.
