And it’s not just LGBT+ folks on the left. It’s all of us with a less than $billion net worth.
We let this shit go on, we’re all fucked.

CatoblepasDividing the community further is definitely the message you should take from this 👍
Nah, fuck the rich. Though it’s probably necessary to define “rich”. In the struggle between the masses and rich fucks who want to strip the masses of any and all rights, someone who owns a home and has a middle management position isn’t “rich”, they’re still merely one serious illness away from becoming poor.
Deciding that it’s specifically the gay men’s subset of wealthy people doing what’s portrayed in the OP is kind of wild.
Well it’s just a happy coincidence I suppose that a lot of rich gay men are not only frequently republicans (some even work in the Trump admin all the way up to his cabinet) but also are heavily represented in dystopic and abusive tech companies and business ventures
I should have been even more specific and said white too (edit: I literally DID say white lmaoo sorry but I’m standing by it)
Edit: rich gays seem to be rich first and gay second so don’t rush to their defense
The commenter didn’t mention the gender of the group they want to single out, and “gay” is used so often as a synonym for “lesbian, gay and bi” nowadays that I see no reason to not assume that’s what they mean.
Deciding cis queer people are the ones doing what’s in the OP also isn’t any better?? Why does the homophobia of straight people need to be blamed on their targets?
I’m sorry but it’s also just bad media interpretation. Why would a queer person burn a rainbow flag while telling someone the fire will go out before it gets to the part that represents *you*, not *us*?
maria [she/her]what is this?….
NOT_RICKIt’s a comic mocking the foolishness of trans exclusionary LGB community members that refuse to realize that once the trans boogeyman is excised, they’re next.

What do the scissors on pink’s shirt mean?
TQ cut off from LGBTQ
Is that an actual group, like LGB that are unsupportive of TQ?
Unfortunately, yes.
Sadly, yes. There’s a pretty notorious transphobic organization calling themselves the LGB Alliance, with the aim of trying to drive a wedge.
I guess I can see how it gets messy when you have to figure out visibility. Like could it be seen as concern over the TQ “Not All Men-ing” the movement?
I know that’s a stretch…
Also can I ask an ignorant question from the outside? I always thought the rainbow flag was future-proofed and didn’t understand adding other colors. The rainbow is already the full spectrum of visible light meaning you could change the messaging to include others and keep the same symbol. Thoughts?
The additions are to highlight the parts of our community that are typically underrepresented, more vulnerable, and facing higher levels of discrimination (i.e. trans people, intersex people, and queer people of color).
It also helps weed out the “LGB without the T” assholes. As a trans woman, seeing just the rainbow flag flying somewhere often makes me think “is this actually a safe place, or do they hate me more than the place next door with no flag?” Usually that isn’t the case, but the doubt exists, and it sucks.
Yeah makes sense. Even if you include “all” marginalized groups that’s a far cry from “everyone”.
Also agree the ship has sailed on using the rainbow-only flag to mean everything. Thanks for responding to my thought anyway.
Yes. Even some US government websites updated from LGBTQ to LGB. The travel information page is now down to just “Gay and Lesbian travelers.”
That’s messed up.
Sometimes bi erasure is actually overt
Scissoring (the lesbians are over represented) /s
No way they would wait that long to start pecking down the trans tree.
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.

Yes you are. Fuck off with this “just asking questions” slop. This is, word for word, a TERF talking point.
Suck my girldick, asshole
