Discussion: Trump Admin Won't Let US Embassies Fly Pride Flags On Official Flagpoles

Unfortunately, there is a relatively important group of biggoted gay folks, many of them who did quite well for themselves financially, and are into the whole “I’m better than you are thing” Peter Thiel comes to mind as being an e.g. of this type of total peice of shit.

They spent their days telling each other that Trump is from NYC, so he can’t really be a bigot.

Gay republicans are like Republican voting African-Americans - not a lot of them (12% in the only poll I can find on the subject: LGBT Poll: People Feel Less Safe Under Donald Trump | TIME admitted they voted for Trump) but enough at the margins that if they woke up and turned on Trump it would have an impact.

I wonder if someone could rainbowize this?

And that’s totally cancelled out because of the rainbow MAGA t-shirt. Totally.

People who have no pride.

Evangelicals have passports? Wouldn’t they be afeared of falling off the edge of the world?

The GOP “Big Tent” is the inverse of the TARDIS. It’s much, much smaller on the inside than it looks.

Milo Yellownipples and the Log Cabana Boy Republicans beg to disagree, sir!

The Trump hated Pride Month! The whole Gay Pride season!
Now, please don’t ask why. Only Pence knows the reason.
It could be Trump’s bone spurs ached too heavy that night
It could be his fat ass made his pants far too tight.
But I think that the most likely reason of all
May have been that Trump’s penis was two sizes too small. - “How The Trump Screwed Pride Month”

I think in Trumpland it’s referred to as the RETARDIS.

Yeah, but aren’t American Embassies considered “US” soil?

And aren’t we under distress?

I’d love to see gays make a hostile takeover of the shirts and make a run on the MAGA slogan.

Can you imagine 100 gays outside a Trumpp rally, all in gay pride shirts and…not much else but maybe a little leather…chanting Make America Great Again. They could point to everyone in MAGA gear, give them a nod of appreciation, and yell “thank you for your support.”

Yes to both, but you know what I mean. That would make it too easy for them to get all upset, whereas throwing a nutty and firing people and what not over support for gay rights would be fantastically stupid of them haha

Pence. He will have a closet full of them.

What a disgraceful bunch of blaggards.

For those who many be wondering, the building in the photo is not an embassy. It is City Hall in Boston.
