Imagine being on a planet that’s getting hotter and hotter day by day just to make some billionaires have some extra 0s in their bank account, and you get goaded into attacking a marginalised minority by the same billionaires who are killing the planet.

Imagine your entire worldview being controlled by unelected billionaires influencing your government and media.

I was at a pride event last month, and there were two guys spewing religious nonsense over a loudspeaker close enough that you could hear it from the event.

A few of the event supporters were there holding signs and blocking out the scripture duo’s hate speech using their own loudspeaker.

At one point, the good guy started asking the religious nut job about why they aren’t protesting against priests raping kids.

He kept asking that question until the Jesus freak, clearly irritated, yelled, “because it doesn’t matter!”

That’s all you have to know about these people.

Man if we could target 10% of the hate priests get for that towards teachers doing the same thing we might actually be able to protect most children from abuse.

I have an idea that could help these protesters. Surprising they never thought of this before, but they could always MIND THEIR OWN FUCKING BUSINESS AND STOP TRYING TO TELL OTHER PEOPLE WHAT TO DO!

The protesters. Why would the people at the pride celebration need to mind their own business? They’re not hurting anyone.

I meant that both sides tend to not “mind their own business and stopp trying to tell other people what to do” Just yelling here doesnt help anybody. it’s the same as when the neigbors dogs bark the whole day and you finaly phased them out and somebody mourns “can those damn dogs shut the up!” and you just hear them again. those posts as the one we’re posting on are just giving them fuel. and the same goes for the Trend LGBTQs. I’m not saying everyone is trans or whatever for the attention but there are definitly some who are and those are just as anoying as the anti lgbtq guys. who the fuck cares?

Anti-LGBT protesters

Is that the “politically correct” term for fascists these days?

They’re fascist protesters*

They might be fascists, but at least they’re doing it through peaceful protest… Right? Right?
