Gay people, please keep being who you are. While I was never naturally inclined to fear or hate the LGBTQ+ crowd, getting to know many of them as coworkers and friends helped me to truly understand them. And unlike people who would post hate speech on social media to politicize their own wedding I have never met LGBTQ+ people that cared I was white, male, or straight.

I feel so, so sad for the fianceé.

She needs to run. Quickly. Faster!

captainlezbian ,

Why would I care if straight people got engaged in June? It’s a lovely time to get engaged.

Pride month can’t get canceled, it’s like Labor Day, if you let it be ceremonial it will, and if you don’t we won’t.

Don't boast about "defeating pride" in your engagement photo unless you had to wrestle lions to get her to say yes.

raynethackery ,

Wrapping your celebration up in hatred. Classy.

Asafum ,

Fucking seriously. What the actual fuck is wrong with these people?

I hate propagandists with every single fiber of my being, more than I hate absolutely anything in the entire universe, and yet I rarely think about them unless something specific comes up.

These assholes just love to hate all the time.

Pack it all up. The party's over. Addison just proposed to his girlfriend. How will we ever survive this? Might as well just cancel gayness. Sigh.

Where did I put that "maximum ooof" meme? Damn.

RBWells ,

I am so confused. Did he think he had to marry a man because it's pride month? I can't ever wrap my mind around people who think letting others love who they want to somehow reduces their own freedom to love who they want to.

Congratulations, I guess. May your children be many, and gay.

iAmTheTot ,

I wouldn't wish that on the children.

Downcount ,

Yeah, many siblings equals many trouble.

zalgotext ,

It's probably safe to say that those parents (at least the father) equals many trouble

Ultraviolet ,

I assume it's projection. He loses his shit when he's reminded of the existence of gay people, so he assumes everyone else must be the same as him, just with the teams swapped.

volvoxvsmarla ,

I'm sorry but when I read "pride month is defeated" in the context of a heterosexual engagement my mind immediately assumes the dude is a closeted homosexual who chose her as his beard instead of coming out. And this is how he "defeated pride". By choosing a heteronormative lifestyle over his actual preferences.

The most optimistic scenario my head can come up with to make the sentence make sense would be that she's bisexual and because of him she chose to commit to a heteronormative relationship.

In any way, for a lack of a better term, putting your engagement in context of defeating pride makes you look quite gay.

If that was the case she should be pissed that this was his reflection

xantoxis ,

She should be pissed in any scenario. You propose to your partner, you post a photo, and then you put ANYTHING other than I LOVE MY FIANCEE in your post? That sucks, dude.

chiliedogg ,

Those who hate homosexuals and see them as the "other side" often believe that homosexuals view heterosexuals with the same malice.

Gay people know they're not the norm, and don't feel threatened by straight folk unless. They feel threatened by bigots.

Most of the time, the more you say you aren't x, the more you actually are x.

Or as Ron White put it...

JimmyBigSausage ,

Anyone know if this is real?

An important question, usually conspicuous by their absence with confirmation bias-related posts. But in this case, the source is provided. You can check for yourself and let us know, if you have a Xitter account to see the replies.

Unless Elmo's added yet another layer of enshittification. It's hard to keep up.

JimmyBigSausage ,

I won’t X because of their leader Mollusk.

papafoss ,

I don't understand why anyone would want to tie an engagement to their politics. Politics was literally not even a thought when I got engaged. That man has got issues!

ZagamTheVile ,

I'd spend way more time worrying about if I actually wanted to be married to a dude named Addison.

RememberTheApollo_ ,

Politics should have been sorted out way before the ring.

ID411 ,

Yeah I just wonder who this is for. A flex to his church friends or what ?

His name has TV in it, so I assume he's just completely dedicated his life to making neo-nazi ragebait

@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

Sometimes I try to visualize smug, snarky comments like this if it were about something I believe in. Like, if there were a mixed race proposal and it said "Racism is so defeated," would that be any better?

No, it's cringy as hell. Makes the proposal seem like it's about some agenda rather than loving the person.

Makes me think of the scene in Letterkenny where all of the Christian church dudes are on Grindr.

This is the dumbest comeback I've seen
