I honestly wasn't going to write more than two posts about Pride Month. It was going to be one post at the beginning, wishing all my friends in the LGBTQ+ community a Happy Pride... then another at the end, summarizing the genre movies I watched for the month. That's it.
But holy crap are people up their asses this year.
So much faux persecution, hate, and bullshit.
And though this excellent piece by Dan McClellan is about baseball, you can apply it to many, many, other scenarios...

And then there's this nonsense...
Serious question... do these assholes even READ the Bible?
Because the meaning of the rainbow for Christians is right there in the Book of Genesis: "I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant..." — Genesis 9:13-15
Rainbows are widely interpreted to be a sign from God that his judgement over the earth has passed and he won't destroy the world with a flood again. Kinda the opposite of a "weapon."
And, oh yeah... THE PRIDE FLAG IS NOT A LITERAL FUCKING RAINBOW!!!
It was intentionally made as its own symbol, with each color representing LGBTQ+ values. Six colors instead of seven. And originally it had 9 or something. The LGBTQ+ community is not "stealing God's rainbow" which is categorically absurd. When Hawaii put a rainbow on their license plates, did they steal it from God? Give me a fucking break.
I swear these assholes spend more time thinking about gay stuff than any gay person I know.
Which is not surprising given the rate that most of them turn out to be closeted homosexuals, and this is just an attempt to divert attention away from them.
Misdirection always works!
Until it doesn't.

Great point about the whole MLB “controversy”. I think…ok, thought, the players should be free to write bible verses on the Pride Caps they’re being force to wear, but assuming this is not the case (at least according to the Tik-Tok, and I’m going to assume that is correct info), then no..not OK. Having to go out of their way to violate a rule isn’t free speech (not that any of this is a violation of the 1st Amendment anyway), it’s being a dick. They didn’t have to wear the hat?! Then, in my opinion, ANY fines/trouble they get in, as long as it is consistently enforced, is not only appropriate, but necessary. Whatever the MLB would do for these guys defacing their hats on a random Tuesday is definitely what should be happing now for actions taken during the Pride Night game.
They (the players) are literally making something out of nothing at this point.
So much destruction has been done in the name of religion that I cannot stand it. The best people I know aren’t religious and have better morals than these so-called followers of God. If he does exist, he has to feel mighty disappointed with his flock.
