RT by @EUinWroclaw: In the 1980s, Wrocław’s Orange Alternative fought communism with whimsical dwarfs. Today, on the International Day Against Homophobia (#IDAHOT), the mechanics of resisting systemic oppression touch the same core:
🎨 Visual Resistance: Where the system enforces grayness and censorship, rebellion brings color 🧡🌈
🎭 Joy as a Weapon: Regimes and prejudices hate laughter. Absurdity and pride strip the oppressors of their power to terrify.
🧱 Reclaiming Space: Painting dwarfs on city buildings then - is the exact same fight for visibility as marching in the streets today.
Totalitarian mindsets feed on fear and silence. The best response? Be loud, be visible, and be impossible to ignore. 🙂

Lives of The Orange Men: A Retrospective

https://www.xenofact.com/2025/08/24/lives-of-the-orange-men-a-retrospective/

Here in #BC, what kind of fun and obsurdity can #artists and #creatives engage in to point out to the #BCNDP they are echoing the #FascistOrange to the south?

It seems appropriate the #NDP colour is #orange. What would an alternative to the NDP look like? May I submit the Now Destitute Poor? Establish the Divot Beagle Society? (golf course & breed advocacy)
