@danwentzel Only suggestion, more pink!

@danwentzel
Woohoo!

(But I seem to recall that those parts of America I've lived in have always BEEN gay, no matter what the cretins in power say about it.)

@danwentzel When was America gay, previously? During DADT? Pre-Stonewall?

We're queerer now than ever!

@LeDiva @danwentzel I read in the past the same question about whether America had truly been great in the past. With the Segregation, the Dust Bowl crisis, the Civil War, the Wild West, the discrimination against the new waves of migrants through centuries, or the founding of first states on slavery, the MAGA slogan is already based on a myth. Therefore why not "gay again"? ๐Ÿ˜‚
@danwentzel there's still more than half of June left! Crank up the production & flood the streets with these!
@danwentzel There is no contradiction between gays and fascism.
Why is the idea of โ€˜genderโ€™ provoking backlash the world over?

Increasingly, authoritarians are likening โ€˜genderismโ€™ to โ€˜communismโ€™ and โ€˜totalitarianismโ€™

The Guardian
@peterbutler There are lots of gays there fascist. With that I have no opposition of gays or lesbian. I try to see it as it is. @danwentzel

@jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel

Aren't the fascist gays are still in the closet?

@jcast
They had a very interesting tv-program about that here in sweden where i live. The border where something is fascist or not is very seldom discussed, but was here. We have the fascist party Sweden democrats in our parliament.
@peterbutler @danwentzel

@jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel

But isn't being gay taboo for fascists?

@jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel

YMMV though. Sweden is a bit different I guess.

@jcast I don't think so if your clear your view. @peterbutler @danwentzel

@jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel

Oh sorry, I meant depending on which country you live that might not be as acceptable. In european latin countries for example right wing politics does not mix well with homosexuality or queerness in general. But things change quickly.

@jcast In Germany you had a nazi who was open with his homosexuality, Erich Rรถhm. He was killed during "Die Nacht der langen Messer" in 1934 @peterbutler @danwentzel

@jcast No. The German fascist party leader Alice Weidel (great friend of Musk) lives openly with her wife while making the worst homophobe politics.
Also in European "latin countries" some queer people love fascists. It's called cognitive dissonance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_dissonance

@jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel

Cognitive dissonance - Wikipedia

@NatureMC @jcast @jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel I'm thinking Log Cabin Republicans, another anomaly of human intelligence which defies any rational understanding, as far as I am concerned... It's that age old longing, to 'belong' to the group that doesn't want you. It's downright strange. And creepy. Trump's mentor, Roy Cohn, is one of the more repulsive examples.

@cliffco58 I don't know US mentalities so much but I believe that.

@jcast @jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel

@NatureMC @jcast @jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel

And she is living in Suisse with her wife, which makes the whole thing even more funny!

@jcast @jajo @peterbutler @danwentzel

depends on the fraction, think about Ernst Rรถhm (he and his group belonged to the orignal german Nazis and where killed in one night and they were queer as folk*g) in Germany and later Michael Kรผhnen

@danwentzel wholeheartedly for this, and also some pedantry: can we really take it "back"? I think we're just straight up taking it. And like, I'm all for taking it from them, it just was theirs first.
@danwentzel that is a beautiful hat. Do you have a link to buy it?

@danwentzel
Maniacs Are Gutting America!
Or more specifically: MAGA Are Gutting America!

But yours has nicer colours. :)

@AskPippa @danwentzel love this one, too!
Hoping to find it somewhere for
#NoKingsProtest this weekend!
@RiaResists @danwentzel I don't think anyone has made a Gutting one yet. Maybe it'll catch on.
@AskPippa @danwentzel yes!
I might use for my sign this weekend. Didnโ€™t see anything online but itโ€™s pretty perfect ๐Ÿ™‚
@danwentzel Microsoft Apple Google Amazon?
@danwentzel Keep it up!
Ridicule is to fascismโ€™s core like a wooden stick is to a vampireโ€™s heart! ๐Ÿ’™
@danwentzel nah, hard pass. It's like putting a swastika on a rainbow hat. You ain't taking that phrase back, just pissing everyone off who isn't a monster
@danwentzel
LOVE,LOVE this. โค๏ธ 
@danwentzel tihi! love it ๐Ÿ˜€

@danwentzel

I want that hat, and I'm not even gay.

@danwentzel I want one of those! Where can I get one?
@danwentzel @KayJanes I ainโ€™t even gay and I want that.

@danwentzel Hard pass. Makes me think of the 2016 campaign, when someone sharpied "lgbtq's for trump" onto an upside-down Pride flag.

Rainbow or no, if I spot a MAGA hat, I'm walking the other way, before they ever get close enough for me to make out the smaller text.

@danwentzel gays, assemble.

We're weaponisising their own saying >:3

@danwentzel
To remind us all of the Gay Nineties?
@danwentzel Don't that acronym is like the swastika. It's a symbol of evil that can never be redeemed.
@danwentzel appreciate the sentiment but a red hat is a red hat
@zip @danwentzel A red hat may be a red hat, but that hat ainโ€™t red. Itโ€™s a rainbow. There is alt text explaining this.

@ClickyMcTicker i had hoped this would be obvious: I'm not saying it's a red hat, I'm saying it's a _Red Hat_.

Whether by mistake or by design, this is a hat that's going to make everyone, including your fellow gays, think you're a gay fascist until they get close enough to read the subtitle, and to think you're an asshole or an idiot after that

@danwentzel I fucking love this! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
