The irony of somebody using the “giga-Chad” meme to criticize LGBT+ people for “being proud of getting laid”, when having sex with women is the only thing alpha males ever talk about… Huh.
I recently watched El Dorado on Netflix and it speaks on homophobia and transphobia before and during Hitler’s rise to power. The medical institute for transgender people was burned by the Nazis, destroying over 20k books. 100k people were charged with homosexuality, 50k were incarcerated with it, and an estimated 5-15k died in concentration camps. There was a notable tennis player charged with it, but criminality wasn’t ever repealed during his career so he was barred from competing internationally, where it counted. That’s one of many reasons for pride.
Good LGBTQ+ joke: What do you call a non-binary person who can’t have milk? Non-biDairy. Bad LGBTQ+ joke: haha my pronouns are U/S/A and I’m an attack helicopter.
To be fair, Netflix sucks at portraying LGBT+ characters. One Netflix show I watched has a bi character, which is nice... except she's portrayed as a cheater.
Honestly, I think that's fine as long as it's not the only representation. Not all LGBT+ characters should be good people, they should just be LGBT+. It is nice to see good characters though.
I reccomend Arcane The writers thought of the idea that "what if this world never had a reason to differentiate between sexuality, would they even use words for it?"
If you look up on the rules to abide by for the American flag, burning is indeed protected by the first amendment as a form of protest against the government. (And there are rules that it’s illegal to use the American flag as clothing, swim wear, plates, napkins, and in political campaigns. So every day especially in summer and during election year, people are breaking that rule and should be punished. Lmao!) The Pride flag is to represent a minority group that gets a lot of hate and attacks. So burning the Pride flag is indeed a form of hate crime to a minority community. Other flags such as the nazi flag and the confederate flag, as far as I know, has no protections and can be burned in protest towards a hateful group of people that should no longer exist in our modern society. Hate groups are not protected.
So, the thing about using the flag as clothing: you are allowed to reproduce the flag's pattern on a piece of clothing. That is a picture of a flag which is not considered a flag. What you may *not* do, is take an actual flag and make it into a garment. I.e. if you get given a flag, say because your loved one was killed in combat, you cannot later make a shirt out of it. However, if the fabric was not ever a flag to begin with, but merely features a pattern similar to the flag, that is fine. Also, an actual flag has to be made of fabric and specifically wool or cotton. If it is made of paper or plastic it is also, not a flag. An actual flag also has to be saluted, but a picture of a flag does not need to be. The other weird thing you can't do to flags is walk on them. Flag burning however, is considered a respectful protest. Red white and blue bunting is also, not a flag.
@@golwenlothlindel Also burning a flag is the one of the only ways to properly dispose of a flag that is no longer fit to be flown (due to wear and tear of use and age).
the flag is also not allowed to be flown higher than any other (allied) nation's flag on neighboring poles during times of peace, nor should it be laid down and flown horizontally/flat (think like, 20 people carrying a flat flag out for the superbowl like it's a blanket and they all have a corner/side to cover the field with it. like, they really don't give a crap about the flag code or disrespecting it. they just want to be bigots
Thank you! I knew there was a reason why I was looking at that meme and thinking "But... I don't get it, what point they're trying to make here...?" Wasn't there an episode of 'Seinfeld' back in the day where they got into HUGE trouble for a scene where Kramer accidentally burned the Portuguese flag? It was played as a total accident, for which he got a load of flack in the scene from the Portuguese characters around him - but there were loads of complaints, simply for the fact that it was used as a cheap gag in the show at all.
Tbh I *do* think that homophobes/transphobes are, on a deep emotional level, scared. The visibility/acceptance of LGBT+ people makes them feel threatened because of their own insecurities and fears, and that's what drives them to aggression. So yes, "phobia" is a 100% correct term in this case.
If they were as confident and secure as they want us to think, they wouldn't be so homophobic (or lgbt+ phobic in general). So yes, I think there is fear involved. Fear of change if nothing else. Besides, "phobia" means aversion more than fear, so it still works either way.
I'm a straight (cis) man and I honestly feel the same about gay couples that I feel about other couples. I usually find them cute. People in love are beautiful and should be cherished!
Yes! (though I am aroace + agender [aka barely existing, haha]) Whenever I see a couple holding hands or being generally lovey-dovey with each other, it always puts a smile on my face. Doesn't matter what gender any of them are. I see love, I feel happy.
I mean when Al Bundy is a more inclusive person than they are they need help. Al has said on episodes of MWC that gays should be allowed to get married because "they deserve to be just as miserable as the rest of us". And is Al inclusive of trans people? Well, he once hot his HS football buddies together for one last game and found that one had changed genders. Al thought it was a joke till he looked up her skirt. And what happened after? Al kept her on hos team and she was even invited to join the guys in a post game drink at the bar. (Yes her character is played for laughs mostly but she isn't the punching bag of the episode, though she is deadnamed thru theepisode. Hell Marcy even supports her and Marcy is so hardcore feminist one might've expected her to be a TERF)
"Without straight people, you wouldn't be here!" Me, a pregnant bisexual: I beg your pardon? ETA: it's a test tube baby too so the idea that "WOMAN HAVE BABY. CAN'T HAVE BABY NO WOMAN" is especially aggravating to me. Plenty of cis women, myself included, struggle to get pregnant and I know at least two trans guys who got pregnant on the first try. But I'm sure those bearded dudes are more women than I am, right? 🙄
@@Pozorrogo that’s literally the point. doesn’t matter how a baby is made, gay & trans people can have children. not every person on earth was made by a straight person
The heterochromia is a play on words of how straight people are also referred to as hetero. But what’s ironic is how many of these homophobes are so right wing they would hate on the people with heterochromia.
I think the second one at least might just be a translation error cause the comment has been translated and facebook translations are really weird sometimes
My understanding of the cat one was that because the cat had two different colored eyes, it represents the eyes being 'straight' and therefore people who are gay must be upset about it, so therefore gay people would call the cat's eyes homophobic. So in a sense the people who agree with that meme are on the side of the cat. The creator was trying to make fun of LGBTQ people for being dramatic/oversensitive (which is obviously not true lol, it was a bad attempt at a joke.) Or maybe I'm reading too much into this lol
@@_ductape_471I think it's because the prefix homo means the same. Ain't specifically for attractions and phobia can mean either discrimination or it can mean an irrational fear so the eyes have different colours because they're scared of being identical making them homophobic it's stupid, but that's what I got out of it I don't know what the meme actually was tryna say
One day, I wore a shirt that said "Hello, my pronouns are They/Them" to school, then an administrator read it and said, " *I'm* not a bit fan of pronouns, cuz *they* don't make sense to *me.* " He... He used a solid 3 pronouns in that sentence. *They* make perfect sense to *him.*
I think the confusion lies in the fact that people will use gender neutral pronouns when they dont know what the person they are talking about, looks like so when you ask them to keep doing it in person and their mind is looking at your physical form, it creates a disconnect that confuses the hell outta them. Its not that they arent a fan of pronouns, its that they dont understand why some people want the pronouns that indicate you've never met and know nothing about them kinda thing. It's a weird one for sure.
@@starscreamthecruel8026 sure, I can see that argument. But on the other hand, it's what the person SAID they wanted, so you could just... do it anyway
@@ekrtznekrtz5229 Firstly, missing the point. The point was that this “grammatically incorrect” pronoun is very much grammatically correct. If you’d like more evidence, how about the fact that singular they is older than singular you? Secondly, we already do talk like Shakespeare, considering how many of our words and phrases he just invented

12:33 I think it's called Schrödinger's D-Bag, where someone will say some phobic s**t and then go "It's just a joke, bro" when called out for it, but will keep going if not called out
yessssssss its like the folks on youtube and tik tok who destroy property (I honestly dont care if you then hand them a new iphone or not that does not excuse the fact that you just destroyed their android phone.) and then scream "it was just a prank bro!" as they are arrested. A prank is a practical joke. It has to be funny to the victim as well for it to be a prank. A prank is like a whoopee cushion..... a prank is NOT coming close to smacking people in the face with a basket ball. a lot of these "prank" channels are actually commiting literal crimes and trying to get away with it by calling it a prank. Bigots " I think (horrid and disturbing acts) should happen to gay people! wait why are you leaving? it was just a joke bro!" like..... theres never a punch line even in those "jokes" . They just want to be able to say horrible things and not be called an a hole.
Its very annoying when I read comments saying it's everywhere or I dont want it in my face...it really shows what kind of people they are if it annoys them that much. Honestly its not just prode but anything that shows people to be proud of themselves and they'll take it as an attack of some sort of annoyance its very disheartening
When there's a whole month dedicated to it, flags designed for it, modern movies focused more on pride than on actual storytelling, and some people centering their entire identity around their sexual orientation, it certainly feels like it's everywhere.
I have never been shown a progress flag by any teacher in my time in the English education system, the most I have seen is pride pins on student uniforms
I am not sure why Woke has become a political slur either. It is an an African/American word from the early 40s that is referred to respecting minority groups culture, communities and justice.
In the USA at least right wing political people have occasionally been very successful at co-opting terminology and taking ownership over it. Take for instance "fake news". That wasn't originally a Trump thing as everyone seems to think it is now. In 2016 when Trump was running against Hillary Clinton, it was first a term used by the Hillary camp in referring to a wave of what can only be described as fake news stories. There were these websites mimicking legitimate news websites but hosting completely false stories. They called them fake news, but Trump adopted the term and now the political right effectively owns it. It's a powerful political move because owning a term in that way can deny the opposition from using it. There are a lot of fake stories out there spread by right-wing sources but progressive people can't call them fake news anymore because people assume people who use that term are conservatives. Something like that is going on with "woke". I'm told the original definition was that it means one is aware of racial injustice. Racists can't have that. So they took the term and they mutated it beyond all recognition and turned it into a content free phrase the basically means nothing which they can map all kinds of meaning onto.
It became a slur because it's scary for the non- oppressed groups potentially being held accountable for their actions towards poc and minorities. So they try to associate the word with what they perceive as negative connotations in order to discredit the movement itself.
I thought that with the slur slip joke since I know so many gay people use them, but it's definitely a "used the wrong joke with the wrong friend group" vibe
The PRIDEMONTH > DEMON graphic was actually created by a queer artist (Art By Veya), went viral "thanks" to 'phobes and was then reclaimed by The Queers (R).
I am so annoyed when oppressor classes try to equate jokes at their expense, with jokes at the expense of the oppressed. Come on people, this is not a hard concept to grasp; punching UP in comedy is GOOD, punching DOWN in comedy is BAD. 🤦♀
Similarly with dark humour. A lot of people mistake dark humour with being an ashole and/or plain sadistic. Dark humour is finding irony and absurdity etc in dark situations and topics to laugh at. Not laughing for the situation.
Or, a radical concept that might not make sense, maybe we don't need to be punching people at all under the guise of comedy. The only people I tease are the people who are my friends, know that I'm joking, and know that I will listen if they ever have a problem with me or something I say. When you don't have that relationship with someone, because they're a group of people or a stranger, you can easily just not make jokes at their expense.
@@illithiddynobolt5613 criticized existing power structures via humor is not a bad thing. It's Good and necessary. And pacifism is a cowards ideology.
Even with that thumbnail i have things to say, there's a difference between destroying a flag representing imperialism and genocide and destroying a flag of a minority
exactly, the american flag represents a country and what the country does, meanwhile the pride flag represents, as you said, a minority of people who have been hate crimed and discriminated throughout history
Or- a flag representing an ideological collection of segmented areas (states) and an abstract identity for a nation that doesn't represent any individual person Vs. A flag that represents PEOPLE. And the identities of those minority people. Created by those people to represent who they are and the oppression they they've conquered. So it's hate speech when you're burning a flag that represents a minority and actual individuals but not when you're burning an abstract concept of a collective.
I’m in high school and the first time I ever saw a teacher acknowledge anyone besides the Jewish (lgbtq, the disabled, Romani, etc) being harmed in the holocaust was in my dual enrollment history class this year. It took until I was 16 and taking a college class to see this (although I had educated myself already so I knew it wasn’t just the Jewish). Since when was school all about the lgbtq community?
It took me until 8th grade history class. Which is kinda when you start getting into the WW2 things but yeah before that you only really hear of Jewish people getting killed
@@ttintagelmy dad taught me about those, my teacher didn't like when I asked when we were going to talk about that part in the unit on ww2. I was honestly just trying to learn, but I got in trouble for "being argumentative". I wasn't trying to argue anything or make a statement, or cause any kind of problem, just curious if we were gonna talk about it. My teachers didn't k ow at the time that I an autistic and didn't realize it was taboo to talk about.
If someone is so stupid that they rely on ai art to make their propaganda cartoons now instead of paying actual artists, it’s safe to say these “people” will never listen to reason.
I love the logic about the two pieces fitting together meaning they are "meant for each other"..... Like golf balls and a human mouth. Just because they can go in there, does not mean they are the ONLY thing that CAN go in there by divine decree.

@@Star1412s well, I was going to talk about how some people claim that how a banana fits easily in the human hand is a sign that they believe that it is intelligent design and was created by a loving God. Well, male genitalia fits in someone's rectum just as well but other people are not claiming it is a sign of divine intervention.
@@8bitjoystickthe funny part is bananas are not at all natural. They are created by humans. To my knowledge natural bananas are extinct, I don't think they were preserved like other plants. The original was rounded, kind of like an egg or melon shape, rough skin compared to what has now, and quite little of it was the soft edible flesh, not to mention it wasn't nearly as sweet. This is why banana medicine tastes so wrong. That flavour is closer to what bananas originally tasted like than what they taste like now.
@@velvetbutterfly there used to be FAR more varieties of bananas. but because of human intervention and selectively breeding them to correct shape and reduce the amount of seeds and whatnot, the bananas of old became very susceptible to blight, and as a result, died off en masse so these days, it's pretty much just the one or two species of banana that are grown and sold worldwide. i think Cavendish bananas account for about half of them, and in the US, Cavendish bananas make up 95% of the bananas sold and eaten.

Weird story about homophobes, but in my chemistry class a kid asked other if they'd rather be gay or a pedophile. The only people who didn't either struggle or just choose the wrong answer was a group of girls in the back. I wasn't asked by them, I just overheard, but if they did asked I would've answered and just told them straight up that they aren't good people.
@science_bear Congratulations, you’ve established that *some* straight people, and in fact more specifically just some homophobes are in fact pædophiles. My question is, how does that equate to all straight people being pædophiles in your mind?
the creator of the rainbow seatbelts meme CLEARLY didn't see the bit in jurassic park where alan only had 2 female seatbelts and he just tied them together in a knot to make it work. so in reality it doesn't matter what's on the ends of your seatbelt, they ALL fit together in some way or another because LIFE FINDS A WAY.
14:30 the "mental illness" take is not the own they think it is. Setting aside the obvious incorrectness, there's the very substantial fact that being prejudiced against people with mental illness is NOT BETTER.
Also, it doesn’t make sense logically either, when treating someone who is acutely psychotic, you don’t attack them or their psychosis. You let them know you are trying to help them and that they are safe. You may gently challenge some parts of the psychosis, e.g. “I am not spying on you for the government, I’m here to ask you what you want for dinner “ but you don’t say “yo your crazy and stupid because you’re different than me”. Like WTF?
0:54 There was a movement to change the ‘phobia’/‘phobic’ to ‘misia’/‘misic’ to change from ‘fear’ to ‘hate’. Of course I didn’t see widespread acceptance of the term.

@@queenboss7 I asked a Christian online that if God allegedly made everyone the way they are, why would he create a sub sect of people in an orientation that is specifically demonized by the bible? The guy said, because God needs enemies for his chosen people to fight and some just drew the short straw. In other words, in his eyes and those that believe this, we simply exist to be ridculed, bullied, converted, fought against and obliterated by the chosen ones. The warriors of God must ALWAYS have an external enemy to fight lest they turn on each other. Its another reason not to follow such a narrow minded, territorial. hateful death cult.
What I have never understood as a cis-straight-white-male is how some people have the mental space to give a s*it about what others are doing, so long as it isn’t HARMING someone. *** I am 100 percent an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community, but say I wasn’t. I have way more than enough of my own problems to care about what someone else is doing behind closed doors.

"shopping/clubbing/kpop/makeup/... ain't a hobby, those are obsessions/deception (in the case of make-up)/hysteria!", men say, while they literally have a man cave where they act like they're 5, with their "no girls allowed!" signs on the door, just with fancier toys than back when they actually were 5. or when they see women go crazy over kpop or taylor swift, that's not valid, that's "hysteria". i remember how it was back in the day when justin bieber/1D was a thing, same thing. but when men literally fight each other in the streets before/after a football game, or even in the stadium, that's all fine, because "they're just passionate about something". sorry for the long comment, but i've always hated that double standard and your comment reminded me of it

We as the queer community have fought for so long and so hard to get to a point where lots of us are comfortable being out and lots of us are comfortable coming out, which wouldn't have happened years ago. I just think straight people need to stop and thank their lucky stars that they've never had to, nor will they ever have to, go through what we've gone through to get to this point and we still have a long way to go. Straight people need to show respect for the struggles we've faced as a community instead of being a bunch of homophobic assholes. Of course, not all straight people are, I'm referring to those that are. It's hard enough that members of our own community turn on each other. Such a shame.

That "Sorry I made you gay" one with Jesus hugging the gay person before sending him to hell doesn't come across to me as homophobic or accidental ally. It must be satirical.
I think the question is what the intent of the comic is. Is it meant to be in support of homophobia or is it meant to criticize it? I think it's clearly meant to criticize it. The Christian God is supposed to be an all-loving entity who is all good all the time. But the comic depicts him choosing to make people gay knowing that that will cause them to suffer eternal torment. A god of pure goodness would not do such a thing, which is why I think it's meant to ridicule the idea that God cares about people's sexuality. You could say that it depicts homophobia, but it depicts it to mock it. It depicts a homophobic Jesus or God because such an depiction makes a mockery out of what Christians generally believe their deity to be. If the comic was meant to be anti-gay, it would never have depicted God as making people gay at birth. They generally rely upon the argument that people choose to be gay therefore it's okay to treat them hatefully. They can't say that their God makes people gay because then they would be hating people for their god-given natures.

Phobia is butchered these days. Its overuse has always irked me. To keep things simple I prefer the technical definition. "A phobia is a persistent, excessive, unrealistic fear of an object, person, animal, activity, or situation. It is a type of anxiety disorder. A person with a phobia either tries to avoid the thing that triggers the fear, or endures it with great anxiety and distress." - Definition from Harvard Health.
@@kdog3908 to add to that, both homophobia and xenophobia are medically recognized phobias. And the list of phobias can be expanded as new types emerge
@@jayfalcon-rw3qc Agreed. The difference being a phobia is a significant, diagnosable and treatable condition. Conversely, someone who doesn't like Muslims might be a bigot but it doesn't necessarily make them an Islamophobe. Not liking something, for whatever reason, does not a phobia make.
@@kdog3908 well, here's a kind of hot take. Bigotry and mental illness are not mutually exclusive. So, there's bound to be overlap. I have a bad habit of talking to bigots, and for a lot of them, you can back them into a corner logically, and then the irrationality comes out, and it makes less and less sense. I'm not a mental health professional, but I suspect there's something like that going on, especially with homophobia and xenophobia. The things they tell me to justify their stance sound like it's deeply rooted in their personal psychology and emotions. But I'm not an expert by any means. The most common type I've met: cishet white men who have trouble maintaining relationships and seem to think that if they can't hold onto a woman, the world will think they're gay. The question is, where does the opinion end and the psychological problem begin? I think it's a grey area that we only notice when it becomes extreme and uncontrollable, as in when it gets violent
13:47 the only version of this joke I’ve ever liked is “I identify as none of your business, do not perceive me, my pronouns are is/not”. And that’s just because it was a trans person saying it as a rebuttal.
I'm still a little puzzled about that one because typically they are committed to arguing that being gay is a choice, and that comic positions it as being effectively predestined. If the person who posted it is a Christian they were implying that their God is a malicious God. These are all things that they're typically committed to opposing. Not understanding satire is one thing, but posting a meme that implies that your God is a vicious monster unworthy of praise is quite something else.
I learned about both taxes and LGBTQ+ stuff. My government teacher taught about when the US legalized gay marriages, but other than that the LGBTQ+ stuff was from GSA, which I'm incredibly glad they offered
The thing is, I make a lot of offensive and downright awful jokes with my friends, the difference is, it stops at a joke, and isn't a reflection of my actual opinion, like it is for many bigots. The difference is that it isn't JUST a joke for them, cuz it doesn't stop at the joke

Well at least the first time, I seem to remember that becoming a small meme on a gay subreddit a while ago after the first pic surfaced.
7:24 Honestly, that might be an intentional ally taking the p- out of the idea that being gay - something that can't be helped - is somehow a sin. Then again, Poe's law is a thing.
the seatbelt "metaphor" is very interesting to me because, like... it's assuming one side is a peen and one is a vaj. but the reason seatbelts work is that they lock. and people don't "lock" during intercourse. so really, the seatbelt metaphor isn't about peen-in-vaj sex: it's about knotting.
The thing about Netflix shows is that I often feel like they throw in the diversity just to get brownie points, but put very little effort in good quality writing, etc. And then interesting shows (with diversity in them) get canceled after one season as soon as the hype dies down, leaving everyone hanging and jumping to the next mediocre project.
17:58 this reminds me of the backlash memes to people pointing out various hints that Gwen Stacy may be trans, one of which being her color scheme being the same as the flag. They involved the same punchline with the same horrible symbol, but it was also dragging Miles Morales into it too like if one character is trans because of a flag color scheme, then this other character must be a notZ. Apparently.
@@Lizard_Ri the thing is, it was wasn’t the only or biggest clue. That was the “protect trans kids” trans flag above her door. The color schemes matching wasn’t something that would make or break the theory, but some people were mad and were willing to call someone who was helped by anarchist (who categorically don’t like NotZs) a NotZ just to prove it was silly when it was just a neat detail that fit well with a pre-established theory, not the basis of it.
10:43 - As somebody who’s just now finishing up my years of education, I can confirm I never once learned about jobs, taxes or housing. The closest we got was teachers screaming “you need to know this for a career” and not elaborating. But we were also never taught ANYTHING even remotely not-straight. I learned about the community from seeing gay in The Owl House and wanting to know more. In fact, I don’t think I learned ANY important life skills in the school I went to. I’m coming out of school with a few qualifications and the social/living skills of a soggy loaf of bread. So in other words, schools aren’t being useful either way, whether it is for or against their bigotry :D
When they think Pride is being proud of who you have sex with, it just goes to show they have no concept of oppression, because the pride comes from living as who I am despite all the pressure against it
Legit something I thought about saying as an enby, but didn't want people to mistake me for an asshole. Same with "I identify as a fucking problem". But I do joke about being numerous bees in a trench coat.
I have seen someone who is trans or trans adjacent use the attack helicopter line, and I had trouble understanding why. They seemed to feel that answering the question of gender was awkward, even though they were definitely in a safe space. They later explained that what they liked was the idea of people not knowing what their gender was. So I don't even know how to categorize them, but I don't even think it's the only time I've seen a possibly trans person use the attack helicopter line. I'm cis and I don't think I spend enough time in that world to understand what was going on. Perhaps it's an attempt to take ownership over the meme, I don't know. I don't suppose it's my place to offer judgment.
I want to say it so badly now, maybe the next time a transphobic asshole will show up I'll identify as a problem, with the pronouns of fuck/off -i hope I phrased everything correctly, not my first language 😅 just a random none binary having some fun c:
@@NomadSoul76 if I had to guess, it's also probably because it was funny. Personally hearing the attack helicopter line from trans people can be pretty funny. Any time it's not used to be a bigot it's fine :)

I recently watched El Dorado on Netflix and it speaks on homophobia and transphobia before and during Hitler’s rise to power. The medical institute for transgender people was burned by the Nazis, destroying over 20k books. 100k people were charged with homosexuality, 50k were incarcerated with it, and an estimated 5-15k died in concentration camps.
There was a notable tennis player charged with it, but criminality wasn’t ever repealed during his career so he was barred from competing internationally, where it counted.
That’s one of many reasons for pride.

To be fair, Netflix sucks at portraying LGBT+ characters. One Netflix show I watched has a bi character, which is nice... except she's portrayed as a cheater.
Yeah, that moment you remember Luz Noceda was on Disney.
Honestly, I think that's fine as long as it's not the only representation. Not all LGBT+ characters should be good people, they should just be LGBT+. It is nice to see good characters though.
@@TheAlmacias cheating specifically is a bi stereotype. I'd rather not have a bi character portrayed as a cheater.

The writers thought of the idea that "what if this world never had a reason to differentiate between sexuality, would they even use words for it?"
If you look up on the rules to abide by for the American flag, burning is indeed protected by the first amendment as a form of protest against the government. (And there are rules that it’s illegal to use the American flag as clothing, swim wear, plates, napkins, and in political campaigns. So every day especially in summer and during election year, people are breaking that rule and should be punished. Lmao!)
The Pride flag is to represent a minority group that gets a lot of hate and attacks. So burning the Pride flag is indeed a form of hate crime to a minority community.
Other flags such as the nazi flag and the confederate flag, as far as I know, has no protections and can be burned in protest towards a hateful group of people that should no longer exist in our modern society. Hate groups are not protected.
So, the thing about using the flag as clothing: you are allowed to reproduce the flag's pattern on a piece of clothing. That is a picture of a flag which is not considered a flag. What you may *not* do, is take an actual flag and make it into a garment. I.e. if you get given a flag, say because your loved one was killed in combat, you cannot later make a shirt out of it. However, if the fabric was not ever a flag to begin with, but merely features a pattern similar to the flag, that is fine. Also, an actual flag has to be made of fabric and specifically wool or cotton. If it is made of paper or plastic it is also, not a flag. An actual flag also has to be saluted, but a picture of a flag does not need to be. The other weird thing you can't do to flags is walk on them. Flag burning however, is considered a respectful protest. Red white and blue bunting is also, not a flag.
But national flag when burned, it should be worse than burning lgbtq flag! People should honoring the national flag than lgbtq flag!
@@golwenlothlindel Also burning a flag is the one of the only ways to properly dispose of a flag that is no longer fit to be flown (due to wear and tear of use and age).
the flag is also not allowed to be flown higher than any other (allied) nation's flag on neighboring poles during times of peace, nor should it be laid down and flown horizontally/flat (think like, 20 people carrying a flat flag out for the superbowl like it's a blanket and they all have a corner/side to cover the field with it.
like, they really don't give a crap about the flag code or disrespecting it. they just want to be bigots
Thank you! I knew there was a reason why I was looking at that meme and thinking "But... I don't get it, what point they're trying to make here...?"
Wasn't there an episode of 'Seinfeld' back in the day where they got into HUGE trouble for a scene where Kramer accidentally burned the Portuguese flag? It was played as a total accident, for which he got a load of flack in the scene from the Portuguese characters around him - but there were loads of complaints, simply for the fact that it was used as a cheap gag in the show at all.
Tbh I *do* think that homophobes/transphobes are, on a deep emotional level, scared. The visibility/acceptance of LGBT+ people makes them feel threatened because of their own insecurities and fears, and that's what drives them to aggression. So yes, "phobia" is a 100% correct term in this case.
If it's not profit-driven, that's ALL bigotry is.
If they were as confident and secure as they want us to think, they wouldn't be so homophobic (or lgbt+ phobic in general). So yes, I think there is fear involved. Fear of change if nothing else. Besides, "phobia" means aversion more than fear, so it still works either way.
Yes, irrational aversions are often based in some kind of fear.
Everything in this subreddit confirms they have a literal fear of gayness. Just confront them with the fact, and they'll admit it...

I'm a straight (cis) man and I honestly feel the same about gay couples that I feel about other couples. I usually find them cute. People in love are beautiful and should be cherished!

I mean when Al Bundy is a more inclusive person than they are they need help.
Al has said on episodes of MWC that gays should be allowed to get married because "they deserve to be just as miserable as the rest of us". And is Al inclusive of trans people? Well, he once hot his HS football buddies together for one last game and found that one had changed genders. Al thought it was a joke till he looked up her skirt. And what happened after? Al kept her on hos team and she was even invited to join the guys in a post game drink at the bar.
(Yes her character is played for laughs mostly but she isn't the punching bag of the episode, though she is deadnamed thru theepisode. Hell Marcy even supports her and Marcy is so hardcore feminist one might've expected her to be a TERF)

The heterochromia is a play on words of how straight people are also referred to as hetero. But what’s ironic is how many of these homophobes are so right wing they would hate on the people with heterochromia.
I think the second one at least might just be a translation error cause the comment has been translated and facebook translations are really weird sometimes
My understanding of the cat one was that because the cat had two different colored eyes, it represents the eyes being 'straight' and therefore people who are gay must be upset about it, so therefore gay people would call the cat's eyes homophobic. So in a sense the people who agree with that meme are on the side of the cat. The creator was trying to make fun of LGBTQ people for being dramatic/oversensitive (which is obviously not true lol, it was a bad attempt at a joke.)
Or maybe I'm reading too much into this lol
and they also don't know how to spell lol
@@_ductape_471I think it's because the prefix homo means the same. Ain't specifically for attractions
and phobia can mean either discrimination or it can mean an irrational fear
so the eyes have different colours because they're scared of being identical
making them homophobic
it's stupid, but that's what I got out of it
I don't know what the meme actually was tryna say
It's literally a joke from tumblr
One day, I wore a shirt that said "Hello, my pronouns are They/Them" to school, then an administrator read it and said, " *I'm* not a bit fan of pronouns, cuz *they* don't make sense to *me.* " He... He used a solid 3 pronouns in that sentence. *They* make perfect sense to *him.*
yeah, they sound REAL stupid when they say they don't use pronouns AT ALL. like fam, did you even PASS the 2nd grade?
I think the confusion lies in the fact that people will use gender neutral pronouns when they dont know what the person they are talking about, looks like so when you ask them to keep doing it in person and their mind is looking at your physical form, it creates a disconnect that confuses the hell outta them. Its not that they arent a fan of pronouns, its that they dont understand why some people want the pronouns that indicate you've never met and know nothing about them kinda thing. It's a weird one for sure.

12:33 I think it's called Schrödinger's D-Bag, where someone will say some phobic s**t and then go "It's just a joke, bro" when called out for it, but will keep going if not called out
They want plausible deniability so if you call them on their shit they can try to turn things around by making you look 'sensitive' or 'unreasonable'
yessssssss its like the folks on youtube and tik tok who destroy property (I honestly dont care if you then hand them a new iphone or not that does not excuse the fact that you just destroyed their android phone.) and then scream "it was just a prank bro!" as they are arrested. A prank is a practical joke. It has to be funny to the victim as well for it to be a prank. A prank is like a whoopee cushion..... a prank is NOT coming close to smacking people in the face with a basket ball. a lot of these "prank" channels are actually commiting literal crimes and trying to get away with it by calling it a prank.
Bigots " I think (horrid and disturbing acts) should happen to gay people! wait why are you leaving? it was just a joke bro!" like..... theres never a punch line even in those "jokes" . They just want to be able to say horrible things and not be called an a hole.
"They just think it's everywhere because they're not used to seeing it anywhere." Well said, Jamie.
Its very annoying when I read comments saying it's everywhere or I dont want it in my face...it really shows what kind of people they are if it annoys them that much. Honestly its not just prode but anything that shows people to be proud of themselves and they'll take it as an attack of some sort of annoyance its very disheartening
When there's a whole month dedicated to it, flags designed for it, modern movies focused more on pride than on actual storytelling, and some people centering their entire identity around their sexual orientation, it certainly feels like it's everywhere.

I am not sure why Woke has become a political slur either. It is an an African/American word from the early 40s that is referred to respecting minority groups culture, communities and justice.
bigots are bigoting
Unfortunately, that is exactly why it's become a bad idea.
In the USA at least right wing political people have occasionally been very successful at co-opting terminology and taking ownership over it. Take for instance "fake news". That wasn't originally a Trump thing as everyone seems to think it is now. In 2016 when Trump was running against Hillary Clinton, it was first a term used by the Hillary camp in referring to a wave of what can only be described as fake news stories. There were these websites mimicking legitimate news websites but hosting completely false stories. They called them fake news, but Trump adopted the term and now the political right effectively owns it. It's a powerful political move because owning a term in that way can deny the opposition from using it. There are a lot of fake stories out there spread by right-wing sources but progressive people can't call them fake news anymore because people assume people who use that term are conservatives.
Something like that is going on with "woke". I'm told the original definition was that it means one is aware of racial injustice.
Racists can't have that. So they took the term and they mutated it beyond all recognition and turned it into a content free phrase the basically means nothing which they can map all kinds of meaning onto.
It became a slur because it's scary for the non- oppressed groups potentially being held accountable for their actions towards poc and minorities. So they try to associate the word with what they perceive as negative connotations in order to discredit the movement itself.
Because they think respecting minority groups is bad. And to many people slur=bad words.
Ok, I'm just gonna say it... I've seen the "I identify as danger" thing used by lgbt people and it's hilarious when used by someone that's not bigoted

I am so annoyed when oppressor classes try to equate jokes at their expense, with jokes at the expense of the oppressed. Come on people, this is not a hard concept to grasp; punching UP in comedy is GOOD, punching DOWN in comedy is BAD. 🤦♀
Similarly with dark humour. A lot of people mistake dark humour with being an ashole and/or plain sadistic.
Dark humour is finding irony and absurdity etc in dark situations and topics to laugh at. Not laughing for the situation.
It’s because they want to be oppressed so bad for the attention, and they’re mad when someone else has the spotlight.
username checks out
Or, a radical concept that might not make sense, maybe we don't need to be punching people at all under the guise of comedy. The only people I tease are the people who are my friends, know that I'm joking, and know that I will listen if they ever have a problem with me or something I say. When you don't have that relationship with someone, because they're a group of people or a stranger, you can easily just not make jokes at their expense.

Even with that thumbnail i have things to say, there's a difference between destroying a flag representing imperialism and genocide and destroying a flag of a minority
exactly, the american flag represents a country and what the country does, meanwhile the pride flag represents, as you said, a minority of people who have been hate crimed and discriminated throughout history
Or- a flag representing an ideological collection of segmented areas (states) and an abstract identity for a nation that doesn't represent any individual person
Vs.
A flag that represents PEOPLE. And the identities of those minority people. Created by those people to represent who they are and the oppression they they've conquered.
So it's hate speech when you're burning a flag that represents a minority and actual individuals but not when you're burning an abstract concept of a collective.
To add to that, who has gotten into more legal trouble for burning which flag in the US?
@@shiny_cheyenne There's an argument to be made that the American flag represents the American people, and nationality is a part of one's identity.

@@8bitjoystickthe funny part is bananas are not at all natural. They are created by humans.
To my knowledge natural bananas are extinct, I don't think they were preserved like other plants.

This is why banana medicine tastes so wrong. That flavour is closer to what bananas originally tasted like than what they taste like now.

@@velvetbutterfly there used to be FAR more varieties of bananas. but because of human intervention and selectively breeding them to correct shape and reduce the amount of seeds and whatnot, the bananas of old became very susceptible to blight, and as a result, died off en masse
so these days, it's pretty much just the one or two species of banana that are grown and sold worldwide. i think Cavendish bananas account for about half of them, and in the US, Cavendish bananas make up 95% of the bananas sold and eaten.

14:30 the "mental illness" take is not the own they think it is. Setting aside the obvious incorrectness, there's the very substantial fact that being prejudiced against people with mental illness is NOT BETTER.
Also, it doesn’t make sense logically either, when treating someone who is acutely psychotic, you don’t attack them or their psychosis. You let them know you are trying to help them and that they are safe. You may gently challenge some parts of the psychosis, e.g. “I am not spying on you for the government, I’m here to ask you what you want for dinner “ but you don’t say “yo your crazy and stupid because you’re different than me”. Like WTF?
The "phobia" in homophobia is the same as in xenophobia. It's not being intimidated by the other - it's a mix of disgust, contempt and fear
isn't xenophopia fear of the unkknown kinda?
@@Jupue It's a fear of the outsider. There may be an element of fear of unknown, but often the ignorance about the other is willful
0:54 There was a movement to change the ‘phobia’/‘phobic’ to ‘misia’/‘misic’ to change from ‘fear’ to ‘hate’. Of course I didn’t see widespread acceptance of the term.
never understood the "-misia" thing lol, it's really pointless
If someone brings up "phobia means scared" you can retort with "hydrophobia". Phobia can also mean "repels", like how hydrophobic items repel water from themselves.
@@Justapikachu577 There are multiple terms with -phobic you can use as example. Water is lipophobic (repels fat) and your eyes can be photophobic (sensitive to light).
Another proof that bigoted people peaked in high school and only know very veeery basic biology, chemistry and terminology.
Phobia doesn't only mean fear
It means aversion

Fear is an aversion
Hate is an aversion
Repulsion is an aversion
Arachnophobia
Homophobia
Hydrophobia

Saying that LGBT people aren't treated equally because you can't make jokes about them is like saying white people are oppressed because you can't make racist jokes.

They priotized them but most them are white! It's dangerous and alarming!

@@queenboss7 I asked a Christian online that if God allegedly made everyone the way they are, why would he create a sub sect of people in an orientation that is specifically demonized by the bible? The guy said, because God needs enemies for his chosen people to fight and some just drew the short straw. In other words, in his eyes and those that believe this, we simply exist to be ridculed, bullied, converted, fought against and obliterated by the chosen ones. The warriors of God must ALWAYS have an external enemy to fight lest they turn on each other. Its another reason not to follow such a narrow minded, territorial. hateful death cult.

What I have never understood as a cis-straight-white-male is how some people have the mental space to give a s*it about what others are doing, so long as it isn’t HARMING someone.

I am 100 percent an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community, but say I wasn’t. I have way more than enough of my own problems to care about what someone else is doing behind closed doors.
These people have too much free time on their hands and nothing to fill it with. This is what happens when you demonise people having hobbies past the age of 10.
Yep, trans aroace white enby and I don't get it either. As long as no one is being harmed and it doesn't involve me, it's none of my business.
@@starscreamthecruel8026 oh yea, and then it's also no surprise that women are involved in transphobia a lot. not saying that it's justified for them to be transphobic, but it's logical they often don't really have a hobby when demonising hobbies most often happens to girls/women past the age of 10!
"shopping/clubbing/kpop/makeup/... ain't a hobby, those are obsessions/deception (in the case of make-up)/hysteria!", men say, while they literally have a man cave where they act like they're 5, with their "no girls allowed!" signs on the door, just with fancier toys than back when they actually were 5. or when they see women go crazy over kpop or taylor swift, that's not valid, that's "hysteria".
i remember how it was back in the day when justin bieber/1D was a thing, same thing. but when men literally fight each other in the streets before/after a football game, or even in the stadium, that's all fine, because "they're just passionate about something". sorry for the long comment, but i've always hated that double standard and your comment reminded me of it

i once made a attack-hellicopter like joke to my(then NB, now trans girl) friend that if i saw someone making fun of her pronouns, I would "identify as a FLUCKING PROBLEM!" and i believe this is the only type of attack helicopter joke that's acceptable.
I heard it as a kid and thought it was just someone being silly and laughed at it
That's hilarious lol, I'm so stealing it
Did she laugh?
It’s also acceptable to respond to someone saying “so you identify as an attack helicopter” with “yes I do”, as long as you make sure to specify which one. It can just be any attack helicopter, just make sure to yes and their sad attempt at a joke

We as the queer community have fought for so long and so hard to get to a point where lots of us are comfortable being out and lots of us are comfortable coming out, which wouldn't have happened years ago. I just think straight people need to stop and thank their lucky stars that they've never had to, nor will they ever have to, go through what we've gone through to get to this point and we still have a long way to go. Straight people need to show respect for the struggles we've faced as a community instead of being a bunch of homophobic assholes. Of course, not all straight people are, I'm referring to those that are. It's hard enough that members of our own community turn on each other. Such a shame.

I’ve never understood the “we should be being taught taxes not LGBTQ+ stuff”.
They act like learning about taxes is the most fun shit ever.
It is useful though, but I see both points.
Man LGBTQ stuff isn't even that complicated I'm pretty sure, its just thinking a bit and realizing "Damn I'm gay as fuck before planning and deciding when to come back, its just stressful but I don't know if its complicated enough for a lesson.
Also is math fun? No, is it useful to know? Yes, so why is taxes not being fun to learn relevant talking about if we should learn on them
@@Thesigmaone747 I understand I could have been a bit more clear on the learning about taxes part. I meant that the people that say “we should learn about taxes” probably wouldn’t listen if they did. Yes it’s useful and so is math but not everyone listens in those classes. It’s also an excuse for homophobes to make fun of the lgbtq+ community like “I would rather learn about taxes”
That "Sorry I made you gay" one with Jesus hugging the gay person before sending him to hell doesn't come across to me as homophobic or accidental ally. It must be satirical.
Its definitely homophobic, they see being gay as bad. Even with a good goal, the image is meant to represent homophobia
I think the question is what the intent of the comic is. Is it meant to be in support of homophobia or is it meant to criticize it? I think it's clearly meant to criticize it. The Christian God is supposed to be an all-loving entity who is all good all the time. But the comic depicts him choosing to make people gay knowing that that will cause them to suffer eternal torment. A god of pure goodness would not do such a thing, which is why I think it's meant to ridicule the idea that God cares about people's sexuality.
You could say that it depicts homophobia, but it depicts it to mock it. It depicts a homophobic Jesus or God because such an depiction makes a mockery out of what Christians generally believe their deity to be.
If the comic was meant to be anti-gay, it would never have depicted God as making people gay at birth. They generally rely upon the argument that people choose to be gay therefore it's okay to treat them hatefully. They can't say that their God makes people gay because then they would be hating people for their god-given natures.
@@draalttom844 but only recently. According to translations of the bible from Norway and Sweden, that commandment originally says *No Man Will Lie With A Child As He Would A Woman* but got updated in 1980 or something to read Another Man.

@@gearscore349 counterpoint: unless it's not
Hi Jamie!
Also yeah, I was gonna say "phobic" doesnt always mean fear.
Yep, these people seem to forget words like “hydrophobic” exist. Phobic also means you have an aversion to something, not just a fear of it.
Phobia is butchered these days. Its overuse has always irked me. To keep things simple I prefer the technical definition.
"A phobia is a persistent, excessive, unrealistic fear of an object, person, animal, activity, or situation. It is a type of anxiety disorder. A person with a phobia either tries to avoid the thing that triggers the fear, or endures it with great anxiety and distress." - Definition from Harvard Health.
@@kdog3908 to add to that, both homophobia and xenophobia are medically recognized phobias. And the list of phobias can be expanded as new types emerge
@@jayfalcon-rw3qc Agreed. The difference being a phobia is a significant, diagnosable and treatable condition. Conversely, someone who doesn't like Muslims might be a bigot but it doesn't necessarily make them an Islamophobe. Not liking something, for whatever reason, does not a phobia make.
@@kdog3908 well, here's a kind of hot take. Bigotry and mental illness are not mutually exclusive. So, there's bound to be overlap. I have a bad habit of talking to bigots, and for a lot of them, you can back them into a corner logically, and then the irrationality comes out, and it makes less and less sense. I'm not a mental health professional, but I suspect there's something like that going on, especially with homophobia and xenophobia. The things they tell me to justify their stance sound like it's deeply rooted in their personal psychology and emotions. But I'm not an expert by any means. The most common type I've met: cishet white men who have trouble maintaining relationships and seem to think that if they can't hold onto a woman, the world will think they're gay. The question is, where does the opinion end and the psychological problem begin? I think it's a grey area that we only notice when it becomes extreme and uncontrollable, as in when it gets violent
13:47 the only version of this joke I’ve ever liked is “I identify as none of your business, do not perceive me, my pronouns are is/not”. And that’s just because it was a trans person saying it as a rebuttal.
I'm pretty sure that the "sorry I made you gay" God meme was a pro LGBT meme that got picked up by the phobes because they didn't understand
I'm still a little puzzled about that one because typically they are committed to arguing that being gay is a choice, and that comic positions it as being effectively predestined. If the person who posted it is a Christian they were implying that their God is a malicious God. These are all things that they're typically committed to opposing. Not understanding satire is one thing, but posting a meme that implies that your God is a vicious monster unworthy of praise is quite something else.
I learned about both taxes and LGBTQ+ stuff. My government teacher taught about when the US legalized gay marriages, but other than that the LGBTQ+ stuff was from GSA, which I'm incredibly glad they offered
I hate people who try to get away with their bigotry by saying “it’s just a joke.” It’s disgusting.
The thing is, I make a lot of offensive and downright awful jokes with my friends, the difference is, it stops at a joke, and isn't a reflection of my actual opinion, like it is for many bigots. The difference is that it isn't JUST a joke for them, cuz it doesn't stop at the joke

The hetrochromia thing seems like an honest mistake, a person may not make it but if they mis-spell hetrochromia then autocorrect will likely go for the more commonly used word that looks like that. Well at least the first time, I seem to remember that becoming a small meme on a gay subreddit a while ago after the first pic surfaced.

the seatbelt "metaphor" is very interesting to me because, like... it's assuming one side is a peen and one is a vaj. but the reason seatbelts work is that they lock. and people don't "lock" during intercourse. so really, the seatbelt metaphor isn't about peen-in-vaj sex: it's about knotting.

11:56 i think they are trying to say Heterochromia.
17:58 this reminds me of the backlash memes to people pointing out various hints that Gwen Stacy may be trans, one of which being her color scheme being the same as the flag. They involved the same punchline with the same horrible symbol, but it was also dragging Miles Morales into it too like if one character is trans because of a flag color scheme, then this other character must be a notZ. Apparently.
I think the miles one might have been made to show the problem in the gwen assumption
@@Lizard_Ri the thing is, it was wasn’t the only or biggest clue. That was the “protect trans kids” trans flag above her door. The color schemes matching wasn’t something that would make or break the theory, but some people were mad and were willing to call someone who was helped by anarchist (who categorically don’t like NotZs) a NotZ just to prove it was silly when it was just a neat detail that fit well with a pre-established theory, not the basis of it.
@@starlydonati2008 that sucks, didn't know it
10:43 - As somebody who’s just now finishing up my years of education, I can confirm I never once learned about jobs, taxes or housing. The closest we got was teachers screaming “you need to know this for a career” and not elaborating. But we were also never taught ANYTHING even remotely not-straight. I learned about the community from seeing gay in The Owl House and wanting to know more. In fact, I don’t think I learned ANY important life skills in the school I went to. I’m coming out of school with a few qualifications and the social/living skills of a soggy loaf of bread.
So in other words, schools aren’t being useful either way, whether it is for or against their bigotry :D
When they think Pride is being proud of who you have sex with, it just goes to show they have no concept of oppression, because the pride comes from living as who I am despite all the pressure against it
Also, honestly, 'I identify as a danger, my pronouns are try/me' sounds like something a playful non-binary person would post.
Legit something I thought about saying as an enby, but didn't want people to mistake me for an asshole. Same with "I identify as a fucking problem". But I do joke about being numerous bees in a trench coat.
I have seen someone who is trans or trans adjacent use the attack helicopter line, and I had trouble understanding why. They seemed to feel that answering the question of gender was awkward, even though they were definitely in a safe space. They later explained that what they liked was the idea of people not knowing what their gender was. So I don't even know how to categorize them, but I don't even think it's the only time I've seen a possibly trans person use the attack helicopter line. I'm cis and I don't think I spend enough time in that world to understand what was going on. Perhaps it's an attempt to take ownership over the meme, I don't know. I don't suppose it's my place to offer judgment.
I want to say it so badly now, maybe the next time a transphobic asshole will show up I'll identify as a problem, with the pronouns of fuck/off
