I really, really, really cannot fathom the level of willful ignorance required to believe β€œit’s β€˜LGBT’, I don’t see aces in there” is a legitimate argument.

Like, where do you think that term came from? β€œLGBT” was not handed to us from on high. It’s not a fundamental law of the universe. It’s not even that old as an accepted term. It’s the latest iteration of a series of shorthands attempting to refer to groups supposedly standing in solidarity with each as a shared community, with shared problems and shared goals and hopes. It’s an umbrella term, and whenever we realize we’ve left someone out in the rain, we get a bigger umbrella. It’s actually already happening, you can’t pretend it isn’t.

So, seriously, if you think somehow a recently coined phrase is the absolute word of truth with who does or doesn’t belong in this community, get bent.

Happy Pride Month everyone!

I couldn’t add every flags but I mostly put what I thought was relevant to them πŸ˜€ (of course those are ideas but you can disagree with it!)

Anyway I hope you liked it!
