As we weather yet another Pride month, it can be helpful to remember what Pride means and the hardships experienced by members of the LGBTQ community in this country — even now.
The Babylon Bee has put together the following list of sobering examples of how LGBTQ people are oppressed in the United States to this very day:
- There are only 37 parades in their honor per day: Any number of daily parades less than 40 is equal to a slap in the face.
- They are only represented by 7 characters in every TV show: There will be no equality as long as movies and television shows only depict 10 times the representation of reality.
- They are still required to be fully clothed when teaching their elementary school classes: Such bigotry.
- The Capitol hearing room is now off-limits for making sex tapes: Way to ruin it for everyone, creepy congressional staffer guy.
- They can only get married in Methodist, Lutheran, Episcopal, Presbyterian, Anglican, Unitarian, Baptist, and Quaker churches: Horrible.
- They live in daily fear of fake hate crimes: Fake assaults happen on every street corner of every city.
- They have only managed to get 75% of Christians fired for their beliefs: As long as any Christians remain employed and unostracized from society, there will be no justice.
- That one specific baker in Colorado won’t bake a wedding cake for them: It doesn’t matter that there are hundreds of bakers who will. This guy won’t.
- When they twerk naked in front of children, people say horrible things like “Hey, what do you think you’re doing?” and “Woah, knock it off!”: The blind hatred of these comments is horrifying.
- No gay person has been elected president since Barack Obama: Make the White House gay again!
Yes, LGBTQ people clearly still have an incredibly tough time here in America, as opposed to much more open-minded and accepting parts of the world, like brave Palestine.
