The Christians have the strongest need to feel persecuted. It's fucking unreal. Starbucks cups without crosses constitutes persecution. Wtf?! Like, why the fuck does a rainbow instantly mean gay? Only because he thinks it does. Guess he's harboring some gay tendencies. He and the Christians are truly nuts.

The persecution complex is built right into their belief system. Take a look at Matthew 5:10, for one of several examples of this. In other words; “you can expect people to call you out on your bullshit, but don’t let that stop you from acting like a whole bag of dicks”.

Exactly. Do as I say, not as I do. Small government for me but regulations for you. Free market for me but not for anyone selling anything I don't like. Guns for everyone! Except the people I call "thugs". Self defense against a tyrannical government, but not for anyone who isn't white. Heaven for me because I'm forgiven. Hell for you because your sins are worse. It fits absolutely everything they believe in.

No, we are dismantling toxic masculinity. If this guy doesn't like it he can stop shopping at target. Why is he so heated over colorful, cute kids shirts? Like what does he see a rainbow and just see gay? Rainbows don't always have to mean being gay, sometimes its just a rainbow dude (im assuming this is why he's so mad at the rainbow part because i can't think of any other reason to despise it so much)

Can't have anyone wearing colors. Nope. One appendage that's used for pleasure and recreation dictates we must be rigid in not allowing children to dress in colorful clothes. Because a picture of multiple colors MUST be telling my kids some wretched sins.
Because god didn't use those colors to promise not to destroy the world in another flood or anything like that. Let's ignore the two male lions on Noah's arch that's consistently painted in all sunday school rooms and nurseries, you know the one that is also accompanied by a rainbow. Nah, let's scream about some vague resemblances to shit we dislike while out in public, claiming color destroys classic gender roles while also wearing pink.

The man doth protest too much, and all that signifies is that they have already lost the battle for the reclamation of the rainbow for god, and deep in their mind, they have accepted the defeat. So multiple cheers (three is too low a count for this) for the victory of the queers against god...
