Please don't put a rainbow in your window!

[RuffleCrow]

For the past few years the rainbow has sadly becomea symbol of silencing, sexual stereotyping and oppression for a lot of women and those in the LGB community. If you're thinking of putting one up, please think about how that may make women feel - many of whom have already experienced death threats and lost their friends and jobs thanks to those who wield the rainbow flag as a weapon.

I just saw two on my walk just now and it made me feel like shit. Not the intended effect I'm sure. Please consider something else: the sun coming out from a cloud, or a simple landscape. Thanks.

It's for children and mindfulness colouring ...... get a fucking grip

Ha ha @nomdefuckit

Had a shit day. Might have something to do with a disease going round which might kill half my family...

This thread pissed me off

Kill it with fire rainbows

@nomdefuckit

I tried to copy and paste your rainbows but it said my message was too long . What is your trick?!?

Now got "Paint the whole thread with a rainbowwwwww!........" earworm lol

Rage

Whaaa 😱 fgs

"Up above the streets and houses....."

@nomdefuckit I'm in agreement with you, but that multiple rainbow thing is really annoying and making it pretty impossible to navigate this page. I think the OP got the drift.

That's the idea @saraclara

Oh shit you better let the sky know this! There was a huge one up there the other day.

11. And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.17 And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.

Genesis King James version

I'm an atheist, but the Bible got first with the symbolism of the rainbow.

A rainbow is a symbol of a promise from God- a symbol of hope. Stop being a twat about it

@nomdefuckit steady on with the rainbows. It might look like you're trying to shut down a thread you don't agree with. That's not allowed.

I wondered why the Interweb was so slow today.

Whatever you think about the thread. Spamming it so it’s unreadable is really shitty.

I guess from a religious point of view it means ‘right you lot - don’t forget what happened last time you all pissed me off. No more Mr Nice Deity...’ a bit less cuddly then.

@nomdefuckit since 99.9% of people disagree with the OP, what's the point in trying to shut the thread down. You're just being annoying and childish.

Stop posting loads of rainbow emojis. I believe it screws things up for people who use screen readers.

As well as being tedious.
