Manchester Pride using ‘God hates TERFS’ in the style of Westbro Church slogans

I don’t even know where to start with these pictures, the slogans and the fact that Westbro Church has tweeted in support.

Whilst the pics are on an open and blue tick Twitter account, I will say that close ups of at least one of the pictures may not be safe for work.

“The city is gearing up for Manchester Pride – just one week to go!! 🏳️‍🌈 See what's on”

“Westbro Church itself has come out in support of your slogans!”

“Using perhaps the most homophobic movement of the last 50 years to promote Pride isn't the best of looks, but perfectly apt”

The original tweet has been ratio’d, but I agree that this representation of LGBT is why so many people agree that LGB should be without the T. This is not Pride.

Maybe this is a start of supporters of gender identity ideology acknowledging that their beliefs are something akin to a religion. That will help everyone, both the faithful and those opposed.

I agree, it's worrying when people appropriate far right anti-semetic Islamophobic imagery.

Man Pride.

Can you just imagine the incoherent screeching if gender critical feminists had signs that said 'God hates trans people'? Also, I don't care if God hates me. I'm still right. Men can't turn into women.

MugginsOverEre · 21/08/2022 15:22

Some of those photos!!! Since when does standing up for same sex relationships mean it's okay to parade around in public in sexual fetish gear? Gimp suits and Dom/subs, men in fishnets and maid outfits that don't cover anything? Furries, exposed genitalia and all sorts. It's actually making homosexuality look as perverted like the homophobic arseholes have always said it was. An own goal if there ever was. And it's not even the majority of LGB people doing it, it's the perverts jumping in and adding the alphabet of bullshit. So sad.

To be sung to the tune of ‘What a friend we have in Jesus’

Only women have a cervix
Only women have a womb
It is not possible to grow one
Without the XX chromosome

Only women have a uterus
And only women menstrate;
Only women are breastfeeders
For only women can lactate.

only women grow placentas
And only women can give birth
yes, Only women can be mothers
It seems the Creator is a TERF

God help us all.

What does the sign about the imam actually mean? Is this just a general hate-fest towards everyone, or are the specifically targeting this person (fictive or otherwise) because of his faith?

PeriodBro · 21/08/2022 15:41

Sorry, forgot to attach ...

(from the Club's facebook page)

Sign reads : '2, 4, 6, 8 IS THAT IMAM REALLY STRAIGHT?'

@Allthegoodnamesarechosen absolutely love this Grin

EsmaCannonball · 21/08/2022 15:59

When I saw that photo I thought they needed less pride and more dignity. The movement is no longer a political movement for LGB people, it's been taken over by creeps and incels who just want to be creepy in public.

ticktickticktickBOOM · 21/08/2022 16:02

It's becoming more n more apparent that trans people are really just people with really terrible fashion sense

Helleofabore · 21/08/2022 16:03

I see Moleatthedoor has only had to tweak the pic a little on Twitter. It didn't need much of his attention at all though.

Only from a science perspectives, how much is all those points scientific facts ?

Hawkins001 · 21/08/2022 16:07

I'm only trying to ascertain, the scientific truth via my original question, no offence intended for anyone.

I'm getting a gorgeous pup playing with an inflatable ball from that link. It's lovely, but is it what you meant to post?

you can make up your own mind about the Creator ( although they’re watching….)

No... But if it cheers people up, then that is a bonus!! I mean, that is one very talented dog!

Apologies all.

Much appreciated for your analysis,
As for god, I believe in the freemasonary concept of a Devine being. But I don't believe the words as being "the truth" when humans have written them.

Every single thing in here is a scientific fact. It’s basic biology which is immutable.

Well maybe not quite "the XX chromosome", although I know what you mean and it's hard to make it scan otherwise. The XX karyotype? A pair of XX chromosomes?

The person in the "piss off" t-shirt. The double s reminds me of something.

That 'off' has been added by Moley. The original is just piss in the writing of KISS. Like that is interesting to anyone who has even a fluttering of an adult though, why? The addition of 'off' works better.

It’s a religion, now.

Good article discusses it

Helen Lewis was just on R4 discussing it. Was very interesting but they all turned up wanting dinner so I turned it off.

WarriorN · 21/08/2022 18:00

Just came to say that was a v relevant radio program!
