It was an in-your-face sarcastic response to someone who acts an awful lot like you do. I was caricaturing their view of conservatives, which is that of a bunch of bigots. I can see from your posts over and over again that you share that view. In fact, you could be them.
I apoligize this isnt the right post to respond too. Its too early in the morning, so i picked the closest one i could find.
Id ping the rest of the folks involved though i cant remember who they all were. I thought this might help, in the future:)
I was really curious about all the hub bub surounding this posting of a pink triangle (i didnt see it).
I was so intrigued by it that i emailed my sister (over 50% of her circle of friends are gay males). yes, yes, shes a flaming lib!
Anyways, so she told me that we all look foolish (actually i think she used the word ignorant) here by being offended by the symbol.
she said that yes, the pink trianle was a nazi symbol at ONE TIME.
but they have since reclaimed as thier own as well as the black triangle for lesbians. Its considered a symbol of pride, as much so as the rainbow flag.
Im not sure how it was meant, or why some folks would be enraged by it?? I musta missed something AGAIN. Im always a day late and a dollar short;)
Anyway, i thought it might help for anyone reading to know that its not a bad symbol at all, atleast not to the gay and lesbian community.
Infact they consider it a very bold sign of thier refusal to conform.
