Welcome to LGBTQ Wrath Month.
Perhaps you are confused. “#LoveIsLove!” you tweeted. “Love wins!” you said.
And you meant well. You always mean well — the beer brands that used to mock us, the banks that denied us loans. The bachelorette parties that use us as props, the straight boys who assure us they are “cool with it” but do not get why we have to be so “in your face.”
So quick to fly our flag, and even quicker to take it down.
But now that June’s Pride Month is over and we’ve entered the muggy July heat, we are ready for a different celebration. By now you will have seen the observance of Wrath Month forming online. Now we find ourselves wondering: What is it that your love has cost you? And what makes you believe you have any right to hold it equal to ours?
We do not know what “love is love” means when you say it, because unlike yours, ours is a love that has cost us everything. It has, in living memory, sent us into exterminations, into exorcisms, into daily indignities and compromises. We cannot hold jobs with certainty nor hands without fear; we cannot be sure when next the ax will fall with the stroke of a pen.
You have co-opted our pride, but you cannot have our rage.
It is difficult, as with any meme that reaches critical mass, to tell how this month of wrath began, but it originated online almost certainly as a joke: What comes after Pride? Wrath.

Ugliness always shows itself because, more than anything else, ugliness wants to show itself in order to impose ugliness on good people.

They want to be worshipped every day of the year. They don’t shut up about their homosexuality all year long. Pride in sin month is a joke.
