If the US military messaged that they were proud to have Latino/Black/Native Americans/Pacific Islanders in their ranks, would such messaging strike you as ‘pretty gross’?

I'm a queer man. I take no offense to pride flags lol. I promise I don't hate the pride flag. Just look this up on twitter, and you will see that 99 percent of people think this is insanely gross. Like one twitter user I saw pointed out (I can't find the tweet anymore), the military should be sending out messages of reconciliation and apology for their extreme homophobia over the years. This is what gay people want to hear, and it would mean a lot more than cringey virtue signalling by wrapping weapons of war in the pride flag. Get some cool little rainbow flag dog tags or something. Not flipping bullets.

How incredibly tone deaf to have the bullets be the pride flag after a major school shooting.

Love wins, but representing the pride flag on bullets? The message is a bit mixed.

Because the LGBT liberation movement is not about holding up Imperialism. I don’t believe that you can’t see how turning the Pride flag into US military bullets a wild misappropriation & utterly absurd.

When these bullets enter the skulls of children those children will die knowing that the marine who fired them is filled with gay pride

inclusion is nice - but holy fuck is the messaging of rainbow bullets badhttps://twitter.com/LynKiana/status/1532515169204457472
USMC acting like they support pride and putting rainbow bullets on their helmet is honestly borderline offensive. Signed a now gay ex military wife

from theMarines!Because when a hot round is blasting through a small brown child’s chest at a mosque, let’s make sure it’s gay friendly!
Amazing.
I’m done now.
Happy pride month, ya queers.
