Thread: For many this Pride is one of the scariest of modern times. Criminalisation of Trans kids & adults, banning of Pride, media campaigns against LGBT+ ppl, violence & persecution are found from the EU, thru the UK to the US.

I want to show how LGBT+ ppl are heroic. Image
Willem Arondeus (1894-1943) was a Dutch artist & writer, a proud gay man, a founder member of the Dutch Resistance & Righteous Among the Nations for saving Jewish lives.

He demonstrated that LGBT+ ppl are not cowards & will not be cowed. Image
He grew up in Amsterdam. When he was 17 he told his parents that he was gay & they later kicked him out for refusing to hide it (aged 18). To eke out a living he painted, created illustrations & wrote. He discovered in himself a fierce independence. Image

During the Irish same sex marriage [SSM] referendum I pointed out to a friend that the Irish media’s coverage was homophobic & dehumanising.

They, a straight cis guy, who supported SSM disagreed. I proved it to him, to his shock, & he donated to the Yes side in response.
I asked him to replace every mention of Gay or Lesbian, in a newspaper article, with Jewish.

He came back to me saying ‘do you realise how bad this is?’ 👀

He was genuinely shocked.
So here’s another exercise everyone can try.

Show me a Gutter Critter & I’ll show you a Nazi.

It really is chilling how mainstream this hate is, not just online but, in the media.

It amazes me the number of ppl with ‘Christian’ in their bios who seem to be completely unaware of Jesus being Gay. There are gonna be some awkward conversations at the Pearly Gates [John 13:23]*

Happy Pride! Image
*given that entire ‘churches’ are based on Leviticus & a disputed version of who can shag who, it’s amazing that Christianity overlooks how often JC is shown as Gay for Jonno. Leviticus, BTW, also says it’s AOK to own slaves, sinful to wear cotton-Lycra jocks & eat surf & turf…
Matthew 7:5 has some relevant side-eye

Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

The stupidity of ethnic English nationalism really is breathtaking. Europe is not miles away -
the British border is in Ireland [no wonder these tulips tied themselves in knots over it!]. In light of that ignorance, not knowing that GBS is Irish, is relatively minor!
I think that colonial history should be compulsory in English schools. Being a nationalist is the norm in most of Europe. However being an ethnic nationalist, with its emphasis on exclusion, is [to put it mildly] problematic. Ask anyone who has studied the period 1939-45.
Just to be clear Matthew was being humorous & I was agreeing with him. Today I’ve really realised how few ppl actually read threads & jump on the first Tweet with their opinion. Having said that I doubt anyone will read this 😉 .@DrMatthewSweet

Thread: To celebrate Pride Month I put together a celebration of LGBT+ artists & writers who have been central to Irish culture & our sense of who we are. Given past persecution it’s impressive how important they have been or are presently! ImageImageImageImage

Thread: I love using bold vibrant colours, pattern & clarity of line in my ink on paper drawings. Sometimes they look deceptively simple, but if you zoom in you can see why they can take up to eight hours to draw. Here’s some more drawings Image
