As the month-long pride events are celebrated around the world in June, institutions are vying to outdo each other in their support for the LGBT community. Politicians bow to their cultural overlords, corporates sponsor extravagant floats in so-called parades, and the rainbow flag is raised high above schools, city halls, and businesses. However, this visible sign of solidarity is not without controversy. LGBT activists are using tactics to portray themselves as victims and get institutions to actively show support for their agenda, as LifeSiteNews reports.

The victimhood scam

The playbook is simple. LGBT activists demand that everyone publicly display the LGBT flag to openly affirm their ideology. When some institutions choose not to do so, citing reasons ranging from religious beliefs to community unity, activists portray this as “backlash.” The Canadian media obediently reinforces this narrative by portraying activists as victims of their targets’ refusal to conform to their own fabricated expectations.

Recent examples

The York County Catholic School Board’s decision not to fly an LGBT flag at the Catholic Education Center in June sparked headlines and accusations from activists. One person claimed that based on this decision alone, the school board was “unsafe for the LGBTQ2IA+ community”, thus using their ideology against a religious institution.

Similarly, in Norwich, Ontario, the city council limited the flags that may be flown on city property to federal, provincial or municipal flags. This decision, intended to promote unity and harmony, was criticized as discrimination and a violation of human rights by activists who demanded that the specific flag representing their ideology be included.

The claim and the rhetoric

The sense of entitlement among activists who demand public display of their flags is concerning. They argue that their safety is at risk and communities are unsafe if their specific political views are not publicly supported. Activists equate refusal to fly their flags with bigotry and oppression, and imply that dissenting voices could lead to dire consequences. The press often reinforces these claims and stresses the importance of raising flags to appease activists.

Promotion of neutral and welcoming spaces

As LGBT flags become more prevalent, there is a growing need to create public spaces that are neutral and accessible to all. Rather than promoting a particular ideological movement, it is important to create an environment where diverse perspectives are respected and welcomed. A balance must be struck between respecting individual beliefs and promoting inclusiveness without imposing particular ideologies on the public.

The call for open support and the presentation of dissent as backlash show a worrying trend in LGBT activism in Canada. While support for the rights and dignity of all people is essential, it is equally important to respect diverse viewpoints and create inclusive spaces for dialogue. The goal should be to build bridges and promote understanding rather than engage in divisive battles over the public display of ideological flags.
