minus-squareVerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up15·2 days agoNo idea where you’re located, but in America there are a lot of right-wing religious wingnuts that enjoy street-corner preaching, as it were. Most of this preaching involves carring signs with a fire-and-brimstone message and yelling about how the passers-by need to repent. The most famous example would be the Westboro Baptist Church (cw: slurs, homophobia, antisemitism, etc) Anyway, it’s common for audiences to troll these guys with gayness.
