LGBT Twitter users adopt ‘Pride Demon’ following conservative’s photo post.
Conservative Protest Against LGBT Movement Becomes Coveted Symbol for Pride Month
What began last week as a conservative protest against the LGBT movement has now become a coveted symbol that can be bought just in time for “pride” month.
Conservative activist Lauren Witzke of Delaware got the ball rolling last week by tweeting an image in which “pride month” morphs into the rainbow-colored word “demon.” She also posted an in-your-face denunciation of “pride month.”

Demons can seethe.
Christians are DONE taking crap from the LGBTQ Mafia.
We’re cancelling Pride Month, pouring out your Bud Light, shutting down your Targets, and we’re taking back the rainbow.
We will also stand up for our right to criticize your depravity in court.
No more…

“Demons can seethe. Christians are DONE taking crap from the LGBTQ Mafia. We’re cancelling Pride Month, pouring out your Bud Light, shutting down your Targets, and we’re taking back the rainbow. We will also stand up for our right to criticize your depravity in court. No more cowarding, no more pandering,” she wrote.
But just as Hillary Clinton’s slur that former President Donald Trump’s followers were a collection of “deplorables,” the “demon” touch struck a chord among many who adapted it on Twitter.

And in the long tradition of turning a profit when politics comes to a boil, the artist Veya, who had created and posted the image in 2022, made the image into a graphic just perfect for T-shirts sold online.

“Reclamation is important! They want to call us demons? Then we will embrace that,” Veya posted on the store’s website.
However, not everyone who uses the word thinks it is a joke.

Conservative Activist Sparks Controversy with Anti-Transgender Comments
In a recent speech, conservative activist Barnaby made headlines with his controversial comments about transgender individuals. He called them “demons and imps” and declared his unwavering support for traditional gender roles.
“This is the planet Earth where God created men male and women female. I’m a proud Christian conservative Republican. I’m not on the fence, not on the fence,” he said.
Barnaby’s comments have sparked outrage among the LGBTQ+ community, with many taking to social media to express their anger and frustration. However, some Twitter users have embraced the term “pride demon” as a way to reclaim the derogatory language used by Barnaby.
Standing Up for What You Believe In
While Barnaby’s comments may be offensive to some, it’s important to remember that everyone has the right to their own beliefs and opinions. However, it’s also important to stand up for what you believe in and speak out against hate and discrimination.
- Be proud of who you are
- Support the LGBTQ+ community
- Stand up against hate and discrimination
Together, we can create a world where everyone is accepted and valued for who they are.
