Took this in Limerick.

  1. Never understood putting these on the roads. Basically letting people walk all over and drive on it.

    I wouldn’t want it for the national flag.

  2. There’s another one by the zebra crossing near the crescent shopping centre (the one by mc Donald’s not the one by the bus stop).

  3. As a queer person these aren’t just performative shite, but they’re also pretty rude in practise. They’re *designed* to be walked/driven over. Would rather the state put some money toward improving the lives of LGBTQ people directly instead of this shite.

  4. I wonder how long before one of those boy-racer assholes leaves a ton of rubber on this?? Or tins of paint all over it?? I won’t lie I think this is an epically stupid idea.

  5. I’m 100 percent behind equality for LGBT , but this is cringy and virtue signalling at its worst

  6. Must’ve took it a few weeks ago, because some eejit drove into the Locke Burger a while back and there’s still plywood over the damage.

  7. More cringey virtues signalling. I’m so embarrassed to be Irish seeing people tripping over each other and jumping on whatever this months bandwagon is. Pathetic.

  8. And there I was, convinced that this was yet another one of those homophobic road markings, thankfully I have now been assured that is not the case.

  9. As someone’s who’s under the LGBT umbrella, these are never asked for. They’re appreciated, sure, but we know this is so “allies” feel better. Gays are called groomers, trans kids are yelled at by millionaires, I’m still in the closet with people because I’m called “confused” and “greedy”, but thank Jesus we can walk on a rainbow on the way to get burgers and drink.

  10. Is the natural grey homogeneity of our built environments coming under threat? Will all concrete be this colour by 2050? I’m scared.
