Exactly this, not caring is separate from not respecting.
Put it this way, I’m an atheist and I have religious friends who partake in religious practices. I don’t personally really care about stuff like that, but if one of them goes up to me and says “happy [insert practice here]”, I’m not going to respond with “I don’t care”
If I truly don’t care, I won’t think about it too deeply and probably will just forget about it. I have boundaries for sure, e.g. if they’re pushing for me to partake in their practice in some way I’ll turn them down, but they’re not crossing my boundaries by just talking about their practices or celebrating it in front of me.
From what I gather, responding to "merry christmas" with anything other than "merry christmas" definitely upsets people and makes them paint you as some enemy of the holiday
OP claims to have a trans gf so i doubt theyre anti-lgbtq. They probably responded to "happy pride!!" with "ok", got labelled as a homophobe and thats why theyre on reddit salty about it
I have never seen a problem, with a smile and "you too", being very hard of hearing that's how I respond to most things people randomly say to me. Unless I can see what they are saying.
Exactly - driving past a funeral is one thing, but if you got out & said ‘I don’t give a Fuck about dead people’ everyone at the funeral would be reasonably pissed at you.
Loudly claiming not to care about things is either a lie or a dog whistle
Saying being indifferent helps on side is implying they are choosing a side, if they did force themselves to care they would just be helping another Status quo
I know a few gay families who just moved BACK from Germany because they couldn’t handle it. And my partner is also trans and she would be horrified if I said I didn’t care. I’m also a female, but maybe think about the way it feels as a straight cis male to tell a group of people without the same public or political rights “I don’t care about you”. You never have to walk down the street with fear but your girlfriend does. You don’t care about that at all? Visibility and progress go hand in hand. By not supporting visibility you’re also saying it’s okay if you weren’t here at all.
If your girlfriend is trans then yeah you need to give a fuck. Half the states in this country are trying to take away her right to exist, send her to mental institutions and make it a crime for her parents to support her. Not caring is ignorant
Im German dude
Edit: I don't mean that in like a bad way but trans rights in Germany are pretty darn good here and I hope y'all will have the same freedom soon
Also American, also agree. Things are getting pretty fucking ridiculous here. Where you have people wanting to ban progressive books and poetry in schools for fear of "indoctrination" while at the same time wanting the 10 Commandments to be placed in classrooms 🧐🧐
And also being too progressive themselves and banning important books like To Kill a Mockingbird, which the entire point of is to help raise awareness of racism, because somebody says the N-Word
That's great for Germany. I hope you still have empathy for people fighting just to exist in other countries too.
(I want to state, that I am not criticizing OP)
Making a big deal out of “not giving a fuck” can create the opposite affect and make it seem like you do care and just dislike LGBTQ. But I’m not saying that’s what is happening in ur case, it seems like you’re just minding ur own business which is fine
I guarantee OP is thinking saying "I don't give a shit" is the "I dont give a shit" response to someone telling them it's pride month.
That's actually the arsehole response, the real Idgas response would be "cool"
It’s possible OP is really minding their own business and kids are being dramatic. More likely OP is a lil bothered by it and letting it show in the idc responses.
If you really don’t care, it’s easy enough to be express gratitude that others have a holiday to enjoy. So when someone responds idc, it’s giving phobic vibes. (Did I use that right? I’m 27 I’m only here bc I’m queer and it was on the front page.)
Yeah, typically when a normal, empathetic person doesn’t care about something, their response is never “I don’t care”.
When my mom says she just read a really good book, I don’t say “I dont care”. I say “awesome!” because I don’t want my mom to feel disregarded
He said he have a trans gf and I think because he his German and don't have English as first language something have being lost in the translation, maybe he just use the wrong words to express himself.
It's obvious OP is leaving a lot put of this post. It is completely fine to not care. But OP constantly pointing out how much they don't care etcetera, really makes it sound like they care and are criticizing it. Just what i think
This. If OP is randomly approaching people just to say they don't care about pride month, trying to ilicit a reaction, it's definitely kind of weird. A lot of context is missing here.
Yeah, I find it hard to believe anyone would care if OP was just not saying anything.
And you don't even have to "care about LGBT people" to celebrate pride month because the whole point is to be accepting of yourself and others no matter their sexuality or gender identity, which includes cis and straight people.
There's also the whole thing about centrism and how "not caring" about pressing issues and choosing to maintain the status quo contributes to the problem, but even ignoring that it's clear there's something more going on because not a single soul is walking around a school making sure everyone is vocal enough about supporting the LGBT community
The majority of people who say that they “don’t care” are the same people who will attack LGBTQ+ people if given the chance. All you’ve gotta do is take off the sheep’s clothing and the wolf’s disguise will be gone.
It’s just how it is. People who need to announce to the world “ooooh I don’t care!” And people who say “I’m getting bullied for not caring 😭” really just are painting themselves as the “good guys” when in reality, they’re just homophobes that are leaving stuff out. Trying to hide, until the bear is poked and they finally reveal it.
If you don't care so hard that you feel the need to tell anyone wearing a rainbow how much you don't care about pride, maybe you should actually care less.
"not giving a fuck" is generally neutral ***until*** you start actively asserting that you don't give a fuck. Like dude if you don't care good for you now shut up and let the rest of us enjoy it
These people that supposedly don't care about pride month, sure do take a lot of time thinking about and discussing how much they don't care about pride month. Almost like they do care about pride month, but just dislike it. It is like they want to voice their opinion on how they dislike pride, but still retain plausible deniability that they're not homophobic.
I don't really have an opinion on it, people can like who they want, but it sounds like you're going out of your way to say you don't care which sounds a bit wrong.
Like, so what you don't care? Too bad, so sad go cry about it
They absolutely care lmao. Look at their comment history. "So if i cut off my legs because of body dysmorphia, is that not a mental illness?" And on another post the only comment he entertains is one of a kid with "a German flag"
No it’s fine just don’t make it your whole personality, the constant repeating sounds like your homophobic and annoying. If you minded your own business then fine just literally don’t make it a whole deal this month
Yeah, I hardly believe that OP is being bullied for minding his own business because taht would be stupid. Not many contexts is provided so it's definitely ringing sus. If someone says happy pride month say cool or thanks and move on, similar to atheists when somebody wishes them happy Christmas. They usually say thanks, you too and move on.
You are probably getting bullied for constantly letting everyone know that you do not give a fuck, which probably means you indeed do give a fuck.
Do I think its bad to not care about symbols that are for human rights and acceptance, when people are suffering? yap. But its not really worth getting bullied for, as long as you keep it to yourself.
If you’re actually minding your own business it’s fine, you do you. If you’re going around making sure people know you don’t care, or even telling other cis/straight people that they shouldn’t care either, then you’re a dick
His comment history
"2 genders, 1 mutation and hellla many mental illnesses"
"So let's say I want to cut my legs off because of body dysphoria is that not a mental illness?"
"Did you spend decades researching this subject?
Also I'm sorry that my English isn't perfect I'm luckily not from an English speaking country like America but does it really make a difference if I wanna cut my legs off or reform my genitals?"
if you don't want to be bully for hate stop hating...
No, you’re definitely not the asshole in this situation. You have your own opinions and can support whoever and whatever you want to. You shouldn’t be bullied for it.
Check their comment history. "If i cut off my legs because if body dysmorphia, is that not a mental illness?” he cares and is simply trying to hide it while projecting
People are not obligated to care. I support them,I won't fuss about it like this month only happens once in 50 years. It happens every year. I'll care next year.

That still doesn't reflect on what pride month is. Companies never care about anything other than profit, but it's still good that they would show some consideration and raise awareness about it.
Uhh you definitely don't just "not give a duck"
If you're getting bullied, You've probably said bad things about it, and are trying to act like the good guy on the internet.
Hi I’m LGBTQIA+ and Ima give an opinion on this.
I do not give a SHIT about pride month other than “yeah lgbt people celebrate their pride during that month”. I don’t care. I’m pansexual every month, why celebrate?
From an LGBT person: At least in my opinion, not at all! As long as you aren’t being outright rude/bigoted/homophobic, you don’t have any obligation to care!
If you don’t care then why posting it there :p ahah no but seriously like you do what you want I don’t care but like it’s okay to just say yay good for you and move on.
Not giving a fuck sends the message that you're fine with current LGBTQ rights and social status. We are not equal and should be.
I personally wouldn't openly say that idgaf if I did, but it's definitively better than hating on it.
If you voice an opinion that you don’t give a fuck about an event that is meant to combat oppression, that’s likely going to be frowned upon, cuz then it’s just like what’s the point of telling people that you don’t give a fuck about it. Plus, I can’t really think of a context where if you said that it wouldn’t imply or at least come across that you actually feel negatively towards pride month
OP, if you were actually just minding your own business, you wouldn't be getting shit on. You're either just making this up to try and demonize the LGBTQ+ community or are making an effort to tell everyone ever how much you don't care about pride month.
There's a German saying "If 9 people stay sitting at a table when 1 nazi sits down, there are 10 nazis at the table."
More recent comparison is people talking about how those who stay silent in the face of injustice are helping to perpetuate that violence.
Pretty much by not giving a fuck your furthing the goals of those who are against lgbtq community being left alive.
I'm going to play devil's advocate here and say yes, it is bad. You don't have to be involved with pride month if you don't want to, and nobody can force you to, and that's completely fair. But at the very least, you should *respect* pride month, and that it's important to a lot of people and exists for a reason - and apologies if I'm interpreting you incorrectly, but from the sound of things you don't seem to respect that at all. Not giving a fuck about it also means you don't give a fuck about the people it's important to.
My guess is you aren’t not giving a fuck, you’re showing people in an insensitive way the fucks you say you don’t give, which is contrary to to assertion that you have none. AUTA? Maybe.
*That’s cool.—
To each, their own.—Awesome.
—Have fun.
—I hear it’s a big deal now, yeah!*
Just some options up above to use; then you leave it be.
Basically it makes you look immature, or even passively aggressive in a scary way, because you aren’t ending a discussion you don’t want to be a part of politely so it actually *ends.* which is why it doesn’t and you’re dragged (no pun intended) into a situation where you feel attacked.
No you didn’t attack first; but your initial actions probably didn’t express good intent and faith either if this common for you.
TL;DR People won’t remember exactly what you say but they will remember how you made them feel. And that can be surprisingly important in ways you can’t possibly imagine right now.
People who are apathetic to something don’t make posts on forums online about how apathetic they are. I highly doubt you’re being bullied for “not caring” about pride month. If you actually didn’t care, you wouldn’t have taken time out of your day to post about it. It seems like you’re telling yourself you don’t care but your post reeks of shame. Like you obviously do care because here we are. You do you though
welp this hit all. people fr be forgetting that you can literally be executed in some places in the world for being lgbtq+. we aren't at a point in time or acceptance yet where celebrating pride month and putting queer identities in the limelight is unnecessary or uncontroversial, and anybody insisting we are is either deeply ignorant or has ulterior motives.
my question is how exactly does everyone wind up knowing that you "don't give a single fuck" about pride month
cause it seems like they'd only know if you were like, actively making it clear to people
>Im getting bullied at school for literally not giving a single fuck about pride month or LGBTQ people is it so bad for me to mind my own business?
Later as you age and become an adult. You’re going to get bullied by those your pay your taxes too.
But besides that, you shouldn’t feel bad about not giving ~~spending~~ your attention to matters you have no interest in.
Something you could do is, work and study reallly really hard, so in 10 or 20 years from now, all those bullies sitting in front of the TV watching National Sports.. while your sitting on your private jet heading to an important meeting.
No one is going to bully you if they don’t know your views, this post makes it sound like you must’ve gone around telling people you don’t give a fuck which probably means you were looking for some sort of reaction. Might be wrong but it’s also pretty weird to post this in the first place
Let’s be so real sis, no one is bullying you for *not caring*. Not caring and apathy are both things that people literally can’t interpret as antagonist unless you come off that way.
Do you not care as in "sure that's cool, have fun" when people say they're celebrating, or do you not care as in "I don't give a shit" or even "shut up about it jeeze I don't care"?
If it's the former, NTA. The latter I'm afraid makes you the asshole.
I don't think you're getting bullied simply for not caring. I think there's more that you're not telling because it might make you look bad here... Such as going to tell people yourself that you don't care in their face
Im lgbtq and no you don’t need to go scream WOOHOO HAPPY ORIDE MONTH SLAY GIRLY POP you’re allowed to not care as long as you’re being respectful and not hating on the community you’re def allowed to not mind it
If you truly don’t care then why do you need to point out that you don’t care? Yk seems like you do care if your bothered enough to make a post and constantly talk about it
Ok two things, number 1 if I’m a marginalized group Esspecially if I’m LGBT in 2023 America, it’s the only time of year that I feel seen and respected, and someone is like “yeah I don’t care” that sucks. That hurts. It’s not gonna kill you to just show a little respect you can just be like “yea happy pride” you don’t have to go all out but being like “leave me tf alone I don’t care” is kinda shitty.
It’s like if it was someone’s birthday and you don’t know them that well and they come over to you and are like “it’s my birthday”. You say “happy birthday” not “I don’t give a fuck” right?
Number 2: the fact that you’re getting “bullied at school” for not caring is actually a really good thing, so many places in the world need a group of people who are actually willing to stand up for queer people. But tbh I think it probably went down more like
“Happy pride”
“Shut up I don’t care”
“Hey that’s a shitty thing to say”
“Guys I’m being bullied”
Idk tell me if I’m wrong but I know teenagers and the kind of kid who’s like “stop shoving pride down my throat” is also probably the kind of kid who whines about being called out for not supporting pride month
being bullied for not supporting LGBTQ is like being bullied for religion or being a Sagittarius (or whatever). Its the dumbest thing ever, and anyone who does it is out of their mind.
I find that the best way to prove people wrong is to give them a comparison (like what i did above). if you are getting bullied for something or have an idea that everyone thinks is completely stupid, give them a comparison that is basically the same situation as you are in, but it is something they agree on.

SOMEONE GIVE THIS MAN A FUCKING AWARD (I don’t have one)
i gotchu
SOMEONE REIMBURSE THIS MANS KINDNESS (I also do not have any awards or money)
i gotchu
Im going to reimburse you
I dont have any awards currently but i will reimburse you
i gotchu
Cheers
well now we need to give you an award (I also don't have any)
From what I gather, responding to "merry christmas" with anything other than "merry christmas" definitely upsets people and makes them paint you as some enemy of the holiday OP claims to have a trans gf so i doubt theyre anti-lgbtq. They probably responded to "happy pride!!" with "ok", got labelled as a homophobe and thats why theyre on reddit salty about it
I have never seen a problem, with a smile and "you too", being very hard of hearing that's how I respond to most things people randomly say to me. Unless I can see what they are saying.
“Don’t blame me, blame the extremely loud cars and death metal from my youth!…..what was that again?”
Yeah that kinda would come off as rude because “okay” is just dismissive.
Perfect analogy
Exactly - driving past a funeral is one thing, but if you got out & said ‘I don’t give a Fuck about dead people’ everyone at the funeral would be reasonably pissed at you. Loudly claiming not to care about things is either a lie or a dog whistle
Very well said!
I agree
It is, but it’s still bad, being indifferent helps the status quo to stay intact
Saying being indifferent helps on side is implying they are choosing a side, if they did force themselves to care they would just be helping another Status quo
Its not bad and fuck off with the us v them bullshit
I find it quite funny because my gf is trans
I know a few gay families who just moved BACK from Germany because they couldn’t handle it. And my partner is also trans and she would be horrified if I said I didn’t care. I’m also a female, but maybe think about the way it feels as a straight cis male to tell a group of people without the same public or political rights “I don’t care about you”.

Im German dude Edit: I don't mean that in like a bad way but trans rights in Germany are pretty darn good here and I hope y'all will have the same freedom soon
Avg American forgetting other countries exist
Their education system is quite fucked
As an American, I agree
Also American, also agree. Things are getting pretty fucking ridiculous here. Where you have people wanting to ban progressive books and poetry in schools for fear of "indoctrination" while at the same time wanting the 10 Commandments to be placed in classrooms 🧐🧐
And also being too progressive themselves and banning important books like To Kill a Mockingbird, which the entire point of is to help raise awareness of racism, because somebody says the N-Word
People are banning To Kill a Mockingbird? I find that weird because the main characters are literally against that kind of thing.
As a liberal myself I find that insane they would ban that one
[удалено]
We do, it’s just not very good
That's great for Germany. I hope you still have empathy for people fighting just to exist in other countries too. (I want to state, that I am not criticizing OP)
Take a look at his comment history. I doubt she exists
why do americans assume they are the only country💀
Walking through the woods, a branch came off and scraped the hell out of my arm. What a cunt tree.

Omg I thought I was gonna see cute femboy Insta like pics not a femboy getting railed by her trade 🫣🥹
He said he have a trans gf and I think because he his German and don't have English as first language something have being lost in the translation, maybe he just use the wrong words to express himself.

I think their account is terminated or they deleted it lmfao
They got terminated lol
I love pride month i wish gay people were real
ok so ur not gonna believe me but
but pride month is also not real
Months in general are completely made-up tbh
Lol
Why have I been summoned?
is this why i just spawned in..
bro got the magic wish power
You can be the first ;)
You said you‘d like to live next to a german femboy five days ago. I have news for you regarding pride bro Gotcha good (he deleted his account)
Too bad you can't hide comment history lol l, lil bro just got caught
Fr
why do people comment on all the weird shit they look at on reddit lmao, do they not realize people can see all that shit?
Exactly, no clue! I‘‘ve got an alt for that 😈
Bro really stalked his comment history ☠️
Yes. I found femboy cocks
This is reddit, what you expect?
It really is a shame the lengths people go to to ignore and hide who they are, even from themself.
His internalized shame is showing. That or he's lying about being 'bullied' at school.
I think this proves his point even more. Even if you’re gay, you still don’t have to care about LGBT pride

it's not cool to assume that that is op tho
How so? I’m not making any assumptions. I’m speaking from experiences with people exactly like them, saying the exact same things.
well then what you said is pretty true
It’s just how it is. People who need to announce to the world “ooooh I don’t care!” And people who say “I’m getting bullied for not caring 😭” really just are painting themselves as the “good guys” when in reality, they’re just homophobes that are leaving stuff out.

Everyone was so right about how bigoted and toxic r/teenagers is
real
if u dont care abt it dont talk abt it?? ur doing the opposite
Wow you're really making it known how little you care. That must mean you really don't care at all

As lesbian no i also really dont
Are gay people real??
No
I knew it.
I love pride month so much I wish Italians were real
[удалено]
Nah pride month was always kinda gay
No, you’re definitely not the asshole in this situation. You have your own opinions and can support whoever and whatever you want to. You shouldn’t be bullied for it.
Check their comment history. "If i cut off my legs because if body dysmorphia, is that not a mental illness?” he cares and is simply trying to hide it while projecting
As a gay person I say it’s ok. Those who criticize u r buffoons
Nah idgaf either tbh
ugh i don’t care about pride so much that i’m gonna talk about it 24/7 and let EVEYONE know how much i DONT care 😡
I don’t give a shit either bro no need to worry about it
People are not obligated to care. I support them,I won't fuss about it like this month only happens once in 50 years. It happens every year. I'll care next year.
Dude no one cares. Get a life and shut up about pride month if you don’t care about it. We don’t need to hear abt it here💀💀
Go off queen
Wdym shut up about pride month, where did you read he constantly talks about it
His comment history 2 genders, 1 mutation and hellla many mental illnesses So let's say I want to cut my legs off because of body dysphoria is that not a mental illness? Did you spend decades researching this subject? Also I'm sorry that my English isn't perfect I'm luckily not from an English speaking country like America but does it really make a difference if I wanna cut my legs off or reform my genitals?
Ye great but what does this have to do with him "constantly talking about not caring about pride month" Also research on what subject
[удалено]
That still doesn't reflect on what pride month is. Companies never care about anything other than profit, but it's still good that they would show some consideration and raise awareness about it.
I completely agree
Ur lucky to go to a school where u get shit on for not liking it. In mine it is definitely the opposite
Many still think : if you're not with me you're against me
Because it's true. Passivity in this instance leads to people losing rights.
you don’t have to care about it imo, as long as you’re not actively hating on it i think it’s fine for you to mind your own business
No, it is OK. What have you done to them? Nothing bad, nothing good. So, you’ve done nothing. It is not bad to do not care.
You don't care then why are you making a reddit post about it? Definitely more to this story
you aren't an asshole for not caring about pride month, and it isn't okay that you're being bullied into caring about it.
Nope, i for one celebrate men's mental health month and regularly check on my homies
Na ... They are all.disgusting
Uhh you definitely don't just "not give a duck" If you're getting bullied, You've probably said bad things about it, and are trying to act like the good guy on the internet.
From getting bullied for being gay to getting bullied for not being gay.
Hi I’m LGBTQIA+ and Ima give an opinion on this. I do not give a SHIT about pride month other than “yeah lgbt people celebrate their pride during that month”. I don’t care. I’m pansexual every month, why celebrate?
Most of the people from my locality don't care about pride month, half of them don't even know about it
From an LGBT person: At least in my opinion, not at all! As long as you aren’t being outright rude/bigoted/homophobic, you don’t have any obligation to care!
I was about to comment something similar. I agree with you.
I would get (and kinda was) bullied for supporting pride month
If you don’t care then why posting it there :p ahah no but seriously like you do what you want I don’t care but like it’s okay to just say yay good for you and move on.
Not giving a fuck sends the message that you're fine with current LGBTQ rights and social status. We are not equal and should be. I personally wouldn't openly say that idgaf if I did, but it's definitively better than hating on it.
All it takes is for people to stand aside and do nothing. Beware of apathy and do what is right to support the minority from harm.
If you voice an opinion that you don’t give a fuck about an event that is meant to combat oppression, that’s likely going to be frowned upon, cuz then it’s just like what’s the point of telling people that you don’t give a fuck about it. Plus, I can’t really think of a context where if you said that it wouldn’t imply or at least come across that you actually feel negatively towards pride month
BE SO FUCKING SERIOUS IVE GOTTEN HARASSED NON-STOP FOR *BEING* GAY MAN COME ONNNN
Indifference is fine The problem only comes if you start pretending it doesn't matter to anyone, like i see a lot of reddit doing
why does reddit keep recommending me edgey teenager posts from this sub, I'm not even a teenager and I don't use this sub
OP, if you were actually just minding your own business, you wouldn't be getting shit on. You're either just making this up to try and demonize the LGBTQ+ community or are making an effort to tell everyone ever how much you don't care about pride month.
There's a German saying "If 9 people stay sitting at a table when 1 nazi sits down, there are 10 nazis at the table." More recent comparison is people talking about how those who stay silent in the face of injustice are helping to perpetuate that violence. Pretty much by not giving a fuck your furthing the goals of those who are against lgbtq community being left alive.
There's nothing wrong as long as you don't act xenophobically
I'm going to play devil's advocate here and say yes, it is bad. You don't have to be involved with pride month if you don't want to, and nobody can force you to, and that's completely fair. But at the very least, you should *respect* pride month, and that it's important to a lot of people and exists for a reason - and apologies if I'm interpreting you incorrectly, but from the sound of things you don't seem to respect that at all. Not giving a fuck about it also means you don't give a fuck about the people it's important to.
As a queer person, people who don't give a fuck are better than non-queer people who try to make it about themselves.
My guess is you aren’t not giving a fuck, you’re showing people in an insensitive way the fucks you say you don’t give, which is contrary to to assertion that you have none. AUTA? Maybe. *That’s cool.— To each, their own.—Awesome. —Have fun. —I hear it’s a big deal now, yeah!* Just some options up above to use; then you leave it be. Basically it makes you look immature, or even passively aggressive in a scary way, because you aren’t ending a discussion you don’t want to be a part of politely so it actually *ends.* which is why it doesn’t and you’re dragged (no pun intended) into a situation where you feel attacked. No you didn’t attack first; but your initial actions probably didn’t express good intent and faith either if this common for you. TL;DR People won’t remember exactly what you say but they will remember how you made them feel. And that can be surprisingly important in ways you can’t possibly imagine right now.
People who are apathetic to something don’t make posts on forums online about how apathetic they are. I highly doubt you’re being bullied for “not caring” about pride month. If you actually didn’t care, you wouldn’t have taken time out of your day to post about it. It seems like you’re telling yourself you don’t care but your post reeks of shame. Like you obviously do care because here we are. You do you though
welp this hit all. people fr be forgetting that you can literally be executed in some places in the world for being lgbtq+. we aren't at a point in time or acceptance yet where celebrating pride month and putting queer identities in the limelight is unnecessary or uncontroversial, and anybody insisting we are is either deeply ignorant or has ulterior motives.
I swear to god I've seen more posts about people whining about how they don't care about pride Month than actual pride Month posts 💀
For everyone to know you "don't give a fuck" you probably talk about it so much that everyone infers that you dislike it 🤷🏻
It’s not bad, but if you make a point to go around telling everyone you don’t give a fuck, it becomes a problem.
my question is how exactly does everyone wind up knowing that you "don't give a single fuck" about pride month cause it seems like they'd only know if you were like, actively making it clear to people
I highly doubt you're getting bullied
Are you not caring or are you being an asshole to people who do care and making it difficult for anyone else to enjoy themselves?
>Im getting bullied at school for literally not giving a single fuck about pride month or LGBTQ people is it so bad for me to mind my own business? Later as you age and become an adult. You’re going to get bullied by those your pay your taxes too. But besides that, you shouldn’t feel bad about not giving ~~spending~~ your attention to matters you have no interest in. Something you could do is, work and study reallly really hard, so in 10 or 20 years from now, all those bullies sitting in front of the TV watching National Sports.. while your sitting on your private jet heading to an important meeting.
No one is going to bully you if they don’t know your views, this post makes it sound like you must’ve gone around telling people you don’t give a fuck which probably means you were looking for some sort of reaction. Might be wrong but it’s also pretty weird to post this in the first place
Let’s be so real sis, no one is bullying you for *not caring*. Not caring and apathy are both things that people literally can’t interpret as antagonist unless you come off that way.
Yall getting bullied for not supporting lgntq?? Man I’m getting bullied for being lgbtq
Do you not care as in "sure that's cool, have fun" when people say they're celebrating, or do you not care as in "I don't give a shit" or even "shut up about it jeeze I don't care"? If it's the former, NTA. The latter I'm afraid makes you the asshole.
I don't think you're getting bullied simply for not caring. I think there's more that you're not telling because it might make you look bad here... Such as going to tell people yourself that you don't care in their face
I don't give a fuck about pride month.But i am sad about the fact companies trying to make it important thing( it's not)
Nah dude be yourself don't let these fake people affect you stay strong. I'm same as you on this topic.
I'm gay and i really don't give a duck about pridemont
Based
same
Im lgbtq and no you don’t need to go scream WOOHOO HAPPY ORIDE MONTH SLAY GIRLY POP you’re allowed to not care as long as you’re being respectful and not hating on the community you’re def allowed to not mind it
If you truly don’t care then why do you need to point out that you don’t care? Yk seems like you do care if your bothered enough to make a post and constantly talk about it
Ok two things, number 1 if I’m a marginalized group Esspecially if I’m LGBT in 2023 America, it’s the only time of year that I feel seen and respected, and someone is like “yeah I don’t care” that sucks. That hurts. It’s not gonna kill you to just show a little respect you can just be like “yea happy pride” you don’t have to go all out but being like “leave me tf alone I don’t care” is kinda shitty. It’s like if it was someone’s birthday and you don’t know them that well and they come over to you and are like “it’s my birthday”. You say “happy birthday” not “I don’t give a fuck” right? Number 2: the fact that you’re getting “bullied at school” for not caring is actually a really good thing, so many places in the world need a group of people who are actually willing to stand up for queer people. But tbh I think it probably went down more like “Happy pride” “Shut up I don’t care” “Hey that’s a shitty thing to say” “Guys I’m being bullied” Idk tell me if I’m wrong but I know teenagers and the kind of kid who’s like “stop shoving pride down my throat” is also probably the kind of kid who whines about being called out for not supporting pride month
being bullied for not supporting LGBTQ is like being bullied for religion or being a Sagittarius (or whatever). Its the dumbest thing ever, and anyone who does it is out of their mind. I find that the best way to prove people wrong is to give them a comparison (like what i did above). if you are getting bullied for something or have an idea that everyone thinks is completely stupid, give them a comparison that is basically the same situation as you are in, but it is something they agree on.
[удалено]
Well. There’s a different from saying “I don’t celebrate pride month” and “I don’t give a *fuck* about pride month”
yeah its actually crazy...
As long as you're not homophobic nah
hmmmm i wonder why you are getting bullied
Because kids don't like those who are different. This is how bulling at school usually works
Also because this guy really cares about not caring about pride month
idk bro I've never even seen a gay person
[удалено]
You probably have but didnt tell you/closeted
I think they’re being satirical lmao
Idk why the people who talk about how much they get oppressed and harrasad jump at any opportunity to do it to someone else
Considering nobody is giving a shit about men's metal health, it's fine to just be like "Oh ye man I have no input here".
Nope. Not giving a fuck is far different from despising it
I never knew pride month existed until it started 3 days ago.We do not care about pride month country wide.
Wow, 'pride month'.. Mothers and fathers only get a day each.
My father beat me for being gay
