Here in THIS community? Really now? I'm surprised. You'd think anyone who was openly homophobic or anti LGBT would quickly find themselves with a very high percentage of the fandom against them. I'd be curious to ask you more about this in private.

Thank you for your reply! It is important for me to understand that I am not the only one who does not like this.

Capitalism took our pride and hetero-fucked it up.
How do I feel about that?
It's disgusting

Thanks for the answer! <3

I agree. It's completely hypocritical of them and I'd never commission an artist like that, knowing what they think of LGBT+ people.

Totally agree

To actively dismiss or even mock the struggles of LGBTQIA+ people while profiting off of them is cruel. Hypocrisy at its worst.

Thank you for your answer!

I mean, you can be a vegetarian and still work at McDonald's. Lol

If they are anti-LGBT+, I'd would just not interact with them. If you don't like that.

As They still have a right to be straight and have their opinions.
As you and I have a right to be (blank) and with X opinion's. 🤔

But I do feel you on that, like and the company's that put pride colors in their logos... When a lot of them don't give a fuck about pride. Just the good PR and money. <..<

Yeah, that's kind of what I mean. It's really weird to see an artist doing commissions with LGBT+ characters and then making disparaging comments about the entire community or some of its members in a chat where their clients aren't. I see it so often that I couldn't keep quiet about Pride Month this year.

I agree is slimy, but other than linking that to the people who commissioned them or blocking their content.

It's unfortunately not illegal. :/

I don't name people and I won't name them because I don't want problems. But I will continue my little fight against their hypocrisy.

👍

I think mocking anyone and then trying to make money off of them is disgraceful. If not just outright shit behavior. It's kind of like selling products you know are broken to people because you can make money off of it. (I'm going to clarify that I do not see people as broken though my example could be taken that way.) I find it hard to respect anyone who falls apart on their principles. Okay I'm going to stop here I could write a whole bunch on this sort of behavior, but I have things I want to get done today.

I feel like people should just be generally accepting of other people. If what someone is doing is not actively harming other people, then I have no problem with what people do. I do not agree with selling art that you disagree with it is why I don't draw porn. I have no problem with porn, but I chose not to draw it. (Even if it makes the most money from the numbers alone.) I chose to draw what I want to draw.

That being said. I think it is a shit person who thinks that other people are "less" than someone else. Like we are all alive and should build a better future. We can have our differences, but life is about finding ways to cooperate. We don't have to agree on everything.

Anyway, that's my random thoughts on the thing. Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Thank you for your answer! Very long and detailed. It's nice to see that I'm not the only one who is outraged by such behavior.

I find it saddening to be honest. I'm someone who has commissioned a vast amount of artists and I would hope that they would respect me and mine clients. I feel that artists, or any creators, who speak dismissively of us are no better than the companies that shrill out LGBT+ wellbeing just to make it seem like they care.

I feel artists who speak ill about our rights as people should be held accountable because usually their tune changes once their source of income is affected. I've seen it time and time again over many years. Sorry to hear that you have to see this and then feel the need to stay silent just to keep the peace so to speak.

However, thank you for speaking out since it always takes a lot of courage to do so and I for one really appreciate it! I'm hoping things will get better in time but that's still a load road ahead.

Thank you very much for your answer! It means a lot to me to know that I am not the only one who thinks this way. And I am glad that today there is one more drop of truth. Happy Pride Month!

Whoops, there are a few typos in that paragraph I wrote! =P Thank you though and Happy Pride Month to you too as well!

Чтож это и правда неприятно, когда люди пытаются наживаться за счет тех кого они ненавидят. Я мирный человек по своей сути и поэтому не собираюсь вести открытую войну. Но их отношение немного ранит.

Никто не говорит о войне, для меня в первую очередь важно знать, что не меня одну смущает, если не разочаровывает подобное отношение. Спасибо за твой ответ!

I know it's a business, and I get that every one is entitled to their own opinions, but to honestly mooch off of the people you look down on, I'm a nonon this.

I'm actually surprised at hearing this in this community - one who holds differences and acceptance at a high level... I guess it takes all kinds.

Thank you for your answer! It was very important for me to hear that.

I'm surprised that people like this can exist here in the community!
Like if they openly said something against LGBT+ somewhere, word gets around fast and knowing our community they would not be welcomed again.

Also it's disgusting and really sad they are "happy pride month everyone - here a pride themed YCH" but behind closed curtains don't care and are just after money. That's how it feels like anyways.

OMG, thanks for your reply! One more person who also finds this unacceptable.
