A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
LGBT history, I believe - the Stonewall Riots were a pivotal event in LGBT awareness and fighting for their rights. As it was a, well, riot, bricks were used, as is common for people spontaneously deciding to fight the power - a sort of "We didn't come here to brawl, but we'll tear up the streets if you want to make it one" energy.
It's rumour that the riot "officially begun" with a brick being thrown too.
And that brick was thrown by a trans woman. That's a definitely fact for sure
Ah, so it's symbolic and artistic. That's cool, I dig the creativity ๐
Thanks for the explanation.
