For when you need a laugh!
The definition of a "meme" here is intentionally pretty loose. Images, screenshots, and the like are welcome!
But, keep it lighthearted and/or within our server's ideals.

This is agitprop intended to divide. Don't be a sucker. Cis people didn't start pride month, and have never been excluded from it. All the queer people who are out at your local pride parade don't care about your shallow cynicism, and are more than happy to embrace and celebrate their humanity with anyone and everyone. That's the fucking point.
This is more of a commentary on how liberals etc. are happy to raise a pride flag on government buildings in June, but otherwise fail to be a real support.
And you would sincerely call those people "allies"?
They certainly think of themselves as such.
I'm not trying to flame you but I hope you can acknowledge that those corporate false-friends did not make this meme (presumably) and thus didn't have to get smuggled into the "cis allies" group. Even if you didn't make this yourself, your posting of it amplifies its message.
Those fake "allies" could have been labeled anything else but, by their inclusion, have been used to cheapen the actual support given by true, well-meaning allies.
