I tend to check social media much less than the average person, so this might be a really dumb question, but...

Why is it a brick? Does it symbolize something? Is it tool? Or a weapon? Or just some form of art?

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.

Actual bricks are rough and crumble a little bit occasionally, you'd probably want to coat that in some epoxy.

It identifies as a tile.

edit: based on the douchevoted I assume this joke is being labeled as anti-trans. Newsflash y'all: trans people can have a sense of humor as much as cis people. Give the hate hunt a rest.

It identifies as a projectile

To paraphrase, shout proudly and carry a brick.
