A lot of the gay elders i know are tired of history being changed when they were actually there. Unfortunately the biggest myth is that [Marsha P. Johnson] started the stonewall riot and kicked off the lgbt movement.

But in fact she wasn’t even there when it started. She also referred to herself as a drag queen/transvestite... not trangender. Sylvia Rivera is the one who is trans not mpj.

If anything it was likely a big butch lesbian who started it.

There wasnt even a brick that started the riots. A lot was happening at once, but it most like started when cops began harassing Butch Lesbian Stormè DeLarverie and someone, no one is sure who, stepped in to her defense. Violence broke out and next thing we know, we have the stonewall riots. Maybe bricks were thrown with Molotovs, but no one can be credited with doing anything first except maybe DeLarverie asking for help.

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?

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

🥱 Brick

☺️ Brick with built-in sling for maximum control and power

To paraphrase, shout proudly and carry a brick.

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.

That's no brick; it's a universal multi-tool.

Mmm, layer cake
