The group of LGBTQ activist climbers said the flag, which is 55 feet by 35 feet, is the largest ever displayed on the face of the world-famous rock climbing destination.
Reminds me of the time runescape did a pride parade and everyone got mad because we are there to enjoy a game and escape from this for a bit, not because we oppose it in any way.
I think permanently carving the faces of a bunch of genocidal slave owners into an indigenous people’s sacred mountain, is infinitely more offensive than a marginalized group temporarily putting up a flag.
Indigenous folks opinions about the pride flag protest are most certainly varied. Collapsing all indigenous Peoples has having a single opinion is the real white people behavior.
Bro, if you want to get away from people, Yosemite ain’t it. It’s about as glamping as it gets you can get 5G signal basically across the whole valley. There’s cars and people everywhere, including whole ass traffic jams so that people can drive right up to bridal veil falls.
No it fucking isn’t you gigantic dork, and of the many countless fucked up things we’re currently doing to the environment hanging a flag on a cliff wouldn’t make the top thousand
It’s still disrespectful lol. People are there to enjoy nature and might not appreciate a flag on the side of the mountain
I leave the city to get away from people, not be reminded of them
What if it was an American flag? All you guys would suddenly be agreeing with me
You’re right. Protest should be as inconspicuous and unobtrusive as possible.
What do you think indigenous folks opinion is of this?
Headline calls El capitan “iconic” but a better word is “sacred” and this is just white people behaviour
Indigenous folks understand protesting for marginalized people, I’d wager.
I’d wager in this case you are wrong but unfortunately nobody asked them as per usual
I don’t understand what has you so upset about this. El Capitan was not defaced. The flag is no longer there and left no lasting traces.
I’m just pointing out that it’s not the place for this and I know I’m right
There is no “right place” for protest. You’re arguing for the status quo. Protest is supposed to make people uncomfortable.
“I know I’m right.” That’s childish talk.
There is no right place to people who don’t like the message, and that’s the only reason for your opposition.
I have no problem with the message at all.

You don’t have a clue what you’re talking about
You likely have never even climbed a mountain lol
Even if that were true it wouldn’t make your opinion any less stupid, but also you’re wrong lol

Oh yeah Mount Rushmore is a disgrace, obviously not even close to the same level
They have their own transgender called two-spirit so they’d be fine with it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That’s actually disputed among historians
The term “two spirit” is iffy, but there 100% were third/multiple genders in many indigenous societies.
We have pictures of We’Wha for example.
I’m Choctaw ish, wasn’t raised in it but there’s conceptions of third genders in Choctaw and Chickasaw cultures.

Oh I know. You guys might as well open up a starbucks on el capitan.
Cry about it
Thankfully I don’t live in the states and I’m not subjected to this bs in real life
So you’re just whining for the sake of whining, cool
So you have no respect for nature, cool
I’m pretty sure “cry about it” is what the whites said when they stole this land
Nature doesn’t care about the flag or your feelings, cry harder dipshit
I mean nature is literally disposing of us as we speak due to how we treat nature
No it fucking isn’t you gigantic dork, and of the many countless fucked up things we’re currently doing to the environment hanging a flag on a cliff wouldn’t make the top thousand
