Cartoon Network Trolls Homophobes Hard For Melting Down Over Pride Month Fan Art

The cable channel's Instagram account shared several pieces of fan art depicting characters from beloved shows to celebrate Pride Month—and trolled several homophobes who sounded off in the comments.

The cable TV channel Cartoon Network, like most normal people, is celebrating Pride Month this month, and it did so with a post on Instagram that, predictably, has conservatives crying in their Cheerios like a bunch of triggered babies.

The post featured fan art depicting characters from the network's roster of shows over the years waving various LGBTQ+ Pride flags and the like.


For instance, one viral post featured drawings of Princess Bubblegum and Marceline from Adventure Time using a rainbow flag as a cape, along with a caption urging people to "live bravely" and "spread love."

By now we all know how much conservatives absolutely HATE IT any time anyone "spreads love," so of course they lost their ever-loving minds.

From puking emojis to right-wingers lamenting the supposed sullying of their childhoods, many people were deeply upset by *checks notes* cartoon characters acknowledging the existence of LGBTQ+ people.

And Cartoon Network was having none of it. They immediately jumped into the comments and started scrappin', with some of the most hilarious digs possible.

One comment from the network pretty much summed it all up perfectly:

"Watching comments be mad about characters from a show that aired 15 years ago 👁️ 👄 👁️"

But that was only the beginning. They started replying to bigots specifically to mock them.

To a troll whining that their childhood was now ruined by the existence of queer people, the network replied:

“Doesn’t seem like you’ve grown up tho”

To one that just commented a string of vomiting emojis, they were much more succinct, simply writing, "goodbye."

And they kept it up:

Even the more curmudgeonly folks online who said they usually hate it when corporate brands try to market themselves by joining online discourse admitted in a Reddit threat that Cartoon Network was an exception.

And in the comments of Cartoon Network's posts, they made sure to cheer them on for their efforts while also pointing out how dumb the uproar was in the first place.

Anyway, Happy Pride, you homophobic weirdos! We wish you the best of luck in healing the wounds this has inflicted upon you.

We've all heard the advice that when you want to start a new habit, you have to give yourself time for that habit to "stick," and you also shouldn't try to take on too many new habits at once.

While the easy answer to that logic is that it would be too much change at once and too much "new" to remember, it also could take the fun out of the new practice.

Giant AI-Generated Christmas Mural Removed After People Notice Some Truly Unhinged Details

Though many of us are worried about the prevalence of AI and its potential to take away the jobs of professional writers, artists, and designers, one truly haunted Christmas mural proves that AI is not ready to take on the responsibility just yet.

Ample theories are available for how this unhinged mural came to be, but a favorite is that an upper executive didn't want to approve an art budget for this year's mural and suggested AI instead, so a designer planned the worst option possible. Or someone turned immediately to AI, barely checked their work, and just hit the "approve" button.

Brooke Shields Has Hilarious Reaction After She's Given Awkwardly Short Chair On 'Today' Show

People who have not performed in front of a live audience might assume that adequate rehearsal time and production planning ensure things will go smoothly.

But seasoned performers will tell you that mistakes happen, no matter how well-rehearsed or fine-tuned the project is. When the mistake is obvious enough that the audience becomes aware of it, the best thing to do is laugh it off or incorporate the mistake into the program as much as possible to keep the show going.
