Donald Trump's recent reposting of the Pink Triangle, originally used by Nazis to label gay men, on his platform Truth Social, amidst a wave of anti-LGBTQ+ executive actions, highlights a concerning trend. Trump's administration has reinstated bans on transgender individuals in the military and prohibited healthcare for trans youth. The reposted image accompanied an article critical of inclusivity in military advertising under Biden, signaling a broader cultural and political shift favoring aggression over diversity in U.S. military messaging.
The downwards Pink Triangle that Trump reposted is an insignia that dates back to Nazi Germany; it was used to mark gay men in concentration camps.
Trump's latest posts reflect a dangerous and aggressive shift in policy, adopting symbols that are profoundly hurtful to the LGBTQ+ community.
