Twitter users have re-asserted the proud Boys’ hashtag with photos and tweets depicting LGBTQ’s love in an attempt to draw the attention of the controversial group. It is not clear whose idea it was, but it is believed that the campaign was thanks to pressure from actor George Tekai, who tweeted the idea on October 1.
He wrote, “If gay guys make pictures of themselves with each other or take pictures of very gay things, then they ted themselves with #ProudBoys. I claim it will mess them up in real bad.
In the first presidential debate Donald Trump refused to condemn the White supremacists and interest in the Pride Boy grew days before him. Told the Pride Boys instead “Stand back and stand.”

The group was formed by Vice Media co-founder Gavin McNeese in 2016 and is considered a hate group designated by the civil rights advocacy group Southern Poverty Law Center. “They are known for their anti-Muslim and anti-social rhetoric,” the SPLC notes.
With Taki’s call to action, Twitter users have shared their LGBTQ love.
Toki also tweeted her own love story.
Tia tweeted about the hashtag takeover, ‘We are proud of all the gay people who have come out to reclaim our pride in this campaign.’
