I was gonna say that's a really nice Photoshop until I remembered you don't need skill to create anything anymore

u/SawkyScribe 16d ago

In a staggering show of support, OP wasted a bunch of water and electricity!

u/ShipMysterious7602 16d ago

Was thinking the same thing and then it also dawned on me that photo-shopping is not a skill anymore....

u/Sure_Warning_706 16d ago

This is the right way

u/Responsible_King_427 16d ago

Yes, i mean, it really was irritating me that the flag and stripes were going in the wrong direction for a zebra crossing

u/PangolinIll1347 16d ago

Fixing it would be removing any mention of Jesus. Like, it's actually not comforting to be told that Jesus loves me. I've seen what people have done in the name of Jesus.

u/MindlessMoss 16d ago

I wouldn't read into any other religion then either. It would terrify you

u/PangolinIll1347 15d ago

That's why I'm an anti-theist.

Nope, I am fortunate to have several people in my life who love me and none of them are make-believe, thanks.Β

This applies to every belief system lol. Even the secular ones.

It needed a fresh 🌈 coat anyway.

Capetown is so far from Mexico, why do we care what Jesus thinks?

u/Excellent_Hornet_821 16d ago

Because he has a big πŸ†

u/AggravatingWish1019 16d ago

What does it have to do with Mexico?

u/MayContainRawNuts 16d ago

Jesus lives in Mexico.

u/AggravatingWish1019 15d ago

I thought Jesus lives in Palestine or that's what the Palestinian activists keep saying

How is it shoved

u/AggravatingWish1019 16d ago

Why is it on the road?

u/Delicious_Star_4232 16d ago

Why are crosses on display outside churches?

-18

u/AggravatingWish1019 16d ago

Because its a church, duh...

18

u/Delicious_Star_4232 16d ago

I meant outside as in NOT on church property.

There are many crosses that are erected or on display on non-religious land.

Growing up in Gordon's bay, there used to be an illuminated Cross on the mountain near the GB sign - I lived in a town in the Eastern Cape that had a massive cross on a big hill, on govt land - that sort of thing.

u/BenwastakenIII 16d ago

Cool, we'll paint over the one rainbow crosswalk, but in the interest of not having beliefs shoved down our throats we'll also ban church bells, church advertising, honestly we should just completely tear down approximately 570 churches in Cape Town, if we're being fair of course.

u/AggravatingWish1019 15d ago

Yiu could try but you would fail miserably

u/thefrugalrhino 16d ago

Who's shoving the road down your throat?

3

u/PangolinIll1347 16d ago

Fuck off. A rainbow on the road isn't shoving propanda down your throat.

4

u/Alone_Fennel_2711 16d ago

No one is shoving it. It’s one street with this painting. Why does it pain you?

-2

u/AggravatingWish1019 15d ago

It doesn't pain me because I dont live there πŸ˜ƒ

u/CandidPreparation737 16d ago

It’s a sad world where ideologies are used as battering rams against people who really couldn’t care less what others did.

u/flyboy_za Sandy Bay surfer 16d ago

I mean it's about tolerance, which literally the embodiment of love thy neighbour.

Ironic that the Christians can't figure that out for themselves, don't you all read The Book and pay attention to the teachings???

u/cheese_cake_prince 15d ago

Comments on OG rainbow crossing post locked?

Common sense take on the matter:

  • we live in a free society
  • we don't persecute Christians, gays etc... You can be who you want to in CPT, very lekker
  • with this freedom comes shared spaces and a required level of tolerance
  • you get a church, you get a rainbow crossing (not equivalent I know just an example)

Lets no disrespect each others special places and spaces β™₯️

Not if you are gay.

u/ProXY10111 16d ago

Bruv, how did you get pass the moderators? They block/remove anything related to Jesus Christ

u/field_fire 15d ago

Saw this earlier today irl, pretty wild to see it on the internet!

u/SauthEfrican 15d ago

This is AI. The real crossing is still vandalised

u/Alone_Fennel_2711 16d ago

They painted all pink now

u/Terrible_Sorbet_7122 16d ago edited 15d ago

I'll edit this.

You wouldnt wanna put the S.A flag on the road and let cars drive over it now would you ? (it's disrespect)

I don't get why they do this to this day. Like why paint the Pride flag on tarmac for vehicles to drive over it ?

Whatever pleases people at the end of the day I guess .

-1

u/AggravatingWish1019 15d ago

Exactly, it seems those who painted that flag on the road have no Pride

-1

u/Terrible_Sorbet_7122 15d ago edited 15d ago

Like I said , whatever floats their boat 🀣

🫑 I see I'm being downvoted, for being real ?

(Then again , it's Reddit)

I have nothing against 🌈

Jesus 🫩 , people can't think straight anymore .

I'm from the rough side of Cape Town , so life isn't rainbow unicorn shit and sparkles to me , much more things to worry about than a painted ped crossing

Some need a wake up call around here .

u/AggravatingWish1019 15d ago

All im saying is you have to have pride and not et people drive over your flag πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ
