Are you sure it's not the Pinterest algorithm showing you art of lesbians because it thinks you're interested in it?

As for why it might be obnoxious. The artist in question might want to virtue signal to other wokes about how accepting and diverse they are, and/or get attention from straight men who like lesbians. Making incredibly obnoxious art fills out both of those conditions.

It's usually the art from Tumblr where there's this infographic comparing women from different cultures and making those two women lesbians and talk about social issues or crap. It comes off as "Hah. Got you. In your face."

Before I got to my anti-woke phase a few years back, I've already seen and I've already disliked those kinds of posts. My friend proceeds to call my self during that time as homophobic, in hindsight.

Oh those! Yeah I've seen those so many times before, they don't even register anymore. It was good for a laugh the first few times, but now it's just trite. I don't even know what to take from it anymore, that women can be friends no matter the culture? You shouldn't compare different cultures —aka cultural relativism. Lesbians are hot?

At the slightest hint of dislike of "queer"ness. Homophobia, transphobia, racism, ableism, etc etc
