Every time someone brings up veterans during Pride and goes all in about how disgusted they would feel about it I'm thinking about Touko Laaksonen, Mr Tom of Finland himself, who in fact served in the Finnish military during WW2 as you may see

Unfortunately he passed away in 1991 but I believe he would've approved of Pride today if he was still here to tell these morons. Could've made some inspired art, even, who knows!
