Congratulations, you have uncovered part of the context of the meme. Can you figure out how the given assertion is making fun of “straight pride” fans, without making fun of gay pride enjoyers?
Reading it back I can see how I might have come off as arguing with the OP. I had just intended to add some context in general around why "straight pride" isn't a generally accepted thing but gay pride is, because whenever this comes up you usually get at least one person asking "what, so we're supposed to be ashamed of being straight now? That's just discrimination in reverse!”

It's always kinda funny to me when someone claims that removing privileges is somehow discrimination
Like no dude, it's pretty much the exact opposite
