CW: Offensive homophobic and transphobic tropes.

Leader of the Heritage Party (Nope. Not a clue.) and former London Mayoral candidate David Kurten is probably best known for this anti-mask ‘gotcha’, which went viral at the end of 2020.

The Venn diagram of anti-mask rhetoric and random forms of bigotry is oddly close to a circle, which is why we weren’t surprised to see him tweet this outrageous homophobia and transphobia.

As the Community Note pointed out, it wasn’t even new outrage – and it had been edited as an excuse to ramp it up again.

Just as in 2019, people found his complaint offensive and pathetic. Mostly pathetic.

Yeah, just pick up a different sandwich, there's like 25 different options. Why are you being a little bitch about that one? https://t.co/WM3x4INKV3

Oh come in David. It's April. And the LGBT sandwich controversy was years ago. 2019 to be precise. https://t.co/mmpCyNrDRI https://t.co/Op00sm0U4O

It’s a five year old photo of a sandwich David.

The only one doing the “reminding” here, is just you.

I can’t believe someone doctored a picture of a sandwich just to moan about it. No, wait… yes I can.

It’s true.

I tried to get a Meal Deal at Tesco, only to find they’d turned the self-service tills into a leather bar.

And instead of giving me a receipt, the machine just shouted ‘YAS KWEEN’ on a loop and squirted lube at me until the supervisor came to reset it. https://t.co/Cz3McyImqG
