History & About This Parody:
Calling upon the 13 colonies that considered their identity “American” to join together and conquer their chosen enemies, the Join or Die snake has been used in a variety of US-centric battles since its publishing by Benjamin Franklin. In the legend the art is based on, if the cut pieces of a snake rejoin before sunrise, the snake will come back to life.
With its historically cruel colonialist background, the snake is often used today by authoritative oppression. Fed up of seeing so many harmed, Lydia has turned this symbol against them out of direct defiance.
Choosing to protest using the snake was also partially out of desire for communities to unite against legislative oppression. In-fighting among online minority circles is common, and is a tactic that is often started or encouraged by oppressors to cause their target to become distracted and ultimately stop them from union.
A snake has been replaced with a fierce dragon pinning a cracked crown, specifically referencing the parallel of the American Revolution using the symbol to unify for independence from the British Crown. After the Boston Tea Party, British Parliament introduced Acts meant to punish colonists for disloyalty, directly leading to the American Revolution.
Minorities listed are not in any specific order other than trans being at the head, and phrasing is largely based on Lydia’s personal multi-minority first-hand experience (disabled, autistic, queer, impoverished).
