The U.S. Embassy to the Holy See flies a Pride flag at the embassy building in the Vatican during the month of June, prompting online backlash from Catholics. “During the month of June, the [U.S.] celebrates Pride Month. [U.S. in Holy See] stands with the LBGTQI+ community against discrimination and other forms of persecution because of who they are and whom they love,” the embassy tweeted, along with a picture of the flag hanging from the embassy building.
