Fact Check: Angry Mom Allegedly Calls ATEEZ Concert A “Liberal Homosexual Rally”
ATEEZ is known as a safe space for LGBTQIA+ fans, as the members have been openly supportive.

Now, a screenshot of an alleged article from Louisiana’s largest daily newspaper, The Advocate, circulated on X (formerly Twitter). It claimed that an “Angry mom calls ATEEZ concert a ‘liberal homosexual rally.'”

The tweet went viral with over 207.6K views at the time of writing. ATINYs joked that the mom “wasn’t wrong.”
She may be onto something honestly!

Yet, the circulated screenshot is doctored. From our knowledge, a mother did not refer to an ATEEZ concert as such. This screenshot is from a 2006 article about the American rock band Fall Out Boy.
The original poster just replaced one band name with another.
