Of all the many uses for confetti showering award show winners, stuffing envelopes, jazzing up nail polish subverting homophobic propaganda may be the most creative and powerful one we've seen to date.
In the run-up to Ireland's May 22 marriage equality referendum (citizens will vote on whether or not to legalize same-sex marriage within the country), opponents have been distributing anti-LGBT leaflets in an attempt to win support from voters.
Containing unfounded statements suggesting that gay people "contract cancers earlier in life" and that children adopted by same-sex couples are "50 times more likely to die of injuries inflicted on them," many of the pamphlets have upset the people they've been given to in Dublin.
Some on Twitter are destroying the anti-gay leaflets they receive, but Irish paper company Daintree had a better idea create confetti out of them to be used at gay weddings.
