Is this pushing an ideology?

This is the worst of ideologies; it's made kids on the left emotionally weak. You have to face adversity to get stronger.
You mean face intolerance to get stronger?

Republicans have to face intolerance all the time, and you don't see them destroying property or acting foolishly. When you don't like what you hear, and you hide in your safe space, then the cancel culture begins. Look at all the intolerance from the left with Musk.

There is an easy solution to that - do not advertise your political leanings to the world. For example in the EU, politics, religion etc are seen as private things and I have actually no idea whom my colleagues or friends vote for. It is quite rare to know that, it happens mostly inside families or among the closest friends, only.

Doesn't matter to Republicans and this independent because my ears aren't sensitive to speech to where we shut people up or, like the EU, create laws to shut people up.

You do not know much about the EU, do you?

The rainbow motif has been adopted by the LGBT movement and will have an inherent association with it for a long time, especially when accompanied by specific messaging.

To that end, yes, I imagine many will take fault, just as many would take fault with inherently Christian or any other faith’s messaging appearing on things.

Typically, the safe spaces are only safe for liberals. Diversity of thought is not welcomed, accepted, or tolerated. And people with opposing ideologies are targeted for retribution either by being "cancelled", denied their right to work, or are physically accosted, etc. So, the slogans are not what they seem. The real motive behind them is achieve uniformity of thought and action, and punishment for not complying is a feature (not a bug) of the ideology.

Maybe you don't notice it because you are biased toward it. This is way before Vance told you guys about it, but many believe it. Toddler Kicked Out Of Daycare For Being Transphobic
Your source for "so many jailed for free speech in the EU" is something about a toddler in the UK? Well, this is embarrassing, is it not? It is like me claiming something massive about the USA and then posting some absurd case from Canada as my source. Come on, Laodicean.

Nope, the toddler wasn't jailed, but your speech patrol somehow figured out a toddler was transphobic and kicked him out of daycare. In the name of "hate" speech, you don't have to play ignorant unless you don't watch your news.

Calling homosexuality a sin wouldn't go over very well in the EU, would it?

Wait, you do not even know that the UK is not in the EU? I thought my example with the USA and Canada was quite clear and that you just made a mistake, but you are still continuing with it...

I am still waiting for the number and the source of those massively jailed people in the EU for free speech, whatever you mean by that. Please, focus on that claim and leave this toddler vs daycare nonsense out of that.

In my few experiences with so called "safe spaces" I found some this to be quite true. I am not a liberal, nor am I a conservative. Liberal have not tried to "cancel" me, or if they did I was unaware of their efforts. No liberal has ever tried to physically accost me. The only time someone tried to get physically violent with me it was attempted by a conservative Christian.

In my own experiences I've found both liberals and conservatives to be intolerant and hostile, but I am going off topic.

I would say the images posted by the OP are pushing an agenda/ideology. Then again, so are signs outside of churches, synagogues, mosques, etc. I don't have any issues with that. In the US (at last for the moment) that is Freedom of Expression (and in the case I listed also Freedom of Religion). I can agree, disagree, find it amusing, find it stupid, find it insulting, etc., but my views/feelings are not really relevant as they should have no bearing or impact on anyone's freedoms of expression and religion.
