This. I'm in fukking Chicago where Pride is HUGE and sure enough, the only people "noticing it being aggressive" are the ones with problems with gay people. Its literally all the same except a fukking microscope being put on LGBTQ people thanks to Republicans. Thats an awfully reductive take but also 100% why the visibility seems higher.
Maaan, in Chicago it's Pride year round. I live just above Lakeview and it's 365 rainbow 🌈 party in Lakeview.

I'm aware of it, but what they do don't effect me so it is what it is.

My boss is an older cac and he’s homophobic AF fukk among other things. I’ve been enjoying watching him suffer. Nobody in my work environment says anything about gays and lesbians but him. With that said, he probably has pent up gay feelings he’s been battling.

Dallas, Texas but living in Houston, Texas
I went inside a store and the cashier area had rainbow flags

Why doesn't Juneteenth get this love from these corporations? Black history month?

All we get is cac half-smiles, uncomfortable race-blind dialogue and KFC from cac coworkers
:unimpressed:
I prefer Juneteenth to NOT get love from corporations except giving employees holiday pay if they have to work or the office being closed like they do for Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Christmas, etc with pay.

I don't like the fact that these crackers have commercialized the holiday.

If I was still in western Massachusetts then yes pride would be bigger than BHM because of demographics. But that’s not true in the south.

And I thought we tired of the corporate pandering, McDonald’s putting kente designs on its bags and shyt

I believe BHM and Juneteenth don't get as much publicity/love is due to the fact that the cac executives and leadership have Alphabet folks within their own families. Plus, its a money grab.:wow:

When pride stopped being just a parade in Manhattan and corporate Sponcers took over downtown Brooklyn with ant Harlem advertising and events I knew it was a wrap

It’s the same as it’s been the last 10 or so years. The right wing has absolutely no substance to run on so they just lean heavy into the culture war bullshyt, heavily politicize and promote it, and you fakkit ass retards lap it up.
Why do you dummies try to tie everything to republicans? People who aren’t republicans Sargent fans of this pride stuff. fukk a republican. You seem to think people can’t have an opinion without them being involved.
