Edit to add the response as well



I'm probably like most of you in that I do not care who a person chooses to sleep with. What irritates me, and ultimately pushes me against something, is the constant "in your face" push in almost every aspect of life.

This is about the whole country, not one group.

Divisive.

That'll show them, I'm sure the tens of thousands of dead civilians sacrificed to build this stadium will really appreciate the representation.
No one should have to work to survive. Your right to life should not depend solely on your ability to produce capital.

What is so stupid about this is that USA soccer is playing for all Americans, including the LGBT folks. Those people are still Americans and are represented under the red white and blue banner. When you play under the LGBT banner, you are no longer representing all Americans.

If they really cared they would boycott the cup since homosexuality Is illegal in Qatar. But they won't because they don't.

Because it's the Imperial flag. That's why.
The flames of the Imperium burn brightly in the hearts of men repulsed by degenerate modernity. Souls aflame with love of goodness, truth, beauty, justice, and order.

Won't be worn in games.

I mean I think this is as stupid as the rest of you but if you're gonna do this, do it all the way. This is how you know this is 100% virtue signaling.

I will now root for them to lose in every game. They don't represent me. I'm an American.

If you think I am a liberal, you are incorrect. Assume sarcasm on my part. Sorry if something I post has already been posted. Just the way it is!!

This

But Lefty has discovered that you can be the absolute 80s corporate villain all you want as long as you put a pride logo on whatever you're doing to signal the Angel of Cancellation to pass over this house of virtue signaling

So we're in Group B against - England, Iran and Wales.
These Gay + Brown + Black uniforms are idiotic but, it would be pretty funny if they wore these against Iran.

I doubt we'll make it out of group play. Which is unfortunate for the Women's team and their revenue sharing plan.

Like noted above - all virtue signaling. If they truly believed in their "actions", they would boycott World Cup. Instead, virtue signaling with a patch and continue to collect their salaries. Hypocrites.

"One Nation." - except for 90-95% of the population that aren't gay.

Totally logical slogan.

Do they think you can say anything you want there? That's cute.

Do they think you get due process there? That's cute.

If they get Grinered I'm going to laugh my ass off.

Will never understand the lack of respect for this nation's flag (or state flags). This crap should be tolerated. I also disagree with UNT in Denton flying a giant Texas flag but with the colors changed from blue and red to shades of green. And it's a damn State school. Just BS IMO.

This hits the nail on the head along with the title of the thread.

They don't want to take a meaningful stand because its not easy, so they signal they are really concerned about this issue with something meaningless.


Blue stars for you both.
