The new moral majority is pro-gay rather than anti-gay. It consists of the political class, the capitalist class, the media class and the celebrity class. Its flag is the Pride flag. Its branding and messaging are inescapable. If you're a truly virtuous person, you'll even wear the new moral majority's political paraphernalia, in the form of a Pride badge, a Pride t-shirt, or Pride socks on the actual TV news (Mr Snow). Doing so is a way of letting everyone know you're a good person. You're on the right side of virtue and the right side of history. You are an insider.

I think pride has always been pride, I think corporations saw it as a way to make money on gays and that's when it got mainstream. Now they're losing money so it'll probably back off.

All they care about is money.

For a politics board, you guys spend a tremendous amount of time getting bent out of shape about sexuality. Who cares? It's a strange obsession.

Yeah, because everybody on your team likes to keep their sexuality to themselves.

You going to the big parade?

Yeah when it's blast in our faces all the time from every angle, we can't ever get away from it and it is against our faith, we should stop being so obsessive about it.

This sums up exactly how I feel about pride month.

Thats cute. Stay naive. You really think Ford said "we'll sell more F-150s by branding gay than we did with bikini models!"

Nah. The VAST majority of the movement is astroturf. Through and through. Banks & other megacorps realized they could deflect public anger by paying lip service to social responsibility. This set twitter expectations so others were fooled that support for sexual deviancy was a public desire. And now non-participants are being blackmailed into it for access to credit.

Does the gay-150 exhaust have a lisp?!

It's the current cause du jour that the left is using to kill society. Before this it was racism, then it was the me too movement, before that it was occupy Wall Street, before that it was "fighting Islamophobia"

It's not about the sexuality. It's about the forced cultural takeover.

It's PRIDE month. You and yours obviously care a whole lot since you designated an entire month to celebrate degeneracy. We are just responding to you and yours making a huge deal of perversion.

I'm sick of pride because it's immoral, wrong, and rotting out culture from the inside. Pride goeth before destruction…

What yall need to understand is that these corporations are playing by different rules and already being governed by esg.

They must participate in these lgbtq, climate change, blm and so forth to enhance their esg scores.

Same with hospitals. They will get bad grades if they don't perform gender care or affirm gender theory.

Quote:
The answer is simple: The rise of environmental, social, and corporate governance as the dominant strain of "stakeholder capitalism" has incentivized corporations to curry favor with ESG rating firms , even if it means alienating their consumers.


Quote:
On Friday, USA Today published a leaked letter showing the Human Rights Campaign had informed Anheuser-Busch "that it has suspended its Corporate Equality Index score a tool that scores companies on their policies for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer employees."

"Anheuser-Busch had a key moment to really stand up and demonstrate the importance of their values of diversity, equity, and inclusion and their response really fell short," said Eric Bloem, HRC's senior director.


Quote:
This is a great deal for the ESG puppeteers. They can make multi-billion corporations move by the mere threat of a bad score, which gives them immense economic and political power.


Quote:
One can almost feel bad for Bud Light. The brand is caught in the middle of a larger war being fought by global anti-capitalists and the bosses of capitalism: consumers. Publicly traded companies should be allowed to go back to serving their real bosses consumers which is why the rotten ESG model should be dismantled.

https://www.dallasnews.com/news/2022/02/10/lgbtq-rights-group-suspends-dallas-hospitals-from-equality-index-after-cuts-to-transgender-care/

Quote:
"The decisions that have been made regarding the provision of medical care for transgender and gender-diverse youth put the lives of young people at risk and require us to take action with regard to both Children's Medical Center Dallas and UT Southwestern's Healthcare Equality Index status," said Jay Brown, HRC Foundation senior vice president for programs, research and training.



In summary, big ESG, if you will, has cornered the market on corporate influence and big corporations now secondarily consider their clients. Until corporations consumers demand more, corporations will be continue to bend the knee to whatever social issues esg demands.

1. The Left force feeds America a disproportionate dose of it's idiotic cultural ideology.
2. America responds, asking for it to be toned down.
3. The Left accuses America of being haters or being obsessed.
4. Weary America caves in to the indoctrination.
5. The Left moves on to the next preposterous campaign.
6. Rinse. Repeat.
Until...The Left achieves it's goal: American culture is destroyed.

China, Russia, and the rest appreciate your "useful idiot" contribution to their plans.

It's reached the point now where the average person is fed up with this BS.

Don't care about advertising about your sexuality then get rid of the month celebrating it. Otherwise don't be offended when people give you blowback about it.

While I'm typing my last post, I'm listening to the Astros radio broadcast on my smart tv using the MLBtv app. my tv launched a cartoon cityscape Screensaver. I glance over at it to see a billboard in the cityscape promoting "Pride", replete with cartoon rainbow flags...

I swear to god we're living out a George Orwell novel.

Some day maybe you'll be able to think for yourself. Until then, you'll just feel what they tell you to feel.

Take your kids to a pride parade they say.

Look how they glorify weed on flags

Very odd

Pride is a sin. Sodomy is a sin. Perfectly predictable that people would double down with one sin on top of another.

When did Uncle Fester go homo?

I was a fan when it was about tolerance and live and let live. Some have moved it way beyond that.

I also used to like watching social conservatives lose their **** over it. Too funny.

It's gone from "I like dudes and shouldn't be beat up for it", to "I like dudes and will force your kids to love it and possibly convince them they're the wrong sex as well including cutting off their genitals"

I think there are far more reasonable gays and straights who celebrate pride the way it was intended to be. I really do think the pro-trans for children movement is substantially smaller than most think.
