      Pride month is when tons of companies would performatively boast about how much they support pride, but with der fuhrer in the office, they’re not even going to put on the performance. Especially after Target pulled all public support because they faced a bit of backlash, and that was before the bullshit that’s happened in the last year.

      Loud, fake, performative, greedy support is manipulative and steals momentum and direction

      I don’t agree 100% with that, but I think that’s a good place to start.

        Exactly. See what it did to Christmas? Now everyone celebrates, not just Christians.
