    Corporations supporting pride are canaries in the coalmine. When they stop chirping, you know something is wrong.

    Besides, I don’t like cynicism. Yeah, most big corps don’t give a fuck. And this is what this meme is about. But regular gays work everywhere, and support does make a difference in those places

      I hear you. My reaction to the banks/other massive conglomerates draping colors for whichever things will retain the most customers that day/week/month is the same as the people who wait until the Super Bowl and then show up at work decked out in Eagles gear. It’s sad that it has to be tied to something so fake but the support isn’t exactly going to be turned down.

            Fair viewpoint, but the majority of memes I see are lacking the “make more authentic” part.

            To be honest, I think some of those memes are being made as false flags to discourage corporates from doing pride stuff, some are accelerationists that just want to shit on corpos, and the rest are lefties sick of the kind of support that only comes after the battle has been won.

            I agree with your desire, having more assistance during the strugge, and aiding the struggle in other places, not just “the west”

      Initially I thought Cave Johnson, but the enumeration in the first paragraph seems more of a GLaDOS thing. The rest could go either way. If on the other hand, the enumeration was phrased without “the following regions:”, it would be more Cave Johnson.

      Much more pronounced too. It goes way beyond a few posters and flags. Xmas songs, trees,food etc. It’s on everything all over the place. Pride needs to really up its game to get up to Xmas level.
