You forgot the part where corporations pretend to care by painting a rainbow label on their product for 1 month in hopes of boosting sales.

once the activists got what they wanted they turned around and complained about "pinkwashing" and megacorps only caring about rainbow shit for a token 30 days (I mean, that's TRUE, but it should come from someone who unleashed the righteous howling mob on anybody else who pointed it out before they did)

same thing happened with the Land o'Lakes Lass and yeeting IASIP and 30 Rock episodes--"okay, so according to your 'pyramid of hate' model we've cut off the problem at its root and this'll have measurable effects, as you've been claiming for half a century, right? you're not gonna be back here in a week with a NEW set of urgent, non-negotiable demands, right? 'cos that'll get tiresome real fast and people will start asking if this is all just a distraction from actually getting anything done"; they're turning on The Discourse over The Little Mermaid--"why isn't this Totally Original movie about the 18th century dealing directly with slavery?!" vs. "dammit, can't you see a Black character without thinking about them picking cotton?!"
