One of the stores I used to frequent bought in completely to the pride bullshit with multicoloured products, the flags flying high. And they got a whole bunch of "atta boy" praise from local papers and tranny groups.

Of course now that the hysteria has died down, they have already alienated their older customers who now just go to the supermarket for what they used to get from there and the trannies and the gays oddly haven't returned to spend money there. What will they do with all their unsold multi coloured products?

They have already had to let go of two of their staff as they can't afford to pay them.

Go woke - go broke. We weren't welcome there when they were flying their stupid pride flags, what makes them think we'll come back now?

Honestly. I don't know a regular gay or lesbian who gives a single shit about this rainbow vomit. Even the younger ones just want to get on about their lives and leave the faggy stuff to the queers and the trannies, who they'd rather not socialize with.

I remember hearing an interview with a lesbian artist, in which she basically lamented that lgb stuff going mainstream was kind of a let down. The community used to have their own weird little thing going. It was queer, unpopular, and different. Now it's just a commercialized commodity that get shoved down everyone's throats.

Someone figured out it was effective ragebait for political feuds, and they're milking it for all it's worth.

I guarantee she meant trannies but didn't want to say it

I kind of got that impression, too.

Seems like all of us minding our own business is the best thing to do.

The term "woke" has just turned into pejorative for stupidity and kissing the ass of narcissistic trannies and homos in general. idk about anybody else, but I don't want to see flamboyant advertisements on who someone wants to have sex with.

Boycott till they remove all

These things always backfire because they are either 1) performative box checking or 2) bad actors in positions of power within these companies who are more interested in jabbing their fingers in the eyes of people they don’t like. The problem is, those people are their paying customers.

Sure, people are afraid to openly speak their minds out of fear of being accused of one of the various “isms” and “phobias”….but you know what doesn’t get these people cancelled? Simply taking their business and their money elsewhere.

Once you take your customers for granted, they won’t be customers for much longer.
