    Amazing that when pressed it’s never “I don’t like acknowledging gay people exist” (the truth), it’s “I just hate corporations doing virtue signaling and pretending to give a crap. Now I have to deal with them shoving politics in my face.”

    But…

    Come Memorial Day/July 4th they love the American flag. Come the winter they even get angry when Jesus/Christmas is not proudly show in storefronts and in ads.

    They are so onboard with celebrating dead soldiers by getting sweet deals on mattresses and trucks, but god forbid a pride symbol show up. Because suddenly they’re cynical consumers who don’t want to be pandered to.

      Pandering to “traditional American values” is okay because that’s what everyone should like. Pandering to anything else is virtue signaling.
