Lesson: don't let BLM protest for black gay rights amongst the community.
You'll upset the straight white people?
Isn't it telling that you guys are upset and not the people that actually invited them to the parade? It doesn't give you the faintest clue? The fact that in the article BLM garnered a lot of support amongst gay rights activists?
Hey everyone, we upset Corsi. He used swear words. Let's await his final word on what Pride is supposed to be about.
It basically just goes to show that a portion of the people involved in it really have zero concept of it at all. It's origins are meaningless. It's just a "family friendly community parade!" The BLM movement took issue with the way the racially marginalised groups are treated amongst the queer community. That is a REAL problem. What do any of you know about it?
It's basically a reason I don't go to Pride parades. They are often meaningless. This one had meaning, and surprise, it upset a bunch of straight white people. Shocker.
