Not wearing a pride jersey? OK that's ####ty but not a terrible transgression, especially if other players are allowed to wear the rainbow.
I feel like if someone opted out of wearing a pride jersey, my response would be that he's a jerk and I don't care for him. However the social cost would be significantly higher than what I believe is correct. I don't believe the consequences are always comparable to the severity of action.

And even if that’s true, I say #### em. Wearing a pride jersey for 15 minutes during warmups is such a minor and inconsequential inconvenience, even if some bigot has such strong beliefs, just stfu and wear it.
It’s actually kind of pathetic that anyone would try and make such a big deal out of this. It shows what a loser Reimer is. Just wear the jersey you whiny jerk.
