In regards to the whole gay pride thing, it has become apparent that it was irrecoverably ruined due to the fact regressive leftists have taken over the gay community and drove everyone else out, and also because everyone who started gay pride has gone regressive such as flag designer Gilbert Baker, tainting the popularly accepted symbol of homosexuality with terrorism.
Because of this corruption it is time to end all the gay pride crap, including the parades that now allow exhibitionist streaking and sexual contact.
Remind every aging homo you know that despite surviving AIDS and living in the shadow of stonewall their identity has been stolen from them and sold back in the form of corporate pinkwashing tumblrcore and that their lifestyle is as dead as punk.
Their successors are going to fight and die for gay sex in Ukraine, a country that despises their lifestyle even more.
NEW PRIDE FLAG JUST DROPPED BTW
Oh, trust me, a lot of us know.
It is the inevitable fate of activist groups that they will continue to keep the grift going after their initial stated goals are achieved. The majority who got what they wanted cease to participate in the political activism and just get on with their lives, while the few whose livelihoods depend on continued income from the activism will continue to cling loudly to more and more fringe positions, and eventually derail the entire movement.
Most gay men that I know in my age group have become increasingly embittered and conservative as a result of what's happened to the movement. They know the backlash will not spare them.
Yes, absolutely. There was never anything to be proud of.

A journalist's account of the 2007 Folsom Street Fair by someone who really didn't want to admit that people he didn't like were right (NSFW don't click if you don't want to see blurred photos of gay dudes sucking each other off):
(Though in fairness to the author, his more recent writings suggest he's now a sort of "confused liberal" Tim Pool type)
According to the report children have been in attendance as early as 2005. This all has been going on way longer than we think.
Damn that was an actual fetish event, guess those things should have been banned from the beginning.
I stumbled across it maybe 2-3 years ago and was surprised. They did a really good job of hiding it from all of us.
The fact the journalist was still in favor of this after seeing what he saw was legit the most surprising part of this: I would have thought someone going into this thinking "these fucking right-wingers are always exaggerating shit" being proven wrong in a huge way would have resulted in some major reflection, but it seems to have taken him several years. Still I give him credit for that and based on his more recent writings consider him an honorable man even if I disagree with him.
Zombietime/zomblog had some great photo essays absolutely, they also contributed to pjmedia back in the day. She (i'm working off of 10 year old information I barely recal mind, they tried to remain as anonymous as possible for obvious reasons) has some great other photo essays of all sorts of 'peaceful protests' and sorts from the 2006-2016 era. It was good stuff.
But yeah the folsom street stuff is among the worst. It's more interesting and slightly less grotesque to look at the others.
The fact these stupid fetish events refused to try and get away with it by taking it indoors is a mystery.
No wonder pride accepting kink resulted in them inheriting this bullshit.
And degeneracy such as pedos. What started as a few bad apples rotted the entire batch thanks to Karen and Ken helping by bringing their precious crotch goblins for the pedos to groom. Pedos go wherever the kids are and progressives love inserting themselves in causes they have no reason to be in.
Every insular ideological control freak culty group that gains a certain degree of power seems to want to fuck kids and get away with it what the helllllllllllll
Power attracts pedos.
It's the ultimate taboo, once they can break it with impunity they know they have near absolute power.
It reminds me of the old carlin thing where he discussed it, and the idea of pride being too common. "Pride is something you should feel from accomplishing something. Climb a mountain? Feel some pride. Lose 100lbs? Feel some pride. Being born with something doesn't then mean you should be proud of it."
I've come around to the idea that pride is a sin because it's something that's easy to unnecessarily feel, so if you make it a sin you make sure that people don't feel prideful unless it's really necessary.
You climb Everest for the very first time and justifiably feel a sense of accomplishment, but that tinge in the back of your head tells you "should I really be proud of this?", which keeps you grounded.
I like that idea. A lot of people could really use their own personal 'memento mori' from time to time. The NPCs seem to behave as if they will never die, like they're exempt from the human condition and the laws of thermodynamics, right up until the end.
"Gay pride" was always evil and corrupt. Why were you okay with it before and not now?
The bottoms are going to be butthurt about this, but it's objectively correct and they should be used to it by now anyways.
That was BEFORE the extremist corruption in the community got exposed when they came out as regressive.
Pride seems to be all about degeneracy. I see pics from the parades and I don't see people who love eachother, just people who want to fuck eachother. They dance around scantily clad while corporate virtuesignalers show off their latest rainbow logo. "we support you or whatever, BUY OUR CRAP!".
Over the years I've accepted gays and the like, and have voted to make their rights the same as mine. But FUCK pride, it's doing them no favors.
