Best of Corperate Pride Month Items - Gotta get me some of that demographic money, right boys?

[JelloJerk]

Also, I keep forgetting to post this but Apex Legends has a pride badge that you can put on your banner so that your whole team can see you're gay when they load into the lobby.

Overwatch also added in a flag player icon, but it's the original flag and it's only called "Rainbow", proving once and for all that it's the superior hero based shooter. What's funny is that I saw Overwatch catch some heat for this on Twitter (surprise surprise), people talking about how it's not "enough" because other games included like 15 different flags and how dare they just call it rainbow, so I guess it shows that yes, there are people out there that really want and care about that new ugly flag getting put on every brand. They think it's "important" and "empowering".

This is literally homos branding themselves with a badge, kind of like a certain German leader used to do, and a concept that was made fun of 15 years ago...
Part of me wants to laugh at how backwards this shit is, but part of me is kinda sad because now when I go into a game and see someone with that badge I'm automatically thinking "great, this guy is probably gonna be more focused on reporting people for toxicity than playing the actual game". I think differently of them straight away when the whole point was to treat them as equal.

Jesus the Corporate artstyle clashing with the original rainbow colors is a fucking eyesore.

 

[The soyalorian]

Also, these are literally the Super Straight colours (black and orange). Is Oreo lowkey based and redpilled??

Man, as a side thing I love when they fuck up the brown on pride flag to look Super Straight colors.

I think the flag's colors may have come from that error which if that's the case then that's pretty fucking clever.

If June is pride month then why can't erase the whole month? I am tired of sick pandering. I just want to grill with my wife and kids on my backyard for God's sake.

 

[horrorfan89]

Man the Oreo company really fucking loves pride month.

(From a Twitter thread, left out some but they aren't really that important)

It's all pretty goofy and no idea if they are different flavors or in the same pride package, I didn't really look into it.

My first words to a loved one who comes/troons out?


I have no son/daughter, brother/sister, father/mother aunt/uncle or cousin.

Harsh yes, but so is the truth

This makes me wonder, do gay (male) people have a flag? I always see the lesbian flag, the bi flag, the trans flag, and I think that magenta yellow and blue is for pansexuals, but never something that's meant to represent the default butt bandit. Wonder what gives....

You make a good observation, and you'd be correct. Gay men don't have a flag, aside from the rainbow one. To be clear, I'm not complaining about this, because the rainbow flag was made to represent all gay people.

But if you were to get into the logic on why they haven't since developed their own niche and unnecessary flag, it is because SJW-type people are the ones making these flags, and gay men are the "straight white male" of the contemporary SJW LGBTQIA+/alphabet soup movement. As far as the social justice hierarchy is concerned, gay men, especially white gay men, are the Bottom Rung; whereas, for example, further up in the hierarchy you would find the gold standard– trans women of color. While on the outside of these social circles you may hear straight white men being blamed for the source of everything wrong in modern society, inside these groups it is the gay white male that is alleged to cause all the problems.

As for why white gay men have fallen from grace, I would guess that one reason is that it is a combination of

• being too commonplace, unlike a more niche identity such as being trans
• not having enough oppression points, since they don't face misogyny, racism, transphobia, islamophobia, etc.

There actually is a "gay male" pride flag now, which is just a color-shifted version of the "lesbian" pride flag:

Though I doubt any actual gay men give a shit about or were actually involved with creating it. Seems like it was created mostly just to fill a gap in the pride flag menagerie, if anything.

 

[SpumbleSplabloo]

We need a better word to describe this obsession with making flags for everything, one that is more descriptive than simply 'autistic.'

Flaggots.

I'll miss this thread. We should keep posting corporate consoomerism related to gay idpol in here.

There are like 47 other LGBMMORPG-related holidays in a year, so I don't see why not.

I feel like FTMs use this for their "masc4masc" / mlm shit more than actual gay men, but you never know.

Anyway, ready for the clearances on the better-looking-but-unfortunately-timed shit!

You say that like I watch TV.

Man, I know IRL people that have bought rainbow shit and one guy in particular had three or four things on him when I saw him last.

I support all this rainbow corporation products because it means that I know who to avoid and I'm not talking about avoiding non-straight people, it's the Q+ supporting weirdos as they're the target audience for all the paraphernalia. Normal gay, lesbian and bi people just want to be treated as human and I'm happy to do so.

Support the LGB cuz they need it.

One of my personal lolcows says the acronym as "QTIABLG+" to presumably put the queer and trans first as they are the "most marginalized".

Yes, this is from a white male who felt too bad about his white maleness so he trooned out.

Y'know what this reminds me of?



I guess that team has been supporting gay men for over 30 years. Bless them.

Someone more witty than me might also try to make the joke that they were one of the first trans-species teams in US sports since they changed to the Bobcats in the early 2000's (and detransitioned back to Hornets in 2015).

The bobcat does look a bit mentally challenged, which goes well with trooning out.

To keep my post in line with the thread, here is what the Charlotte Hornets do outside of Pride Month:

 

[Second-Hand Boat Supplies]

Everyone's favorite progressive bastion: The Pinkerton Detective Agency. You can hire them to mow down striking coal miners, but they wouldn't dare misgender anyone

 

[Kaktus Kompot]

Man, remember when oreo posting a gay cookie picture in 2012 was considered highly controversial? Nine years sure have passed quickly, didn't they?

 

[Quiet Guy]

Wake me up when it’s Sloth Month.

...Wouldn't that be the month when you would stay asleep?

 

[NoReturn]

Those regular rainbow Oreos though kinda look good...

Bad Scrumption! Spit it out! Those are not food! Drop it. Drooop it.

 

[WhatInTheActualFuck]

Goddamn, I love cynical corporate pride shit. It treats the topic with the seriousness it deserves.
