    The way all these companies have ditched gay rights really clarifies how much of an empty gesture the month of rainbow banners was (and how much of an empty gesture this probably is). But I think I liked it better when they did an empty gesture in support of gay rights rather than against them

      It seems short sighted because the rest of the west isn’t nearly as bad as the USA. Do they really think the American right wing population is THAT worth pandering to that they’d give up their reputation to everyone else?

      Just one of those things. Means nothing about the companies themselves, but means everything about where society in general is at.
