I've seen a lot on people in twitter discussing wether people should do "kinks"(?) in pride because they might scar the children for life and other arguments. Also calling people like the youtuber Big Joel pedos for thinking this is not a huge deal.

What happened? Maybe this is an american thing but since when have kids been brought to pride?

    99% of Twitter discourse can be safely filed under "pay no mind."

    IDK how it is in other countries, but in the US, historically leather was a major part of gay culture, and I'm pretty sure some variation of this argument has been going on since Stonewall -- whether homos should Act Normal for fear of being branded degenerates by hegemonic straightness, or whether pride means pride. Nowadays most American pride parades are corporate sponsored events with nice straight liberals bringing their families to gawk at Alternative Lifestyles, plus on Twitter I'm pretty sure there's a lot of virgins who think being a weirdo in one's line of sight constitutes a violation of consent.
