Like last year they kept the rainbow flag profile pics up for the entire year. Now they aren’t doing it because they are fearful of some lumpenproletariat boycott. Reactionary workers are worse than pro-lgbt bourgeoisie. I’m gonna side with whoever respects the rights of trans people to literally exist and if neither are gonna do that then fuck both of them!

    So I don't have much personal knowledge about any of this (older cis white dude, here - sorry). But this was my first thought: social conservatives refresh their Ninja blenders every 3 months - of course they're going to dominate the consumer space.

    The customer is always right.

      Usually though the companies are happy to eat the backlash because conservatives aren't principled enough even to change treat habits. See all the attempted "boycotts" on Nike, Gillette, and so on.
