I have always detested and abhorred how companies use Big Happy Rainbows as a way to somehow atone for their prior homophobia and transphobia decades ago.
Slapping vivid colors onto your product for June is not (and will never be) ''support'' or ''acceptance''. You are using Pride as your marketing tool; as a way to reel in more money. These companies do not genuinely and authentically care about supporting this community. They only care about getting more cash from a wider demographic.
What makes me even angrier is how most of them don't even... do anything. All they do is masquerade as Inclusive and Diversive while all they're doing is mindlessly brandishing rainbow flags. They don't ''uplift LGBTQIA+'' voices (and if they miraculously do, they typically ignore the TQIA+).

its called rainbow capitalism, these ass corporations often market to minorities without addressing material issues like many companies celebrate Pride Month or support diversity campaigns Like BLM while simultaneously opposing unions, paying low wages, or lobbying against worker protections. What I'm basically saying is they sprinkle in representation but continue to use the same economics that oppress marginalized groups (which what all liberals and US leftists are for) ^_^
