    Every time a straight person has wondered why I hate rainbow capitalism, shit like this is why.

    “Oh but it moves your kind forward, you should be thankful they support you now!” They only supported us when the government wouldn’t take away contracts and people were sure they supported queers.

    Same thing for every other company and every other minority. I can at least mask that I’m queer, black people can’t mask being black.

    God I hate being right about horrible things.

        Did I say something stupid? I wrote this 10 minutes after waking up and not had coffee.

        I am a white dude who happens to be a disabled queer, I try to include the fact they are targeted more for something they can’t hide, I can mask the things that other me.

        If there’s something I can swap around or edit, lemme know.

          It was sarcasm… Corpo spent years pretending to be an ally and then just like that… No longer an ally

          I can’t say if it was bad sarcasm or plain stupidity, but I for one understood and totally agree with your first statement.
