Apple Celebrates Pride During Parades in San Francisco, New York City, and Toronto

Good for them.

Good? You're okay with people being oppressed and having their freedom taken away?

So you would be OK with a white pride march for white people who have pride in who they are and what they have achieved?

That depends. Is the motivation to celebrate themselves or put others down? Because the white pride (aka KKK) events that I have seen fall into the latter.

There's more than one way to celebrate that. And it only seems odd because society deems it to be wrong. Why is that socially acceptable for gay people to march like that but not straight people to do the same?

Oh lord there’s one in every thread isn’t there. Smh

I wish Apple supported diversity of political opinions and thought as much as they supported equality of marriage.

What about businesses then that skew the opposite direction? Shouldn't they support diversity of political opinions and thoughts as much they support uh... inequality of marriage?

Look there are problems that humanity faces regardless of thought or political opinion -- namely food, clean water, shelter and health. What happens though is that thought and political opinion is too often used to exclude groups or individuals. Diversity, Pride, Resistance, etc wouldn't need to be a thing if everyone could see the humanity in each other and work towards building a more perfect nation. You stand for your beliefs and I'll stand for my beliefs -- But we need to accomplish things that work towards the core problems.

Liberals are perhaps misguided in their desire to control guns -- but the goal there is to increase safety which works towards individual health. Instead of legislation to control guns, then perhaps, work need to be done on why violence happens in the first place. If, instead, you offer nothing to help the matter then don't be surprised when unilateral action is taken to implement gun control, or healthcare, or equality or anything you oppose.

I will be happy when posts like this don't automatically get put in the PRSI forum.

If that were the case, wouldn't it not need reporting?
