Listening to Marek the day after was unreal. I can't count the number of times they complained on the show about how the Provorov issue overshadowed all the great work that JVR and Laughton have done for Pride and how no one is talking about that now. They then proceeded to continue to talk about Provorov for the entire show.
That's not to say it isn't worth talking about, but they could have at least covered the positive side of what the Flyers did as well instead of reducing it to a footnote and complaining about how it's simply a footnote.
Without me, it's only "aweso".

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
This is a great example of what occurs in the real world outside of these forums. Axeman if you read this whole thread has been more on doulos side but even that isn't good enough, so eventually he get's attacked for not being all in. This does more harm to the cause than good.

There is a woke pandemic that is quite troubling because there is no vaccine for it and it has the potential to make some people's lives miserable.
I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
Do you know who's lives are becoming more miserable?
Bigots, racist, misogynists, and unrepentant a$$holes in general.
Can't say I feel too bad about those sections of society feeling the heat rise. If anyone feels more stressed by 'wokeism', they might want to look in the mirror to figure out why. Chances are good they belong in the above list.
Buzzword buzzword buzzword, fake outrage.
The issue most people have with “wokeism” is, those terms are thrown around so loosely.
Someone has a difference of opinion? “Bigot!”
Someone doesn’t actively support a group? “Racist!”
Someone doesn’t wear a pride jersey. “Homophobe!”
Just curious how people get a clear view of your pro-pride t-shirt from way up on that high horse.
You want this to be true, we all do but i dont think those people will get the message. In fact they will find each other and solidify their stance.
This is about changing mentality, a mentality passed on thru generations. Most people dont have the capacity to make these kinds of changes over night or even over a decade, and its harder to do the older one gets. We have to be patient. Negative energy directed towards a minority group is what we are trying to prevent, so we shouldn't be doing it ourselves even though its intended for the greater good.
Look, the only time I care about someone's sexual orientation is if I want to have sex with them. Other than that, I don't give a damn. There is nothing to be proud of when it comes to your sexual preferences. A minority group decides that they feel they need to announce their sexual orientation to the world in a loud fashion and then they and the woke crowd call everyone who doesn't go along a homophobe. That's what I call woke craziness. Provorov did nothing wrong. This is a nonstory yet it's all over the news and here we're talking about it too.
I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
The first sentence in my previous post should give you a strong clue about the answers to your questions.
By the way, same sex bathroom is a weird one. What if didn't support same-sex bathrooms for the reason that women take forever to use the bathroom and I don't want to wait longer than I'm used to?
I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
Anybody who thinks that the purpose of the LGBT movement is to support people who feel the need to announce their sexual orientation to the world in a loud fashion, is either out of touch with the reality of the abhorrent treatment that members of the LGBTQ community have suffered for thousands of years (Largely, at the hands of those in the religious community I might add), or they are insistent on downplaying those atrocities. It makes me sad that people think this is simply about screaming "I'm Gay" to everyone...
