MODERATORS
I'm so disappointed in my local Pride this year. I want to vent about it so much, but I would literally dox myself.
I usually carry a flag, but I don't even plan on going out. I feel like it's been entirely claimed by cis straight people who lack any depth of understanding about Pride, let's just put it that way.
Cis and straight people at pride doesn't bother me because we need allies for sure (especially in my locality)
For me it just that most events got pushed to July and a whole bunch still have TBD for their event dates even half way through pride month
It doesn't bother me either, but I feel like this year they've taken control of the events here entirely, and everything is being managed by businesses. Literally everything is paywalled, and there's not even a parade or any outdoor events, and I guarantee that no one will be masking. Can't help but feel they've cut off a big part of the queer community here and that it's turned into an opportunity for monetization. It doesn't feel like Pride, like at all.
