Exxon faces "backlash" after banning the flying of BLM/LGBTQ flags at Houston offices

Anyone sick of the LGBTQ idiots yet? They refuse to leave people alone and DEMAND dominance over every space they go.

Exxon Mobil Corp. plans to prohibit the LGBTQ-rights flag from being flown outside its offices during Pride month in June, prompting a furious backlash from Houston-based employees.
quote:
Exxon updated company guidance on what flags can be displayed outside its offices, banning “external position flags” such as PRIDE and Black Lives Matter, according to the policy seen by Bloomberg News. In response, members of Exxon’s PRIDE Houston Chapter are refusing to represent the company at the city’s June 25 Pride celebration, according to an employee group email also seen by Bloomberg.
quote:
“Corporate leadership took exception to a rainbow flag being flown at our facilities” last year, Exxon’s PRIDE Houston employee group wrote in the email Thursday. “PRIDE was informed the justification was centered on the need for the corporation to maintain ‘neutrality.’”
quote:
The dispute comes as employees, investors and customers increasingly push America’s biggest corporations to take stances on social issues such as LGBTQ rights, racial equality and abortion. Walt Disney Co. last month decided to publicly oppose legislation promoted by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis that critics call the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, prompting lawmakers to move to strip the entertainment giant of special self-governance privileges.
quote:
“It is difficult to reconcile how ExxonMobil recognizes the value of promoting our corporation as supportive of the LGBTQ+ community externally (e.g. advertisements, Pride parades, social media posts) but now believes it inappropriate to visibly show support for our LGBTQ+ employees at the workplace,” the workers’ group said in the email.

Hopefully Exxon will stick to their guns. I doubt it though. Almost all big company leaders are cowards.

They're basically just an organized gang. Extort the frick out of corporations.

Frankly, I wouldn't want a bunch of cocksuckers and carpet munchers representing my company.

People have to start speaking up and tell these nutcases NO. Time to start pushing back.

As if you needed any more proof these people don't want equality but rather want power over the entire population so they can terrorize people with impunity.

How did you tell your dad you were gay?

I heard the “L” stands for “Louisianans that had to move to Texas just to find a job”

Wrong. The LGBTQ people are trying to dominate and dictate every area of life. Corporations, children's schools, universities, entertainment. I have a right to not participate in promoting the sex fetishes of other people.

Nobody cares that people are gay in 2022. Go be gay and let businesses focus on making money. Who you like to have sex with should be irrelevant to Exxon

Because y'all deserve all the pushback you get. SJWs deserve to get called out often.
