Hilarious.
And the final (apparently) straw:
And they continue to eat their own.

Boston Pride, the organization that has organized the city’s Pride celebrations for 50 years, has announced it is shutting down.
The dissolution, announced Friday afternoon in a statement on the group’s website, comes after the reportedly all-white board of directors has faced ongoing accusations of ignoring racial minorities and transgender people.

“We have heard the concerns of the QTBIPOC community and others,” the statement continued, referring to queer and trans people of color. “We care too much to stand in the way. Therefore, Boston Pride is dissolving. There will be no further events or programming planned, and the board is taking steps to close down the organization.”
And the final (apparently) straw:
quote:
In 2020, a Boston Pride statement addressing police brutality after the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor reportedly removed any reference to Black Lives Matter, according to New England LGBTQ outlet The Rainbow Times, resulting in 80 percent of the group’s volunteers to quit in protest.
"We wrote in that statement, 'We stand with Black Lives Matter. We stand against police brutality,’” Casey Dooley, former Boston Black Pride chair, told WBUR. "The communications team then gave that letter to the board. The board then proceeded to take out Black Lives Matter and police brutality.”
And they continue to eat their own.

Eventually they will cannibalize themselves. I’m a pretty middle ground guy, but Jesus the far left is insufferable.

What happened to the LGB part? They merged and became Q?

I love when the minority groups start turning on each other.

Did people somehow get mind erased by the Men In Black stick and forget that Boston is just a bunch of drunk Irish people?
