These two collective societies seem to always demand special treatment and attention, which I abhor.

Other minorities get into it and soon they get out again. They see it is a tool; blacks and gays see it as a final destination (except the cool ones of course which are as annoyed with this shite as we are).

Media loves to make it a bigger deal than it really is. I would hardly call a small minority of people as "furious".

Why does any company need to fly a flag denoting its employee's sexual preferences? Jesus. This country has gone full retard.

The correct response to this situation is always to ignore them and they will move on to their next target in 3 days.

Sounds like they are being inclusive by not flying any politically charged flag?

Did Exxon announce they wouldn't hire gay people?

This is interesting because the Baton Rouge Exxon plants were strong armed into flying the flags last year at the plants by HR ID

They were flying all flags though and not just one group.

Holding a business or company hostage to cater to your desire for special treatment isn’t inclusivity. frick the progressives idea of being inclusive.

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



YES, and the fact that many bend their knee to fall in line and champion them is sickening since we all know that it’s done out of pure FEAR of being cancelled themselves. So, TBH, when I see those flags, all I attribute to them is cowardice. Good for Exxon for standing up to the woke bullies and their collective horde.

I can't think of a single reason for a company to fly the flag of perversion.
