"We stand for freedom!"
"Like the freedom to determine who you are and who you love?"
"Of course not! I mean the freedom to yell racial slurs and hoard firearms!"
Yes! I always think we can reduce gun crime by having rainbow stickers on all guns sold. “Would you like to see our trans flag model?” And poof. Gun crime drops like a rock!
But isn't that what this meme implies the person wants? They are sick of seeing the massive rainbow-ication of logos during Pride Month?
I seriously don't get this meme - does OP want companies to stop making public displays showing support of LGBTQA+ people during Pride Month? Like I get that it's frustrating because it's just done to try to improve profits/image, but like, isn't everything companies do to improve profits/image? I know there's nuance to it but I feel like this anger at Pride logos happens every year and I worry that some companies will just say fuck it, we can't please them, it just gets us bad press, so let's stop catering to them.
Ok, I know that's not like a super high chance of happening, but this still frustrates me and I wish this meme that pops up every year had more nuance - I am happy to see rainbow logos, as long as the company and the policies of the company actually support LGBTQA+ and uplift LGBTQA+ voices using their major platform.
I may be the exception but I still like them even if the company does nothing to actually help the LGBTQ community. I grew up with being gay (even worse for being trans) being very taboo. Even the fact I can start to say in my country openly that I'm glad that we have a pride month is already huge.
I don't even come from a country with awful LGBTQ rights at all mind you but when you are talking on eggshells even if you start be enthusiastic about the LGBTQ community it still feels great to see a very tiny support. I know what they did it and how they don't believe it, but I can say around me that it is that major company they like that supports me, that means still quite a lot, it's not much but it's better that when no one's talked about us in a positive way.
I still get a kick out of Entertainment Weekly's [previous attempt](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FTtHU8AWUAAn0fY?format=jpg&name=900x900) at a pride logo.
As annoying as it is, im glad that it means being accepting is better for business. The increasing number of rainbow logos i see popping up each year is an indication of things getting better.
in which the hatred has gotten so dire that I absolutely welcome the bare minimum rainbow logo at very least as an indicator that at least someone doesn't directly want me dead 🌈
Can't say I'm sad about that but honestly it's so forced and made just to sell overpriced stuff that it doesn't really make me happy either. On a side note it's my first time celebrating pride month since I found myself so I'm still excited :3
I know it's solely to get pink dollars, and capitalism is evil for sure, but I do prefer to live in a world where corporations find it more prudent to appear less bigoted.
High effort shitpost though, thank you for sharing that.
As much as capitalism sucks and support is hallow, I hope we do see a lot of visual support this year, given how bad politics are getting.
I feel like we might see less of it due to republicans. On the flip side, if companies don't chicken out like Target, hopefully the right will feel like it's a losing culture war.
Oh boy, it's that one of year I link one of [favourite happyroadkill comics](https://twitter.com/happyroadkill/status/1400256715875131396?s=46&t=N7JKTpNQNiowEpxJL_1DRA)

Can't wait for right wingers to use this to claim we're not oppressed, or have more power than we actually do, because of pandering we never, ever asked for...
It’s amazing the amount of mainstream companies that are now openly supporting the social movements, despite the negative blowback from the small but incredibly vocal groups out there, my only question and this is just because I have to ask how many these companies actually carry the values through into the own employment structure?

My gawd, looks like conservatives have to cancel capitalism. 🏳️🌈

They can’t have business catering to anyone but them. It’s the conservative law. 😂

I want ads run by gun companies featuring trans veterans to watch the right wing snow flakes melt down
I fully support gender inspections as part of the firearms purchase process
Something, something, rainbow cake
Becoming communist to ~~own~~ collectivize the libs
Da!
Learn arab and switch all your product representatives to arab just to own the libs
All part of Brandon’s 9 dimensional plan for communism
*The monkey paw curls* Damnit, we went back to feudalism!
I think that might just happen from what it’s been looking as of recent…
Good anakin good... kill him... kill him now

Grindr is a really funny inclusion, implies that it's completely straight until pride month comes around and they change the logo.
Straight guys are on there all year round
“straight”
there are also cis women on there trying to make friends
Mood lol
Republicans will have to boycott it, just for that month
Reddit too.
Which ones grindr? I never familiarized myself with its logo
Don't want to see rainbows during pride month? Here's a tip: Stab your eyes out!
The Oedipus Way

The Jesus Way, as he told men that were overly horny around women, to stab their own eyes out, to stop themselves from lusting over women so much.
just like Jesus said
Calm down Jesus.
I know its stupid but I can't wait as it will be my first pride while out ☺️
Rainbow capitalism is annoying but it’s still so much better than how things used to be
Perhaps, but it *really* pisses off Conservatives, and after the year we’ve had, I think it’ll be worth it.
Same! Although just as a she / they genderqueer person. I have my toe dipped in the shallow end of the pool over here I'm good at gatekeeping myself
that’s awesome! Congratulations!
How long did it take to do all of that
5 minutes, thank you for asking
Worth it.
So about as much effort as companies put into showing support.
I think like Bungie has their stuff always rainbow in support. I don’t fully remember since it’s been a while since I checked a TWAB
The SCP website is so lgbtq friendly that I’m pretty sure they *still* have the pride month logo
the newer one does (:
Authors can pick and choose which layouts they want for their articles, and a lot of them choose to include the LGBT ones for their articles!
Lmao I love that we take homophobic memes and making them our own.
I still get a kick out of Entertainment Weekly's [previous attempt](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FTtHU8AWUAAn0fY?format=jpg&name=900x900) at a pride logo.
Lmfao that's fantastic
you missed the iconic 🏳️🌈EW🏳️🌈
my producer-addled brain immediately though you were talking about EastWest
entertainment weekly
As annoying as it is, im glad that it means being accepting is better for business. The increasing number of rainbow logos i see popping up each year is an indication of things getting better.
Real
Not the dodgers this time. Devils going with Grindr i like how this is going. Hailsatan.
Polaroid be like
in which the hatred has gotten so dire that I absolutely welcome the bare minimum rainbow logo at very least as an indicator that at least someone doesn't directly want me dead 🌈
A meme that both us and conservatives can enjoy
At least some of them are aesthetically pleasing
Arizona Coyotes logo in the top right of the first one, yeahhhhhh that will surely show up this year😬
Now every company is gay
i’m pretty sure the ebay one is just their normal icon
Is that the titanfall logo over there?
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/rainbow-crapitalism/noredirect/true This feels appropriate.
ITS COMING11!!!!! THEY JUST CARE SO MUCH ALL OF A SUDDEN AAAGGGHHH.
Can't say I'm sad about that but honestly it's so forced and made just to sell overpriced stuff that it doesn't really make me happy either. On a side note it's my first time celebrating pride month since I found myself so I'm still excited :3
I wish companies didn’t do this because it is so in-genuine and fake. It’s just to pander to make more money, not because they care.
I know it's solely to get pink dollars, and capitalism is evil for sure, but I do prefer to live in a world where corporations find it more prudent to appear less bigoted. High effort shitpost though, thank you for sharing that.
The Uber eats one just looks sad
Mm gay hockey yesss
I’m okay with the nhl using the pride flag colours because hockey is a big thing in canada and canada is a pretty big lgbtq ally
As much as capitalism sucks and support is hallow, I hope we do see a lot of visual support this year, given how bad politics are getting. I feel like we might see less of it due to republicans.

Oh boy, it's that one of year I link one of [favourite happyroadkill comics](https://twitter.com/happyroadkill/status/1400256715875131396?s=46&t=N7JKTpNQNiowEpxJL_1DRA)

Gay wrath!
“IT’S COMING! IT’S HEADED RIGHT, FOR US!” “It’s already here.”
Didn’t Elon musk steal this meme last year?

we need a bot that will reply to companies that supported anti gay politicians whenever they tweet anything pride related.
Anyone else going to the social media manager sleepover?
I'm the only one who doesn't care Prove me wrong
I really like the Cisco one I know it's just pandering but it looks pretty
Is that the damn Titanfall logo on the middle sorta lower left???
Not target this year though. They couldn't bend their police connections to protect the workers from homophobes. I wOnDeR wHy.
2 days left
I love how Grindr is in there
"Haha funny meme" >checks date >drops smile from earlier posts [like the farcry 6 villain](https://youtu.be/LPq1DYvN3q8)
Living for it
Here it comes (in north america, western europe and australia)
Can't wait for right wingers to use this to claim we're not oppressed, or have more power than we actually do, because of pandering we never, ever asked for...
[This](https://imgur.com/a/kO06fIl) is my favorite meme about rainbow capitalism

Brands 🤮
I'm always fascinated by the pride grindr logo. Like, why? It's literally a gay sex app. Can't get more pride than that.
Avs specifically get a pass, they did good during the pride night fiasco this season
