      This doesn’t bother me. The gays have won equal rights. Their push for acceptance and parity with straight people has been wildly successful. It’s like if I found out the CEO of a company I love financially supported anti-pet lobbying groups…good luck taking away people’s cats and dogs.

      The only rights gay people might have not won involves adoption, but I feel like thats anti-man more than anything else. Society doesn’t feel comfortable giving a person a child unless there is a woman involved.

          I have some pretty contrarian opinions, at least in the context of Lemmy. I used the pet example because I have a cat. I love my cat, but whether or not the people who make my products love cats doesn’t concern me. They’d need to be in a position to actively harm my cat to justify a boycott.

      Bruh everything is funded by some sort of criminal. Jeffery Epstein could have donated to the Mozilla foundation for all we know. You literally cannot tell.

        That’s a very convenient position that absolves you from any responsibility to do anything. Convenient, but I don’t think correct.

          As u/TBi said in the comments

          People won’t pay for anything, and are then surprised by who actually pays for stuff.
