My issue with corporate pride is twofold.

I hate pinkwashing. Pretending to love the gays for a month of the year is shallow, and when you march down the streets waving rainbow corporate logos, all the wile making bombs to blow up people of color or while selling bombs to queerphobes half the world over is a wild double speak.

I also hate the fact that the pride companies show is often for political capital, and that the company is really just indifferent at best. If all LGBT restrictions were stripped away, the companies marching down the streets of new york wouldn’t risk itself to try and protect the employees at the bottom. It would move on, logos now unchanging.

The point you make about the higher-ups or the corporation itself vs the people who interface with employees is absolutely correct and I think that’s why I have no issues with this, alongside the fact that it is funny as fuck. That shirt seems to have come from someone at the company, not the company itself.
