A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Both a leftie and rightie story. Less pride-washing!

That is because they care about profit over pride. They misjudged and thought pride would bring in more profits.

Who downvoted you? Of course they only care about profits! They're soulless corporations who seek nothing other than increasing the bottom line. If it's profitable to promote gay pride, then they will. If it's not profitable, then they won't. It's that simple.

Bingo. There are companies that care about gay people, they don’t just try to market it. They do it in action and not just for dollars.

If we just set aside our differences for one voting cycle and vote according to issues like this that span the entire political spectrum we might be able to get some shit done.

Bud Light is the #1 US beer again.

The NFL is experiencing its highest ratings ever and record attendance.

"Go woke, go broke" is a proven myth.

Not sure a beer that was giving away their product, and distanced themselves from pride is a good counter example to go woke go broke.

"Pride" is treated as a brand by companies that look to cash in.
