And I had a blast. It was fun being with so many cool people. Saw some people walking with a communist Trans flag with a hamsic. Everyone was really loving toward eachother. Got a few cat calls from groups of bears lol.
Anyway, felt good that I was able to do this, just wanted to share π³οΈβππ³οΈβπ
But I was weirded out by companies being in the Pride. I saw a group of people from the company Chemours, who are actively poisoning the water in Belgium and The Netherlands. Proper company queerwashing.
Verizon was at the one I went to, lol. It felt like a big advertisement sometimes, but with hipster food trucks serving 13 dollar sandwiches.
It was ok. It was nice feeling somewhat safe, for a second. For one, Amerika has this little problem with having the most mass shootings on Earth. As soon as I stepped outside of the pride area I got called a "c@@@sucker" by a stranger.
