Forum Overview :: Motherfucking News :: Re: I'm really hoping this is just a temporary direction

[quote name="Bill from Hoboken"][quote name="skip"]Their old LGBT work focused on censorship of LGBT themes but they're now obsessed with fucking bathrooms and cakes.[/quote] An OUTRAGE that a private bakery wouldn't make absolutely anything someone wanted. Jesus fucking christ, this isn't something vita like a Catholic hospital refusing treatments that their religion rejects. So if ABSOLUTE FREEDOM OF CAKES is high on the ACLU's list, where were they when that person tried to get a Hitler cake made? This shit isn't going to end until heads of companies/institutions grow a spine and realize that the boycott power of special interest groups is insignificant. This isn't the 60s anymore. Al Sharpton calling for a boycott of Imus' station over "nappy headed ho" isn't going to put the slightest dent in the profits of a media empire. Nobody who was seriously considering buying the new Gauntlet game is going to boycott it if the Valkyrie gets her old bikini armor. To paraphrase Patrice O'Neil, "You're going to boycott Pepsi? You're going to be <i>drinking</i> Pepsi at your meeting to boycott me!" These people justify every one of their dumb shitty actions by labeling everything as 60s style segregation the exact same way that chickenhawks justify every dumb shitty war by invoking World War 2. They LONG for a black & white struggle like that because black & white extremes is all their reactionary brains understand.[/quote]
