Yeah but that only explains a subset of people, the techbros, and not the singular focus on gay pride. And even in tech bro culture you see the weird disconnect where a lot of the space seems BDSM positive (even if they are not in it themselves, or don't get various of the roles (there is an undertone of misogyny in this acceptance but lets not go there)) or polyamory, but they get weird about gay pride (including a few of the Scotts (but only one of 'our' Scotts)).

I don't get why they are so obsessed with getting their own parades. (or just focus on the 'pride' word, while ignoring the context). Must be a Dutch thing why I don't get it, as I think pride parades are pretty normalized here ([rant] even if the rest of the lgbt rights seem to be on a downward trend, esp with the fascism festival our new gov will prob be, supported by one of the biggest fools in politics, the leader of our farmer party who recently said, re the 'all pro gaza protests by students are anti-semetic' moral panic. "I don't get why we just don't put up signs that protesting is illegal, that would fix the problem" (anti-democratic and dumb as well... the leader of the farmers party)[/rant])

Fun detail about Pride parade, when a pride parade was happening during a miners strike, they declared solidarity and the miners joined in on the parade.

E: Live footage from the second grey pride parade (The first had a small group of awkward nerds dressed up their normal clothes), and from other footage I saw, why can't these chuds march properly? It always amazes me. (Same with their 'what if antifa attacks us and we need to go all roman legion on them with our spears(*) and shields?!' training)

*: I assume that is why they all carry flags, to use them as spears, not like the cops will control those flags for being potential weapons anyway. And us cultured people all know that the 'real' roman legions didn't use spears, but swords and pilums.
