If they don't do it soon ... we're told further action could be taken.

The parade has unsurprisingly been met with scorn and has a lot of folks shaking their damn heads, but here's what Boston native and 'Captain America' star Chris Evans thinks about it.

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the Truth.
Has Chris Evans come out yet?

Wonder why he's so butt hurt.

Actually, what he said is spot on. Also, if people were comfortable in themselves, they wouldn't need to constantly denegrate others for who they're attracted to. It's called projection.

Ironic. For many, most, at one time, the life lived was the statement to who the person was. Now, it is all about making statements in order to be. Betrays a lack of real confidence and substance to just go about the business of being.

Ronald Read, Sylvia Bloom and many others of their kind are my heroes, not those who depend on flaunting societal norms for meaning.

This IS leading their life. It's called letting others know that they're fine with who they are. Even the boring accountant down the street. They're standing up for themselves & others. Why would you have a problem with that?

Who is doing that? This group doesn't want to interfere with gay rights, one of the organizers is gay. It is simply making a political point. The left is constantly pushing against "straight" ness, certain religions, white-ness, maleness, and mocking them for no reason. In this thread you can see it- calling them "boring", and there are memes making fun of WASP sounding names, for no reason other than what they represent - white and straight. It doesn't make sense in such a PC culture that we may mock any groups. Let's just go back to making fun of everyone.

So essentially like Mardi Gras parades have been for decades, except the right wingers only complain if gay people are involved.

It's kinda like having a soup kitchen for rich people but whatevs.


If the straight men want to associate with those who are organizing the parade and in cahoots with the Proud Boys and the like ~ go for it.

The left wants everyone to celebrate culture so why are they being racist about straight men being proud of their culture?

Have your parade, no one really cares. I haven't seen much outrage.

I like Ringo's analogy.

The left fell for what? The OP made a statement, and the link shows nothing of people going "Berserk".

Looks like the right fell for fake news again. Right wing media trying to paint the left as something they are not. I think many on the left think this is childish, useless, and just plain silly, but if people are going berserk, it's the outliers, and even then, the twitter posts in the linked article were funny, but not berserk.


You guys can't be that thin-skinned that someone poking fun at silly attempt of a majority to make themselves the victim has you falling all over yourselves and starting threads to whine about it, can you?

You guys should really take a step back, and see how RIDICULOUS you make yourselves look. The only ones going berserk are you, and it's over something that isn't even happening. LMAO.
