Yeah, but if progressives pivoted off Pride, conservatives would pick another topic that they absolutely can't let go. Racial segregation, slavery, you name it.
The point is that regressive are on the attack as their base coalesces easier, so they pick the topic. The only recourse would be better education, guess why that's under attack as well.
It's a vicious cycle of corporate media (that includes "liberal" stuff as well), paid for politicians and uneducated voters. I need someone smarter than me to figure out a way to break it without violence.
