If you’ve been following recent developments in the never-ending culture war, you’re probably familiar with the fallout over the San Francisco Giants forcing players to wear Pride™ paraphernalia during games.
All high-level professional sports associations, at least the big four, put their players through these humiliating rituals.
But, for whatever reason, it’s historically been the MLB players who are most willing to put their foot down.
As I covered in a recent article at PJ Media, local Bay Area reporters/propagandists subjected Buster Posey, president of baseball operations for the San Francisco Giants, to a brutal struggle session over his players’ superimposition of Bible verses over the Pride™ colors on their hats.
Very tense moment between Buster Posey and the press when questioned about the Giants pride hats and their players.

Comedian Tim Dillon, recently appearing on the Joe Rogan Experience, relayed his bemusement at the Pride™-ificiation of everything and the ostensible counterproductivity of the exercise in terms of fostering greater acceptance of alphabet people:
It makes more people angry. That’s why gay marriage has lost 11 points in support. More people are annoyed… They’re like, why is my bank gay? When did my bank come out as gay?... What are we doing? This doesn’t’ make anybody’s life better. It is just virtue-signaling horse-shit that ends up doing the exact opposite of what they want. They think it increases acceptance. It decreases it. Because you’re shoving a worldview down someone’s throat.
Joe Rogan dies of laughter when openly gay comedian Tim Dillon goes off on the insanity of Pride Month:

DILLON: “Why do the Padres have to wear gay uniforms for Pride Month? That doesn’t make any sense.”
ROGAN: “😂😂😂 What are they wearing? What happens when they play in… https://t.co/2TCvbu8B3n pic.twitter.com/a9hYCi0YtA
Dillon would be correct, of course, if one were to take at face value the premise that the point of this exercise is, in fact, greater popular embrace of the alphabet people and their various sordid proclivities.
Fostering “inclusion” or “acceptance” or whatever isn’t the real goal, however.
Social engineers, forever stoking the flames of the culture war, want the controversy.
They need the pushback.

The predictable friction caused by their increasingly brazen schemes to shove all manner of Social Justice™ dogma down the collective American throat is the bread and butter of their operations; it sustains them.
What would the #Resistance be, after all, without resistance?
Desire’s fundamental structure is that it needs an obstacle. Remove the obstacle, and desire collapses. The worst thing that can happen to you is to get what you want. —Slavoj Žižek, The Sublime Object of Ideology
Purveyors of Pride™ like the Human Rights Campaign need the resistance in the same way that the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), which got caught funding and directing “white supremacists” and is currently being prosecuted for it by Trump's DOJ, needs racism.
In addition to alleged transphobia or whatever being good for “nonprofits” that promote Pride™, in the same way that instances of White Supremacy™, real or manufactured, are a boon for SPLC, these culture war wedge issues also benefit the power structure overall, in that they keep the populace at each other’s throats while the economic pillaging of the middle class continues uninterrupted.

To return to Tim Dillon’s original rhetorical question — “Why is my bank gay?” — that’s why your bank is gay.
