Sin The US is stuck in a cultural war where everything is framed as left vs right, us vs them, you vs me, God vs Satan, "with us or against us". It's not healthy. There's no reasoning or tolerance.
Honestly USA now is so much uncoordinated. The country right in north of USA is better in this aspect, though.
Ines Obviously most disruptive people are on left wing but a lot of normal-people-gays (half nude people parade in the middle of our capital is not normal people) are in left and right parties.
Honestly it's a huge stereotype many homophobic people use as a way to justify their hate.
Pride Parade is more about visibility, and in many Pride Parades around the world it is happening.
My pov? I just view it as some part of their expression for special occasion. It's nothing different with some festivals that participants get half naked there. I myself don't generally like too much exposure, but do they really cause direct harm to me? No. So I'm okay with such occasion.
