Poll of the Day > How do you feel about advertisers and companies using lgbtq community

(+) Yeah! (+)

In advertisements and Arvs not talking about using Arvs talking about using. And knowing theres nothing anyone can do about it else youd be a homophone

I think it's fine if you're talking about what I think you're talking about...
---

Could you try that again in English

---

Using lgbtq community for the sole purpose of collecting a dollar

---

Unless everyones going to be in denial about it

---

It's very obviously a thinly-veiled effort to cash in on current cultural trends, but it's usually obvious enough that it's unlikely to cause any harm, and it does help to normalize homosexuality et al, which is handy. Overall, I'd say I'm fairly neutral. It's easy to be cynical about it (as is so often the case when capitalism is involved), but it's generally not hurting anyone, so meh.

Corporations don't give a shit about anything that doesn't make them money. If they thought being pro LGBTQ or BLM would tank their sales they wouldn't do it.

---

It's good, in the overall, that they're doing it.
I have a feeling it's meant to be edgy, but, if you have large scale corporations are thinking that LGBTQ+ is on the right side of history, that's gotta be a good knocking point.

I do think it's weird that we look for corporations for morality guidelines, but, what else you gonna do?

What would you want to "do about it"?

If the company actually employs/supports LGBTQ2 people, cool. If not, it's performative and dumb.

Though based on your use of words in the title, you have a predetermined opinion on this.

Arv doesnt approve of the exploitation for money nor does he care about exploitation in general

---

but what if there's no exploitation
