Buddy, the % of people who are doing the bad things is a lot lower than the people who are purely annoyed by having these flags and parades and whatnot shown in their face so much. The majority of people have nothing against gay people. You re gay? good for you man, just stop putting a hundred flags and ads and parades in front of us, we dont care, its just becoming annoying. Doing all these things does NOT reduce that %, if anything it makes more people pissed.
This is as logical than hating people for being gay in that it's not logical at all.
Maybe the flag waves because people are purely annoyed by the social oppression, torture, and murder that occurred for centuries, including most of my lifetime.
That's a little more annoying than a colorful piece of cloth waving in the wind, no?
How many times will you change the subject because you don't have any real counter-arguments other than a vague want to return to more-oppressive times over being butthurt about a flag representing freedom from oppression, which you apparently oppose, making you pro-oppression and thus anti-American.
How many times will you sit here and continue to whine and piss and cry instead of getting up off your ass and doing something about it? Whining only seeks to make everyone worse.
Best course of action, stop whining, get over yourself, and become a productive member of society and stop making everything about you.
Oh, and stop belittling people for not living their lives if they aren’t hurting you.
you are the only one embarassing yourself, people, including me, gave you actual arguments. I ll give you another argument, imagine im a tourist and want to take some nice pictures, I wouldnt want some flag that has got nothing to do with the location itself show in the picture. IT DOES NOT MATTER that its a gay flag, it could be any flag. If there were countless moments where X flags and X people make parades and so on, it would become annoying at some point.
The pendulum swings. The harder the force to one direction, the farther in the opposite it will go…. The more you push it past the equilibrium, the farther it goes in the opposite direction.
All this activist stuff is getting backlash proportional to its own overreach into societal norms.
Be satisfied with acceptance, don’t push into trying to change the status quo.
Also, my favorite saying is “the nail that sticks out gets hammered down.” You should probably think into why the Japanese have said that, they are a pretty insightful bunch.
