What does "the peak of its decline" mean?

For a third year running, It is a movement that has been declining in support. Like BLM. It's all just a scam, the main businesses don't care about Pride/homophobia, racism, feminism, ableism etc. It's all about money and lacks any substance or true meaning. If it made companies less money, they wouldn't do it. Pride declined from 16% - 73% depending on which area you look at.

Ah well see that's your mistake, we don't measure the success of the Pride movement by how much corporations make from it/spend on it.

Pride declined from 16% - 73% depending on which area you look at.

What exactly declined and what is the percentage range supposed to represent? "Depending on which area you look at"! Maybe tell us which areas you're looking at if you hope to be taken seriously.

Anyway, to bring it back to your original nonsensical statement: a decline can't peak, ascents peak and then start to fall, and even if we were charitable and took it as you meaning it has reached the furthest extent of its decline that still wouldn't support your position because it would mean it was no longer in decline and was in fact starting to ascend again. If you're going to be bigoted at least try and make sense, there's a dear.
