Hockey’s Pride Debacle Is Latest Evidence Of Rainbow Mafia’s Disconnect With Reality

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, if YOU are proud of your sexuality then great, but you have no right to make others celebrate it!

It’s time for final thoughts.

It has become the “new normal” in 2023. Businesses, organizations, schools, teams, entertainers, athletes, whatever needs to affix the rainbow to their logo or persona in some way. Even if it has literally zero to do with the purpose or mission of the organization or person or labeled homophobic, transphobic, blah blah blah.

And if anyone is brave enough NOT to join this enforced rainbow crap, YOU have to explain and explain and explain why not.

And here we go again. San Jose Sharks goalie James Reimer announced he will not be donning a rainbow Pride-themed jersey for the team’s “Pride Night” against the New York Islanders, citing his religious beliefs he must keep and be honest said no need to defend or explain!

But because it’s 2023 and we’ve allowed the rainbow mafia to ruthlessly treat much of western civilization, here we are.

Let’s think about how ridiculous that is. James Reimer’s team wants to host a Pride Night for the probably 0.5% of hockey fans who care.

It’s not even June yet. Now sports teams are expected to celebrate the sexual preferences of a minority of Americans or challenge their imaginary phobias year-round for no apparent reason?

And I’m not saying that to be homosexual, by the way. I rightly wonder why a hockey team that plays HOCKEY needs to celebrate some people’s sexual preferences. Don’t you understand how ridiculous this whole charade has become?!

And now we’re in that area where those who choose not to be scolded, nailed to the rainbow and have to make a statement!

I mean, my god, the statement should be, “I PLAY FREAKIN HOCKEY, FOR GOD’S SAKE!”

As Gwen Stefani would say, these are bananas.

This whole forced Pride celebration thing is just too much for me too and it’s actually a contradiction in terms.

PRIDE is a personal thing, it’s a celebration of yourself, your identity, your choices, your being. It is NOT a mechanism to force others to see what YOU like about YOURSELF or about your identity, your sexuality, your life choices. THIS IS ON FREAKIN YOU! You don’t need me and everyone else on planet earth to wear a rainbow to affirm you. That’s a YOU thing!

And I say that as someone who is not anti-gay and doesn’t care who you sleep with or get married to – as long as it’s not a kid!

This is really all so disappointing. The LGBTQ movement used to be about equality and basic rights, but now that the rainbow mafia has hijacked it, it’s about special treatment, forced celebrations and, sadly, child care too! The broader LGBTQ movement has a responsibility to shut up the dirt and I hope they do.
