Just a clarification that this video is about corporations pandering during Pride Month and dropping support as soon as the month is over. This is not about Pride Month itself 🏳️🌈😎
And to think some people can't even handle the profit-seeking pandering for 1 month but are oblivious to the various other pandering strategies for the rest of the year...
@@BremendHonestly, I just wish the hate for LGBT stopped, there may be flaws that should also be fixed currently, but still, it's just more bad than it was 5 years ago.
My cousin just got laid off, and we know it’s because they’re outsourcing the jobs, but I kind of want to send this to him and say “sorry you were just a bi diversity hire” 😂
We used to say at our company that every employee photographed or videotaped to show company diversity to the public leaves either by their own accord or is let go within months. It was like a curse.
I remember back in 2022, there was a city that painted the white walking lines on roads as a rainbow pattern, only to remove it ONE MINUTE after Pride Month.
Having my birthday be the first day after Queer Pride Month is a bit awkward as a lesbian. However, it does mean I get to kick off my birthday with Queer Wrath Month!
It is also relative. People have always invented divisions long before and after any discussion of LGBT stuff. Religions small divisions in ethnic groups classes, neighboring countries just endless finger pointing when often outside observers couldn't ever sort the opposing parties apart
I am gay and trans and once asked my dad why the company he owns doesn't do anything for pride month. He said: "If you can't do it all year round you shouldn't do it at all." Telling me that he's accepting and proud of the LGBTQ+ community (we often sell shoes to drag queens too!) while simultaneously dunking on companies who pander. :)
Remember. Every huge, multi-billion dollar corporation behaves much like Hobby Lobby. We really don't like any of you. But we're willing to keep up appearances so you'll hopefully buy our balsa bullshit while under an alcoholic influence.
"Back in my day, Pride Month was when you showed strength and pride in yourself, not gender." "Uh, sir? Pride Month didn't exist back then." "You look Chinese."
Pretty much why I've been avoiding coming out as trans at work. They parade you around like a circus act for a month then continue to treat you like shit the rest of the year
Pride is for LGBT people to celebrate who they are, look back at how far we've come, and recognize there's still lots to do. Corporations don't give a crap about any of that and see us a marketing piece. To them we're just another source of income and it sucks
It's almost like corporations shouldn't participate in any monthly celebrations and just focus on whatever it is they're doing to make money, then no one's offended.
@@emilyz4104 Where'd the phone in your hand come from, Emily? A corporation waiting to make money. You spent money, yet you also got something you wanted. It's a win win and that's capitalism.
@@TamCloncey That's commerce, not capitalism. I'm willing to bet you don't actually know the definition of capitalism. Also, I'm willing to bet you don't know the definition of corporation. Also, I wasn't saying that I'm against all corporations; I'm saying that people are certainly against many corporations.
See, I feel like we bullied corporations so much they don't even try anymore. Maybe irl in progressive countries it's easier to see all the pride kitsch but I swear this month I didn't even see any logo turn rainbow or release enema burgers or something.
Just to help ya out, no, you aren’t called igotedB for saying this month is pandering. You get called igotedB for saying there’s no point in having a pride month (or similar sentiments)
Yeah, I'mma go ahead and call you a liar. Cause, see, us queer people complain about corporate Pride a lot. So maybe, just maybe, if you're getting called a bigot, it's because you're saying that stuff in a way that makes it clear that you're a bigot.

Right....let's see what you say on July 1st.
It's sad that you have to give some people a "heads up" on comedy.....which is gold, by the way.

@@homeofthegooddeal It's also for the mfs that think that he's pandering to one side.
Yea but Pride month is shit anyway so idk
Not the sashay away 🤣🤣🤣
"see ya next year" 😂😂
The constant watch checking LOL
I was waiting for "Gobbless"

Do it
@@OhSkyeLanta a *biversity* hire

That wheels turning then saying probably is the closest thing to any kind self awareness you will see from these people 😂

So much Michael Scott energy in it 😂
What's actually more insane, is how people feed into this and buy it.
I remember back in 2022, there was a city that painted the white walking lines on roads as a rainbow pattern, only to remove it ONE MINUTE after Pride Month.
"Remember kids. Corporations are mot your friends but rather want to enslave and suck you dry by any means possible"
I won't be able to sleep at night knowing that minute was just 50 seconds!
I mean the conversation could have started 10 seconds past 4:59
Lol it honestly felt like longer than a minute while the corporate boomer was talking, but when I checked the time it was only at like 45 seconds
Omg I felt that tho xD
“Corporate mumbling”
That’s ok. He can just charge a lot for a single month. Executives do it.
“…yikes” 😂
Having my birthday be the first day after Queer Pride Month is a bit awkward as a lesbian. However, it does mean I get to kick off my birthday with Queer Wrath Month!
My friends were joking about Gay Wrath Month lol-
Belated happy birthday! 🎉
They're gay for profits
The ole "gay for pay".

Longest minute of his life
Just dropping by so I can read a thoughtful, nuanced discussion in the comments section
😂😂
This comment.... terribly offensive
As corporate would say, gobbless
No way! Company founder and CEO Alan Purcell?
just sounds like a summer job to me
This was hilarious! 😂😂😂😂.
"hm....yikes.." 😂
Diversity is not a good thing.
Diversity is not a bad thing.
Diversity is a thing. It neither adds nor subtracts from the quality of a thing.
replace "diversity" in your head with "supporting and tolerating diversity"
For some things, like biodiversity, this may be untrue.
It is also relative. People have always invented divisions long before and after any discussion of LGBT stuff. Religions small divisions in ethnic groups classes, neighboring countries just endless finger pointing when often outside observers couldn't ever sort the opposing parties apart

Real.
If papaw heard what your boss said, he’d call him a Polish and all the slurs he knows. 😂
When February hits, they be like “well at least we only have to deal with them folks for 28 days. Crap, it’s a leap year.”
I love all the supportive and lgbt commenters down here. Its beautiful. SPREAAAAD MY PEOPLE
Corporate mumbling xD
"Why did you rebrand your products with pride symbols?"
"Hello, I like money."
"What made you post pro-LGBT content on the internet?"
"Money!"
Yeah, that's corps in general
gobbless
so THIS is why im not getting hired at walmart...
Time to find a bunch of boomers in the comment section 👁️👁️
"Back in my day, Pride Month was when you showed strength and pride in yourself, not gender."

On the bright side, he at least has a reliable source of employment for one month out of the year.
Tom Segura energy without the pretentiousness
Well these days I'll take even corporate crumbs in a sea of rising christofascism
"ohokay"
As a fan of yours and you being a comedian I hope you don't find people irl that say this as offensive.
*corporate mumbling*
If my birthday was in June, I would change my identity and bump it to July. Just so I didn't have to celebrate during pride month
Not a real son a gay son😅😅😅
Nobody said much about it at work
Longest minute of my life.
Lmao that was funny
I feel seen I feel heard

WTF are "enema burgers"?! 😨
This year i was happy to see no pride month commercials made TV normal for once
Wait Jerrod is gay?
That's why I'm here, idk, is he?
"See ya next year, I'm praying your gay away for you."
Only a slight exaggeration lool
One month too long.
Oh no, not the DEI hires. What will they ever do without them?
all this homosexual stuff....why can't we use that word anymore ?
Oof, diversity hires for the sake of diversity 😅
Wait you're saying they only about money??? Damn it's almost like we've been saying this forever and got called bigots for it 🤨🤯

@kingofgrim4761 I'm happy you've never had it happen to you princess.
@emilyz4104 don't care 🤷🏻♂️ it's pandering and pandering is bad.

why even have pride month in the first place
If you don't know, you don't know. Go read something. Anything. Jumpin Jeezus on a pogo stick.
@wendycohen9038 Yeah, you don't get it
@lukesalazar9283 what's there to get? He's homophobic?
Hint: it’s because of people like you
