Good. Some pride parades have become a joke. In my city companies like TotalEnergy, Deloitte, the police are joining the parade.

It's not a parade to fucking pink wash your company or oppressive fascist police force. Fuck you. You are not our ally.

Amsterdam pride is basically just a commercial for companies as well. And we also had a boat for the ministry of defense, another boat for the police and another boat for political parties with GroenLinks, PvdA, CDA and VVD

100% agree Amsterdam Pride is a corporate-led joke. I can't even stomach going to the boat parade anymore, makes my blood boil. Bunch of capitalists, warmongers, and fascists (but I repeat myself) pretending to give a F about marginalized groups without a single hint of irony. Plus the grandstanding of government-approved performative issues of the year (pro-Ukraine and pro-Israel), August here we come.
