**Biden’s LGBT Celebration: Pride Month Proclaimed Amid Ongoing Backlash Against Woke Corporatism**
In continuing support for the LGBT community, President Joe Biden proclaims June as “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Pride Month.” Biden echoes this message for the third year in a row, expanding on last year’s proclamation to include “Intersex.” However, this persistent support for the LGBT movement brings concerns regarding woke corporatism and further resistance in some states.
As part of his administration’s agenda, President Biden intends to appoint “a historic number of highly qualified openly LGBTQI+ judges and public servants at all levels of the Federal Government.” Biden emphasizes that his entire administration will stand with the LGBTQI+ community in their fight for “freedom, justice, and equality.” Unfortunately, these well-intentioned efforts are met with opposition in states pushing back against radical leftist gender ideologies. This year alone, over a dozen states have banned what the president describes as “medically necessary health care” for transgender youth.
Meanwhile, the month of June will be awash with corporate support for the LGBT movement; many companies are expected to showcase their alliance by adopting rainbow logos and sponsoring related events. While some view these acts of solidarity as a positive force for change, others argue that such “woke corporatism” is stirring up unnecessary controversy. This growing opposition is evident in the ongoing backlash against Bud Light, who enlisted transgender figure Dylan Mulvaney for a controversial advertising campaign.
Major retailer Target is also facing a boycott movement in connection to their sale of Pride products, including products targeted at children. Critics point to the company’s partnership with the brand Abprallen, which also sells items emblazoned with the slogan, “Satan respects pronouns.” Although the controversial items are not directly available for purchase at Target, the company’s association with Abprallen has further incensed consumers who demand change.
**As We Wave Our Pride Flags, Let Us Not Forget the Importance of Unity and Sensibility**
Amid President Biden’s declaration of Pride Month and the surge of corporate support for the LGBT community, it is crucial to recognize that such actions are not without consequence. As proponents of traditional values and conservatism rally against these efforts, we must strive for unity and sensibility to ensure a fair and just society for all.
