Companies and the Rainbow

           


    

                So, first off I want to say happy Price Month! I hope that if you are part of the LGBTQ+, and you have read my blogs, that you get some sort of substance out of it. I also hope you live your life as happily as you want, and as what you want to be. That said, I apologize the way some companies use your symbol. The rainbows on every pride flag are iconic, no doubt about that. With that in mind, you do have people incorporating ten into their logo to show support. However, you also have big companies who use the rainbows in a place like America..... But not in other places where LGBTQ+ pride is hated.

          So, I am sure this has been gone over before, but usually big companies like Bethesda, Disney, or even BMW, they don't use the rainbow logos in certain countries. They also never mention anything about Pride Month, at all. Now, I will acknowledge that there are other people running foreign branches, these are pretty large companies after all. Not everyone is going to agree on certain politics. However, I am sure if one of those countries changed their views, then they would hop on the Pride Month wagon to make the extra money.

             It doesn't stop with the LGBTQ+ either. There is issued of race, religion, and other views that, if a country is negatively against them, a company will go along with to make the extra money. The question of 'would they agree to an older, more corrupt' mindset becomes much more clear if you look at the logos they use. Even the most simple design tells a story, especially when paired with another one. So, make it known you do not stand for this. Let them know they should not try to cash in on an issue of they don't really care. With that said, thank you for reading, and happy pride month!
