Mike Sington says we can’t cancel Pride. THEY WON’T LET US.
No really.
For those of you who don't know who Mike Sington is ... and include me in that group, too, which is why I had to look him up on the Internet ... Sington used to be a "senior executive" with NBCUniversal who now styles himself as an "entertainment and pop culture guru" and "Hollywood's Ultimate Insider." Let us pause and express the obvious ...
So, Sington is a bloviating egomaniac who desperately feels the need to sermonize about pride. Okay ... knock yourself out, Mike.

Just an observation, Mike, but queers probably should have avoided the descriptor "pride" from the outset simply for their own benefit, don'tcha know. Pride is one of the Seven Deadly Sins and it always precedes your downfall. And besides, what exactly are you proud of, anyway ... that you're a catcher AND a pitcher at the same time???
Let’s be honest, if conservatives really wanted to cancel Pride we’d have done so a long long long time ago. They’ve been pushing this ‘event’ for years now and up to this point we’ve all sort of just minded our own business or even celebrated with them. There are plenty of gay conservatives out there ...
What conservatives are really trying to ‘cancel’ is adults using children to push their agenda, like convincing them they’re in the wrong bodies and pushing for them to have medical procedures that could change their lives forever. THAT’S what we’re canceling, Mike.
Not Pride.
Clearly though, if conservatives really wanted to, we could. Just take a look at what we’ve done to Target, Bud Light, and others. We’re done sitting down and shutting up when our children are being targeted, pun intended. And until you can figure out that kids shouldn’t have to worry about PRIDE or transitioning or any of that other crap we’re going to keep pushing back.
Deal with it.
Chad Prather (@WatchChad) ~ {Replying to MikeSington} And YOU can’t cancel those of us that stand in defense of children’s innocence. We won’t let you. The voice of the secretly perverse has grown louder and you can’t deny that fact. Some have overplayed their hand and hurt any progress you made. Mind your own camp.
Bingo.
It’s not conservatives LGB should be angry at, it’s the T and the Q.

John Stark (@SandmanSlim02) ~ {Replying to @MikeSington} We don’t want it canceled. We want it kept away from the kids until they’re legal adults.
Maura (@indiesentinel) ~ {Replying to @MikeSington} It's not about canceling Pride. It's about indoctrinating children.
Cynical Publius (@CynicalPublius) ~ {Replying to @MikeSington} If you are proud of yourself, why do you need constant reminders to have pride?
The Yootopian (@TheYootopian) ~ {Replying to @MikeSington} Here's the thing about "PRIDE":
If you need to showcase it. If you need to constantly validate it. If you need to force others to acknowledge it ... it isn't pride.
It's narcissism.
You just got bitch-slapped with the truth, Mike.
And boom went the dynamite.
Nailed it.
If you need Pride to be proud of the fact you’re gay maybe you’re not all that proud of it in the first place. Just sayin’.
