The main thing to realize about the "months" is they accomplish the exact opposite of what they advertise.

Black history month creates MORE racism. It brings attention to the differences. Equality comes from not spending an entire month pointing out that certain groups are different. Moreover, the underlying message is that these groups need assistance and can't make it on their own.

Kids go to school and we spend inordinate amounts of time and energy going over the civil rights movement. Without this so-called important history lesson kids would just grow up thinking the black kids were equal. We make sure to teach them that they are NOT equal. They are different. They need their own month.

It's all so backwards.

The idea of an entire month centered around homosexual orientation is beyond messed up. And exactly why is a gay pride parade about public nudity? If the LGBTQKSDLAJFLKASDJ community really wanted equality, then they wouldn't present themselves in such degenerate fashion. But, it's not about equality, it's about celebrating the gay lifestyle. And boy do we ever celebrate it. Being gay is not a limitation in our society whatsoever. In media it's pretty much presented as the greatest thing in the entire world.
Such a weird take.

The point of teaching history is to learn from it and to gain awareness. Gay people are marginalized... your stupid tropes in this very post regarding gay people are entirely contradictory to your message... "they represent themselves in a degenerate fashion"... "the media portrays it as being the greatest thing in the entire world"... mocking them with "LGBTQKSDLAJFLKASDJ"... You're outwardly marginalizing them IN THIS POST rather than accepting their differences.

That is the point, but it never seems to be the result. There are two things that humans are completely incapable of... learning from history, and learning from their mistakes.

Gay people are marginalized? Well, a lot of different groups of people are also marginalized, but you don't see them parading down the street for an entire month complaining about it.

You're right... issue is, if you don't provide education... people try to make people their slaves. Weird how that happens?

It's weird how it's always one side perpetuating the tropes that keep people marginalized.

Probably wouldn't need a Gay pride month if Republicans didn't keep slandering and attacking Gays... would you?

Based on dumb things that one politician and one podcaster said. Sure, let's spend a ton of money and go out of our way to present ourselves as different and tell you that you have to accept us based on what a small minority of people in 2026 think.
