Pride griping
I want to go to a Pride that bans brands, cops, and politicians.
I remember going to a Pride event in DC when I was *just* starting to express myself as trans, and being profoundly disappointed that it was all, like, BofA booths. The queerest thing there was the person from HRC asking me for money.
It was a little better in Albuquerque at least. And the Trans Pride March in Seattle is mostly good. But so much of Pride is just... commodified.
