Well, and this is a perfect time to play cut 326. I think this is kind of some of the stuff you're talking about, Alex. 326.

Yeah, if you have little kids, don't watch that. Don't watch that. Don't watch the Iraqi version. Don't watch the American version, Alex. By the way, I will say we did find one corporation besides PBS, taxpayer-funded, that was – that did change their logo, 325. Go ahead and throw that up. This is the one. I bet you won't guess where it's from. Oh, wait, that's right. It's from Canada.

Air Canada did change their logo this year because, of course. Alex, your reaction to the more muted...

Well, I totally agree. I mean, listen, you know, and Charlie put out a tweet to this extent, but I couldn't agree more. You know, pride, you know, most people will accept that two grown adults have, you know, freedom within the privacy of their home. Nobody wants to be policing that. I mean, some people do, but like the vast majority of Americans are not interested in that. Right.

Yeah, exactly. I have other things I'm much more interested in than two adults' sex life that I may find disgusting or uncomfortable or whatever. But that's my right to feel that way. It's their right to do whatever. I don't want to hear about it. I don't want to talk about it. Secondly, though, what the fundamental flaw of pride was is that it was coercive.

It was designed to force not only acceptance, the thing we just talked about. That's not what we're talking about. It was designed to push the limits and then make you celebrate, forced celebration, and then forced participation. Your kids will hold the rainbow flag in their hand and cheer it on, or your kids will have to talk about it or act it out or write essays on it or watch it on TV.

They can't escape it. It's fundamentally coercive. It's a cultural tyranny of sorts, and I think we should just get rid of it altogether. I mean, that's where I'm at. I do not want Pride Month anymore in my country. I find it corrosive. I find it unproductive, destructive and morally repugnant when you see the way that they go about in the streets.

You know, grown men whipping each other, wearing leather straps. You got like Scott Weiner, the state senator out of California, who's pictured doing these types of things, celebrating. You cannot normalize that type of behavior and still have a moral and upright culture. You just simply can't. And by the way, you can't.

I would feel the same, Alex, if it was straight couples doing the same thing out in the middle of the street. There's no place for that in polite society.

Well, I think we are making progress, Alex. So there is a clip here. Let's go ahead and actually 327, throw that graphic up. Boise Pride cancels season kickoff, citing insufficient attendance, which is something... to behold, certainly.
