Whatever you think the colors mean, they are a political symbol to others. Displaying political symbols when being paid as part of your job is commonly disallowed and is not limited to rainbow flags.
What part of being "openly gay" requires the display of gay pride colors? Colors that are very closely tied to the political movement?
"Flags are political symbols, borrowed from the vocabulary of nationalism, with similar overtones of citizenship, belonging, borders. They represent what the historian Benedict Anderson called “imagined communities”—self-constituted entities, united less by shared experiences than by shared beliefs in shared experiences.

Even the designer of the flag considers it a political symbol.
"According to Gilbert Baker, the designer who, in 1978, first used a rainbow as a symbol for LGBT causes, “For the past almost 40 years, the rainbow flag has stood as a politically powerful, meaningful, and also aesthetically effective symbol.” https://www.letallplay.org/post/yes-fifa-lgbt-rainbow-is-political
Also with their ban of Pridetape now I see no reason to support this operation with my money.
Funny, that was what got me interested in watching the NFL this season. Nothing against pride tape but professional sports should NOT be about politics, from either side. That's what I'm supporting.
a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.
Size of a country has zero impact on your daily commute.
Lol Ok. Guess everyone has to crowd together in comparatively tiny little cities. All this usable land outside the cities is now uninhabitable. Genius.
Let me guess, we will own nothing and be happy, right? Oh and don't forget about eating bugs!! Yum yum!
When did I say there weren't any winners? I said people think there's a chance that they might win personally. And you can state the gamblers fallacy any way you like, the fact that there are winners in a lottery has nothing to with the chances of winning personally. Bad at math, bad at logic, too emotional, call it anything you like. Any hope is a result of these flaws, not the cause.
And they say we should all just switch to electric bikes like in the Netherlands. I tried showing them a comparison of the states using a map but turns out "I am just being difficult"
I live in a city, with a public transport system, and it's terrible. Nobody but the poors bother with it as it takes HOURS longer than simply driving. This isn't hyperbole, it's actual trip times from actual trips taken.
I'm guessing you're not in the US? 'Cause here nearly everyone is owned by Clear Channel/iHeartMedia. Nothing of value is being discovered there.
