Corporations publicly celebrating LGBT+ equality is a good thing and I am glad to see it coming back.

Baby queers with unsupportive families in small towns should know that they can grow up to be whatever they want to be, whether that’s a gender-abolitionist queer theory professor or a boring suburbanite with a middle management job at a Fortune 100 company.

This is the level of social acceptance I want for LGBT people:

Wow it’s actually SO fucked up that this huge government contractor that is a major employer where I grew up is publicly embracing LGBT social and civil equality. Queer people would be MUCH better off if they were extremely homophobic and the only jobs available to us were at lefty nonprofits.

Generally I absolutely agree, but it is also hard to escape the irony that inevitably results.
