It stopped being about acceptance over a decade ago. It's purely a weapon/marketing ploy at this stage.That may have been what it started out to be, but not now. It's turned into a nasty political machine and that's trying to manufacture acceptance by force. It's not going to work and you're already seeing a backlash.
Most actual gay people probably ought to find it repulsive.
EDIT: as a note that's only somewhat relevant, the overwhelming majority of champagne socialists (see: the whacko wealth hoarders that have shown up in this thread as examples) have basically zero contact with any community they claim they're "prideful" for, and yet feel the obligation to speak as if they know all of the ins-and-outs of each of those communities. My favorites are watching them talk about the plight of black folks while being the first ones to literally never visit black communities and refusing to do any kind of actual meaningful work for those communities. They don't even like getting out and listening to people!
