I think you've completely missed my point. The American labor day was chosen to have a no symbolic date specifically because of the power that the 8 hour work week protests and the haymarket affair in the month of may. It's the definition of a co-opted holiday. It's essentially the Tienanmen Incident for America.
And my point is that it's a paltry concession and ultimately meaningless, as evidenced by the current state of affairs for the average person (in the U.S.).
I fully understood when I wrote that comment that there wasn't a specific "Labor Day", my question was rhetorical.
... Perhaps if I spell it out you'll get it. Pride is important because of the stonewall riots and the sociological symbolism that accompanies those riots which encourages sometimes violent resistance to those that impede on your rights. Similarly international labor day (may day) was rejected by the US as a holiday because it involved riots that resulted in positive change(the 8 hour work day). I was contrasting them. I was not using US labor day as a reason why pride is important. I was explaining that the avoidance of that symbolism by those in power is what explicitly makes pride important.
You don't seem to understand what I'm saying, despite your inability to remain respectful.
Pride month isn't voluntary for many people that experience it. They are just subjected to it by corporations. Do you know how simple it is for an idiot to make a false correlation between increased pushes for inclusivity and a decline in quality of whatever good or service they're receiving? Because people blamed Biden for the inflation at the beginning of his term.
Spare me the third lecture, if what I'm saying isn't making sense then I'm writing you off as a corporate shill.
You must encounter a lot of corporate shills then. The idea that pride is an vehicle to blame the gays for externalities is absolutely ridiculous.
