"NHL caves to bigots, let's them win"

While I didn't support the performance move anyway, this sends a message that homophobia is a big enough influence in their sport to dictate policy.

The fact that they're still doing everything else just draws attention to it being weak ass rainbow capitalism.

Here's the thing about rainbow capitalism, it shows that we are a large enough group that it's worth it to advertise to us.
