@matrix are you mistaking liberalism for leftism again ![]()
@animeirl
Yes. That's true with corporations but what product is the House Of Commons selling?
@matrix voter approval
@animeirl
Of tory voters?
@matrix people who don't consistently vote for a particular party. Those are who determine elections. Also, while not on quite the scale as the US, the years of incompetence and massive failures in dealing with coronavirus have probably started to put the legitimacy of the UK government into question which is something I'm sure everyone in power would like to shore up.
@animeirl I don't think those care about LGBT etc
I think those people care about certain policies like the tax rates, handling of crises etc
@matrix maybe, but i think you might be underestimating how many people are emotionally invested in perceiving themselves as Good People
@animeirl
But then my post is still right though
@matrix er, not really, at least not in the context of ~politics~
@matrix Maybe not directly, but brands of turned pride colors into a marketing gimmick. see pride flag? we love gays. we're the good brand. pls engage and consume product. they're just trying to piggyback off of that idea
