Many corporations at SF Pride
Felt a bit cringy at times. Alaska Airlines had a cool choreography in uniform though, they earned it. Apple was a bit too corporate with their rainbow Apple logo, Bud Light definitely bringing the whole commercial vibe, Disney showed some restraint by not using big corporate logos: just employees with Mickey Mouse ears. I was frankly surprised to see so many companies, but at the same time most people work for one. I definitely didnβt see Coinbase nor Tesla π
This is free advertisement for corporations. You have state funded security, an audience and employees volunteering their time to act on behalf of the company. It's a match made in heaven for them. Corporations be like

What did you expect? 99% of pride is just corporations making their logo rainbow for a month.
I also saw the cops, schools, and community orgs. I guess I only expected to see those. But it make sense to have companies too. Itβs just that sometimes it ends up being a bit forced (to avoid cancellation rather than to actually be an ally).
Groomer schools are there? What a surprise π "A bit forced" π
