they're now trying to make July "disability pride month", as someone who's worked and volunteered with those with disabilities it just seems exploitative and sickens me, perhaps it will be easier for charities to make money of course, but the vast majority of society doesn't need a full month of being told "don't be a d*ck to group x" in the 21st century, I think someone's making a tonne of money out of this and that's the reason pride months still exist. Most of us will agree that it's okay to be gay, or it's okay to be disabled and you should simply be treated on the merit of your character, none of this seems necessary to me, especially with how politicized it all becomes.

@@NiskaMagnusson thanks for your reasoned comment. We wouldn’t want anyone or group exploited.
