10 Of June's Best Pride Month Memes (So Far)
It's LGBTQ pride month. While the concept of showing support for queer friends and family was meant to spread positivity, pride month has evolved into a corporate nightmare as well, with thousands of companies changing their logs to rainbow versions and claiming they support the gay community while also not appearing to care in any other way than selling their own rainbow merch. As such, pride month has fallen out of favor a bit, both within and outside of the LGBTQ community, because it's started to feel more like a corporate event than anything.
There are other aspects to pride month, of course, such as the pride parades and performances that have been making news headlines nationwide. So if you're into celebrating this month, hopefully you're finding some joy and community in these big events, and we genuinely do wish you a happy pride month. Pride month wasn't meant to become a corporate festivity, but honestly it was kind of inevitable, so we're not really that surprised. So whether you're straight or gay or somewhere in between, these pride month memes provide an entertaining look at our society this June that you're sure to love. Here are some our new favorites.

To all the big companies out there: thanks for changing your logo! It's not like that really does anything, but hey, it's an advertising technique.
