and this once again just shows that companies will say whatever they think will yield the most money. Their support for any cause is hollow.

Just look at pride month to see this in action

Yeah they're usually just doing it for money, but that means that the population that will think higher of a company with pride logos outweighs the group that will avoid pride. Even if they're not really doing it for moral reasons, companies are okay with turning away homophobes. And that makes me happy.

Yeah that makes me happy as well, thanks for putting a positive spin on it :)

Yes.
For example these shallow companies gladly show the pride flag on their US twitter accounts, but their russian/middle eastern accounts never do.
Piss easy to "do the right thing" when doing the right thing is profitable and widely accepted in the society. Oh how noble of them. Such courage!
Maybe you love it, but I detest it. It's hollow and disingenuous. All they do is follow the money. And if hating on a minority group/LGBTQ was profitable they'd do it in a heartbeat.
Companies are not peoples friends.
