Although the National Hockey League (NHL), was once America’s last remaining source of non-woke entertainment, they are now completely out of the woods.
With Pride Month celebrations being over in eight days – which can’t come soon enough – the NHL is using its influence to make sure that everyone continues to make LGBT members feel “safe.”
In a graphic titled “How To Be An Ally,” the NHL listed several ways to support LGBT members in their fight to be loved and supported – which they already are, but apparently not enough.

To be an allie means to actively work to make the LGBTQ+ community feel comfortable and to promote equality for marginalized persons.

It’s funny that the tweet mentions them as a “marginalized” people, when all of corporate America, hundreds of “Christian” churches and millions of citizens support them through all the ways the graphic says to support them.
This is why calls for action such as this are so meaningless. Everyone knows the LGBT community has a lot of support. If you even hint at hatred or rejection, why would you want to be a part of a hateful community?
July 1st can’t come soon enough.
