1) No one stands up to them. Oh, sure, there's some who do (let's say about twice as many who are gay), but those are labeled and ostracized by the community as a whole for being homophobes.

2) Every corporate office is filled with propaganda. Safe spaces for homosexuals, unity, etc. Walk through the average Chevron cubicle city and you'll see every manager's door has the rainbow flag on a taped up piece of paper, and few family photos anywhere (that might offend) unless the employee is gay, then it is like a shrine.

3) Once they had the corporate bullpens, they could not only get financed by the corporations, but starve those few who dared not agree with them by cutting off funding. ‘How can you say you have an inclusive work place when you're funding homophobes?’

4) Actual strong economic protest would change every corporation within weeks, but boycotts of 5% of customers vs being labeled a non-inclusive workplace and maybe having a couple people show up at your doorstep with a rainbow flag wins. Reason why boycotts are utter failures is many feel guilty protesting homosexuality - it's not their business what two adults do, love the sinner, hate the sin, etc.

So there you go, that's how it was done. Once gays were able to create absolute (approved) rainbow harmony in corporate America, they had the ultimate weapon: We will say you've lied, gone back on your promises to include us, that you're homophobic... And of course back it up with lawsuits for discrimination in the workplace.

Until we have some major broadly supported figures who actually stand up to all the PC crap, they will remain in this lockstep formation.
