US clothing brand Abercrombie and Fitch has attracted an online backlash with a tweet seen by many as implying Gay Pride is not just for gay people.

The tweet, which has since been deleted, read: "The Pride community is everybody, not just LGBTQ people. - Kayla, merchandiser."

Twitter critic Zeus Tipado compared the brand's behaviour to opponents of the Black Lives Matter movement, who dismiss evidence of racial inequality with the slogan "All Lives Matter".

Identity politics always ends up making war on itself. It is the logical conclusion.

All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.

Yes, let’s keep the divisiveness going. It’s how the Deep State controls the popular e; turning groups against each other.

I care because I do not want their diseases and moral filth around my family.

To know who rules over you, just see who you cannot mock.

So yeah, homos rule over us now.

The Abercrombie and Fitch Company died in about 1980. The organization that bears the name has no other relation to the former company.

Equality isn’t for everyone.

Stalinists on the Farm believe some animals are more equal than others.

Gay Pride is a homofascist march, it ain’t a celebration of society.

Another proof, as if it were needed, of the falsehood of the canard that people want to be equal. No one wants to be equal; everyone wants to be special.

Unfortunately, many people define “special” as “I’m something you’re not, it sucks to be you, and I’ll be damned if I’ll ever let you be what makes me special.”

Your post caused me to look up their history. Essentially, the original company shut its doors in 1977...and another company bought the name and mailing list in 1978. Today’s company really has absolutely nothing to do with the original. I had no idea.

The MAD TV spoofs they did on Abercrombie are probably more truthful than some care to admit.

I loved shopping in Chicago’s Abercrombie And Fitch Co. many years ago. They had such good golf stuff and skying stuff. I’d spend a lot of time looking and picking out. So much fun.

True. Identity politics always demands absolute purity of ideology. Any departure is cause for a lynching.

What is there in “gay pride” to be proud of?
