Editor’s note: This story has been updated to reflect that, after previously cancelling the Eurovision screening in “boycott” of Israeli finalist Eden Golan, 3 Dollar Bill decided to “move forward with the Eurovision viewing party this Saturday as a free event for anyone who wishes to attend.”

They are so brave!

I am loathing the idea of Pride this year. I will show up in my rainbow Star of David shirt. I will not be made to hide one identity while "celebrating" the other. FUCK THAT!

And, I can't wait to vote for him...I will be much older, but when he runs for president...

....he's got my vote.

Mærsk, Novo Nordisk and Dansk Industri withdraw support for Copenhagen Pride due to 'politicisation' about Gaza

Both Mærsk and Novo Nordisk, as DI, have chosen to stop partnering with Copenhagen Pride, Berlingske writes.

The stories are in Danish - if anyone can read.

Apparently a recent apology was not enough:


We want to sincerely apologise for bad communication

We recognise that our communications in relation to Israel and Palestine from Winter Pride until now have been unsatisfactory and have caused confusion and nervousness amongst our partners and the public, and that we should have been more open in our dialogue with you, and we are sorry: You deserved better from us.

We made clear mistakes when we stated in February that we would ask questions about our partners’ business activities in Israel and Palestine. We do not ask questions or make demands from our partners on Israel and Palestine, so it was a poor choice of wording from our side. The reason that we mentioned questions around Israel and Palestine was to ensure those who had concerns that this was of course covered by our ethics policy practice. And just to make it clear: Copenhagen Pride does not ‘take a side’ in the conflict nor does it ask its partners to do so.
