Gays tend to have higher disposable income (more likely to both be high wage owners without kids). It shouldn't surprise anyone that corporate America wants to target them with ads and make them feel welcome so they spend their money at your company. Same with allowing employees to wear LGBT swag. Not to mention that the airlines seem to employ more gays than nearly any other industry. Leave them alone. Give them the same respect you demand. Be happy to take their money and thank them for their business.
Hell if you want to understand the gay community better go down to Key West and drink with them at the locals bars. They're a fun crowd and love to travel and party!
Sonic railing about this with his tired boring anti woke warrior agenda is useless trolling as usual. But apparently not a TOC violation. If everyone ignored him and denied him the attention he craves he would go away.

Significant:
having or likely to have influence or effect : IMPORTANTa significant piece of legislationalso : of a noticeably or measurably large amounta significant number of layoffsproducing significant profits
Both definitions apply. The number of LGBT in America is a greater number than all but two states. It's the 4th largest demographic behind white, Hispanic, and black.
If you are calling them insignificant, you must also consider any state whose population is also less than 7% of the US population insignificant. You want to get more into the weeds? The largest state in our union is 39M. I'll consider that "the whole." A state that is 7% of the size of California would still put LGBT at 38th. So unless you think Idaho, Montana, The Dakotas, West Virginia and so on are insignificant populations as a voting block, then you cannot say LGBT is insignificant either.

I know a casino in Vegas where they guaranteee the bettor a "significant" change of winning.
They tout the gambler wins 7% of the time.
That sounds like a signifinat chance of losing, not winning, to most people.

But, since you want to be pedantic, a 7% chance of dying in a plane crash is "significant"

Agreed.
The difference is, I see how there can be two answers to the same question...both legitimate.
To you, there is only one answer....viewed only thru the lense that you find appropriate.

Another way to look at this. Over 90% of the population are not LGBTQ+. Over 90% is definitely significant.

One of the other posters in that series showed a woman resting her head on a man’s shoulder while they watched a movie. Is that also propaganda?

I can't wait until someone wears the U.S. flag (only one allowed) upside down. This will happen, I guarentee it. More uniform updates to come for sure.
