False equivolency 101. Being straight is a societal norm, being gay is not. Again, I could care less what people do in their bedrooms, but the posters are a political statement, 100%.

Sure, I get that part, and yeah, why not? Marketing to that particular demographic makes good business sense. No problem with that. But that's not what is going on here.

You're missing the point. It's not about being gay, it's about shoving a political agenda propaganda piece in people's faces. Big difference which some can't seem to grasp.

it’s so ironic how the “facts don’t care about your feelings” crowd are so easily upset by walking past a picture that marketing has decided will help make us money and boost everyone’s PS. Snowflakes need a safe space.

like what “agenda” are they pushing? Gay people exist and should spend money on Delta?
Think real hard about it and you might figure it out... or not.

70% of Americans support gay marriage. That makes it a norm. Doesn't matter if you don't support gay marriage. It's a normal thing now

Cite your stats.

False. You don't know what the defintion of "societal norm is" and you also don't understand that the original point wasn't discussing gay marriage. Although that may have been an intentional trick, slight of language, on your behalf to attempt to redefine the conversation in your favor.

MSM had virtually zero coverage of any of these events other than to get their 50 high ranking officials to declare the laptop a Russian disinformation campaign, the Border Czar along with Myorkas the Sec of Homeland Secirity to decare there is no crisis, and the Biden inner kabal to circle the wagons and blame Biden's "Well known stuttering speech impediment"

Well, common sense tells me to believe my lying eyes. Now, even the MSM press feels lied to and are doing their darndest to try to salvage a least some semblence of journalistic integrity.

IOW watch/read a variety of news outlets then at least you are aware of the issues from both perspectives.
well said. That's why I had said 80 percent for Fox because they obviously aren't perfect but at least with Fox, Newsmax and News Nation you get some shred of truth . All these moronic news anchors at MSNBC, CNN and the networks that keep saying a vote for Trump ( whether one likes him or not ) is a vote for Hitler need to be fired pronto . That's just disgusting ,offensive and gross negligence.

Maybe 25 years ago I'd agree with your assessment. But not today. It's a minority, but it is an accepted relationship practice now.

maybe you should grow up and watch real news, not your talking head bonanzas. I dare you to detox for a month on BBC, Reuters, PBS News Hour and nothing else. Bet you can’t do it.
