It doesn't bother me either, but I feel like this year they've taken control of the events here entirely, and everything is being managed by businesses. Literally everything is paywalled, and there's not even a parade or any outdoor events, and I guarantee that no one will be masking. Can't help but feel they've cut off a big part of the queer community here and that it's turned into an opportunity for monetization. It doesn't feel like Pride, like at all.
