I mean, legality aside, lots of companies have suffered financially for doing anything perceived as supporting anything LGBTQ lately. Target, Starbucks, Bud, etc. They’re definitely defying the urge to stay silent and neutral when it seems best to for business.
Have they actually suffered tho, or is that just what the bigots who boycott them for having rainbows on their products are saying happened because they want to feel like they won?
I not sure if there’s that cause and effect. It’s probably more something in the lines of:
“How can we turn around this failing business? I know! Let’s openly support LGBTQ! That will make people return to buy our product. Oh no! People didn’t care.”
Those businesses weren’t failing. The decline in sales is perfectly timed with right wing outrage. 30-40% of this country is now triggered by rainbows.

Sorry. Sales wasn’t the right term.
Their stocks have dropped by an average of 20% when others have done the reverse.
Corporations like to see their stocks go up not down. FYI.
