Good on them!

Not gonna look it up but what ridiculous symbology are the Proudly Racist Boys using now?

They should, but probably won't, lend the trademark to a gay activist group.

They've decided things don't need be so formal anymore. They're just going to keep jerking each other without labeling it, since that's why most of them went to the gatherings anyway.

I think they've truly become "Proud Men", and I commend them.

Probably a rainbow flag. They are proud, after all

It plans to offer similar apparel for Pride Month and Juneteenth, with proceeds going to a community justice fund.

This was my favorite bit.
