By "woke" you mean acknowledge that gay people exist and should be treated with dignity and respect just like anyone else? Wouldn't the "snowflakes" be the ones scared of seeing two girls kiss? You may not be a fundamentalist, but they have you on a leash.Get woke, go broke.

Ideally, they should be free to chose their ads, without pressure from either side.
What exactly makes hallmark "homophobic"?
but that was certainly discriminatory.
Naw. It's a fairly well known meme attesting the fact that most of the population is not LGBT and doesn't really care about products and services that reflects that. It has no appeal.By "woke" you mean acknowledge that gay people exist and should be treated with dignity and respect just like anyone else?

So is the real/root of the problem capitalism in this case?
I think you'd be surprised.Naw. It's a fairly well known meme attesting the fact that most of the population is not LGBT and doesn't really care about products and services that reflects that. It has no appeal.
It has to do much with the overall bottom line and has nothing to do with things like acceptence or discrimination , yet rather the fact that the majority of the customer base happens to be straight and is not interested in LGBT affairs so their money simply goes elsewhere.
Aye, no matter how disgusting their ways, I want their business.I think you'd be surprised.
Regardless of the law, try running a small business with a "whites only" sign on your door. Most people aren't black, but are whites like me. Meaning, I would never patronize a business with a racist policy. Competitive businesses, like TV channels and greeting cards, cannot afford to lose both the gay and the "straight but not narrow" markets. Catering to them is the future. Because we are the rapidly growing majority, especially amongst the up scale customers.

It has nothing to do with that from how I see it.I think you'd be surprised.

Your logic makes no sense. So you actively avoid products or services if their ads target any demographic other than your own? Keep in mind that the company whose ads were pulled also had other commercials that featured strait couples. Stop parroting the memes of neckbeard incels and think for yourself.Naw.

I think you're missing the big picture of marketing.It has nothing to do with that from how I see it.
It's just that the customer base is largely straight and is not going to pay attention to commercials and promotions targeting GLBT folks.
Gees, lighten up a bit already!The final result is to be applauded, not ridiculed,
