Thousands celebrate Silicon Valley Pride's 49th year with all eyes on 2024 election

[@Thomas23-tu8gj]

"Pride" should be about accomplishments, not one's sexual orientation.

How many holidays does the LGBT political congolmerate have at this point?

[@celebrityrog]

Really we have one, Pride. Pride isn't necessarily a particular day or month, however, customarily and because the first event was held on the final weekend of June, usually it falls on that worldwide. However, it is not summer in Australia, New Zealand, half of South America and Africa so places that celebrate may do so in their summer seasons, January. In other places, like Palm Springs, June is extraordinarily HOT HOT HOT weather, and with the competition of Los Angeles, San Francisco, NYC, etc, the city holds their event in a completely different season all together like Spring or Autumn. It also means people from colder regions of the US who may not necessarily have a Pride event, can go someplace warmer, friendly and have an event that represents them. So Pride is the symbolic event that marks the end of a celebratory month of LGBT history. LGBT history is also US and Heterosexual history. It's a celebration of civil rights and those who believe and fought at state and federal levels to show that the USA is in fact an equal country where anyone can be of equal status, regardless of their expression. It also has lead to partners having a right to make decisions for their loved ones if they are medically unwell, need treatment, or need arrangements made for a funeral. It means bringing recognition for the things some take for granted and have no idea that others are denied that exact same benefit.

This isn't the 49th Year for Silicon Valley Pride, because it used to be called San Jose Gay Pride and it was held in the Discovery Center park in downtown. I know, because I lived it through the 90s and early 2000s.
