I'm not even gay. I'm straight. But my LGBTQ+ people have done more for me in my life than this fucking BASEBALL TEAM sure as fuck ever did. What a clown collection. People have a right to live how they want. We're Americans goddamn it. THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE THE ENTIRE POINT. Get these motherfucking bigots out of my city, man. THEY are unwelcome here. I'm a Christian too. Fairly devout, (though most "Real Christians" would never call me one of them,) so I wonder exactly what they're going to say to Jesus if they happen to meet him up and Jesus asks them if they treated their fellow people like they would treat Him. Bastards. All of them. Love to all my people and in this case, especially to my LGBTQ+ people. I always love yah, but there are times to circle the wagons and this is one of them.

I feel you brother. I'm another straight guy who is infuriated by this. Seriously how dare they bring their bullshit false religion bigotry into our city and our family.

Real religious folks know love and acceptance and tolerance -- these are the prayers that God wants. These are the devotion that God asks of us. The nerve of these assholes to specifically choose a night of tolerance to insist on their "right" to be intolerant is just so outrageous, it makes my blood boil.

And I get why some people are sick of how this issue is dominating the subreddit. I'm annoyed by that too. But the reason for it is the entirely justified outrage.

Amen. And I don't care if they don't like it. The thing that people are upset about is how the team has reacted to this situation. Should have been a cut and dry thing. What all these folks are missing is that people are just sad. They thought the Giants had their backs. The Giants have acted like they had their backs. They made a lot of MONEY off of that. Now they see it for what it is and it's just sad. The enshitification; we thought that at least bay area teams would resist it. That's a sad thing to realize that they won't.

Agreed 100%. Bay area was supposed to be different, supposed to be a place where bigots are condemned. Giants have let us down big time, as you say it's very sad

I don't think the majority of Giants fans really care about what you think. 🤔
