Thanks. Updated title assuming it's restricted to NSW, until someone else can confirm otherwise.
Doesn't work for me in regional NSW either unfortunately
Thanks. Updated!
It's either special treatment or be treated like everyone else.. you cant have it both ways.
I'm sure the gay community will be devastated.
Yeh, DickDash is all teary and what not
You're such a drag
wow that's fierce
This deal should be ideal for you then … Misappropriating a code for participants… or are there some details you're omitting
Forgot homophobia is still a thing..
It would be nice to see the admins ban those users to be honest. What a disgrace.
I find it bizarre. Surely if there were racist posts it’d be an instant ban. This is no different.
Exactly.
Well its been over 12 hours and despite reports they haven't even removed the post yet, let alone put anyone in the penalty box. It's quite clear to see where they stand in this matter. Sure it's disappointing and disgusting but the fear of God must be stronger.
@pennypincher98: Playing the devil’s advocate here
Comments like
rather not support this gay parade
We don’t need the gay agenda constantly being pushed upon us.
me neither but a discount is a discount
They might be distasteful and unnecessary at worst but do you really believe they need to be taken down?
@Gervais fanboy: Apparently saying you dont support something warrants a removed post. Scrolling past a comment on the internet you dont like might be a better solution
@CheapFart: Exactly If anything, those users up top should be considering reporting these people down here for misrepresenting and outright slandering them…
Also, mods should be disciplining users who false report others. It’s become soo darn common here
Anyways, I’ll wait for @pennypincher to make a counter argument on this. Maybe he/she can give me another perspective on this..
@Gervais fanboy: It's easy. Those comments are inflammatory and there's no reason to keep them.
Regardless of which side you're on (I can't believe we still have sides in 2023), there's nothing that these comments add.
You do remember this is a post about a discount on Doordash, right?
Those comments are inflammatory
Point
there's nothing that these comments add.
Now that’s your bias showing, a lot of comments most comments on this website add nothing at all (most of my own comments too, I am sure).
But that’s still not a good reason to take them down still.
You do remember this is a post about a discount on Doordash
DoorDash is getting political to score some cultural points amongst the youth class, by doing that they leave themselves open to public opinion.
‘Pride’ has got nothing to do with the food delivery business, they have done it for PR.
Positive and negative PR go hand in hand.
You don’t have to be a marketing major to understand that.
@Gervais fanboy: Most comments do not end in a political shitstorm.
It's not exactly biased. If there was a Christian based post I'd still expect comments to remain civil.
Say for example this was "50% off 2 Orders for World Vegan Day". I am not a vegan and frankly I don't care for veganism. However, I'm not going to just say in that post "rather not support plant eaters" or "we don't need the vegan agenda constantly pushed on us".
Most comments do not end in a political shitstorm
But they do though
You can go back and go through the Daily Wire post for example, the overbearing majority was nasty and rude towards the op, Daily wire and the people that work for it.
And the same Satan worshippers dunk on religion and Christianity all the time, funnily enough they wouldn’t do the same with faiths like Islam etc
Coz that isn’t considered PC, yet.
Btw what you are doing is justifying your classy behaviour to defend the rest of everyone else that are claiming to be all offended here. This isn’t about you and me specifically, I am discussing the general theme of things here.
However, I'm not going to just say in that post "rather not support plant eaters" or "we don't need the vegan agenda constantly pushed on us"
Okay cool, that’s your imperative. Nice.
Doesn’t mean that everyone who doesn’t behave like you do, is all of a sudden wrong and should be censored as you suggested earlier.
This is real ‘diversity’ btw.. Diversity of opinions and not about the melanin in our skins.
Having said that, ofcos outright ‘nasty’ comments should be dismantled and logically disfigured or maybe even taken down sometimes.
Just that “I don’t support pride marches” etc doesn’t meet that threshold imo.
@Gervais fanboy: "I don't support gay parades" is unnecessary information which serves no purpose but to initiate an argument as has happened. This goes for every post, it's extremely childish to take the time to click on a post just to say "I don't like this". Saying, "I don't like that Doordash using this event as a cheap PR stunt" is valid because there's actually been a thought process and not "omg I saw a rainbow and now I have to tell everyone I hate oppressed people expressing themselves in a safe environment"
Diversity is just a buzzword these days and means jackshit. Mutual respect is what we should be aiming for. If that's too hard for someone to do, they shouldn't be opening their mouth. End of. Quite sure this is a Christian teaching funnily enough but so many "Christians" these days are just Christmas and Easter Christians cherry picking the parts they want to apply to their life and disregarding others.
don't support gay parades" is unnecessary information which serves no purpose but to initiate an argument as has happened.
1000% agree with you and I have told you that already.
it's extremely childish to take the time to click on a post just to say "I don't like this".
Agreed
don't like that Doordash using this event as a cheap PR stunt"
Agreed
omg I saw a flag I have to exclaim my opinions bc I'm offended as a Christian"
lol, agree
Diversity is just a buzzword these days and means jackshit. Mutual respect is what we should be aiming for. If that's too hard for someone to do, they shouldn't be opening their mouths
Absolutely mate, couldn’t agree with you anymore.
Quite sure this is a Christian teaching funnily enough but so many "Christians" these days are just Christmas and Easter Christians cherry picking the parts they want to apply to their life and disregarding others.
Agree again
So you and I agree with almost everything but with the solution that you suggested earlier about removing those daft comments.
If you really care about making the world a better place, just know that you beat bad ideas by tackling them head on rather than tyrannically shutting down speech. Use your moral and logical high ground to destroy those F***ers with your better arguments.
Silencing speech doesn’t kill the evil that’s out there, it only gives it more self-affirmation and makes it more rigid.
Like, it was the liberal left that taught us all of this, the true libertarians.
Now there’s tyrants being tyrannical whilst masquerading as liberals.
@Gervais fanboy: the comments contribute absolutely nothing of value to the discussion of this post as a bargain, break OzBargain ToS and are blatantly homophobic.
also, it's clear that a lot people don't like those comments. you might even say that the comments may be judged as "objectionable".
is there a reason they need to stay up?
break OzBargain ToS and are blatantly homophobic.
I have quoted their comments above and was hoping someone would do the same to make their point…
None of you have done it so far.
Exactly what have they said that’s ‘homophobic’.
also, it's clear that a lot people don't like those comments
That’s irrelevant, acceptable/unacceptable opinions shouldn’t be based on the popular narrative. That’s the big problem we have now…
Also, the majorities have more often than not been on the wrong side of the history.
And just like you lot, they too loved the idea of censoring opposing narratives/opinions.
But sure, you guys are nothing like that. Got it 👍🏻
is there a reason they need to stay up?
The burden of proof lies on the one’s objecting to those comments and not the other way around.
@Gervais fanboy: Seems like I will have to spell it out. 🤦♂️
The so-called “gay parade” is an LGBT rights protest. It’s a bunch of queer people gathering to say things like “hey, please don’t legislate away our rights” etc, as our government has been recently doing.
Nobody’s making people attend or participate, but they simply “don’t support” it then simply don’t get involved. Don’t blurt it out on the deal page for a DoorDash promo code (like… seriously?). An effortless action, so the effort taken by these people to do so is a statement of objection.
And without any semblance of attempting to facilitate discussion - let alone one in good faith - that’s going to be rightfully seen as nothing more than hate, because that’s all one can expect from such a comment. If one wants an actual productive discussion then one must be prepared to bring to the table more than a singular disparaging half-sentence.
Okay, what if these comments aren’t hateful though? What if all these people just genuinely felt a need to express their non-support for LGBT rights in a totally not homophobic way? Then the general votes and sentiment still indicate that they are statistically likely to be “objectionable as reasonably determined by OzBargain”. If acceptable/unacceptable opinions being based on the popular narrative are the “big problem we have now” then please by all means bring it up with the supposedly opposing-narratives/opinions-censorship-loving lot who drafted the OzB ToS.
Finally, the reader will note that I asked if there was a reason that the comments needed to remain at the END of my post rather than at the start. Hopefully that’s sufficient for them to understand why I’m not going to bother to respond to that burden of proof thing.
The so-called “gay parade” is an LGBT rights protest. It’s a bunch of queer people gathering to say things like “hey, please don’t legislate away our rights” etc, as our government has been recently doing.
lol What are you talking about?
LGBT have more rights than any other group in society right now.
They are the only group that gets away with legislating to allowing sex change and gender reaffirmation madness for little kids.
Not sure about Aus but gender reassignment procedures, hormone blockers etc are being administered to pre teens in the rest of the Western block.
And the worst bit? Any discussion against or even about it is straightaway shut down, gets 0 media coverage, people lose their livelihoods, slandered etc
Are you gonna pretend all of that isn’t happening already? So how many more rights do you want this woke movement to have and would you draw a line somewhere?
How about the new trend of re-classing pedophiles as ‘MAP’ (minor attracted persons) because they shouldn’t be stigmatised anymore. No No No, they are like the rest of us but for the fact they have a little mental condition.
California DA’s have stopped prosecuting them to the full extent of the law and letting them only serve short sentences.
Do you lot atleast condemn that? Coz I haven’t seen anyone from the left come out and do that.
And you wonder why the rest of us are soo sceptical of what’s been happening lately.
@Gervais fanboy: Replace the words “gay” for “black” and you’d be banned for racism. In this case it’s clearly homophobia. It’s far more than “distasteful” and “unnecessary”.
Replace the words “gay” for “black” and you’d be banned for racism.
You are inferring things that haven’t been said here, can none of you actually quote what’s actually been said above ^^
All of you here are speculating intent rather than quoting and scrutinising what’s actually been posted.
Anyways, the comment above states ‘I don’t support the gay parade’
By your logic if I was to say ‘ I don’t support and wouldn’t participate in the BLM parade’
Would that be considered racist in your opinion?
@ldt: So that’s all it took for you to brandish someone with something that sinister? Because calling someone a ‘racist’ should be a very serious thing or atleast it used to be.
And you have made no attempt to understand the other person’s argument or reasoning, just one short sentence is all what you needed?
Hmm, I don’t think someone like you should be in a position to defend anyone’s honour. You are just out here looking for a fight, not a resolution.
@Gervais fanboy: You’ve just tarred yourself with the same brush you’ve attempted to tar me with.
If you don’t support something that preaches love, acceptance and tolerance, what argument or reasoning could you possibly put forward?
You’ve just tarred yourself with the same brush you’ve attempted to tar me with.
I am/was trying to understand people’s POV here until some of you started falsely alleging racism/homophobia etc
Those are some very serious claims. Also, I am not the one here sneakily disliking comments or calling anyone names.
So you and I are not the same my friend.
If you don’t support something that preaches love, acceptance and tolerance, what argument or reasoning could you possibly put forward?
Is it? Well, it must be a weird kind of love where any remote inkling of opposition is met with straight up slander, coordinated attacks and collective calls to have the other party censored/blocked immediately.
The constant language policing, legislating for criminal penalties against anyone that doesn’t agree with you, creating a culture where jobs are now being granted on the basis of someone’s sexuality rather than their actual merit.
Sure, that’s true love alright.
Last time I checked, homosexuality was legal in the West. With 90%+ of the population open/accepting of it.
@Gervais fanboy: Read back what you’ve written, and have a good look at yourself. Maybe do some research, maybe go and talk to a member of the LGBTI and ask them about their experiences. Then come back here and tell me what you’ve written makes any sense at all.
Seriously.
maybe go and talk to a member of the LGBTI and ask them about their experiences
Did you just assume my sexuality right now?
What makes you think I don’t belong to one or multiple of those cohorts?
Hmm, how every insensitive of you…
Then come back here and tell me what you’ve written makes any sense at all.
What I have done : “quote exact things that people have said and made my arguments for/against them”
What you all have been doing : “You are wrong, homophobic, racist…. And if you don’t agree with me, go and read your own comments”
lol, that’s as intellectually lazy as someone gets.
As I said, you are looking for a confrontation/fight and not a discourse.
@Gervais fanboy: You still drinking the Andrew Tate Kool aid? We all know your history. I absolutely love reading your hypocritical posts all the time. Accusing others of "looking for fights". You literally have threatened people with violence in the past. You're just sad old man.
You still drinking the Andrew Tate Kool aid?
Ohh right, where you and many others outright lied about him and then stopped replying when asked to provide a source. Quite similar to this thread lol.
We all know your history.
lol, seems like I am the only one that doesn’t. Go ahead and reference exactly what you are talking about.
You literally have threatened people with violence in the past.
Like when?
Coz I am pretty sure if that was true, I’d be banned already.
Must be really good being you, can just lie without any consequences.
Maybe it’s about time that ozbargain changes its T&C’s when it comes to outright slander.
You're just sad
I am actually very content with my life but whatever, you can have that one.. cool.
old
Well, I am 27 but sure just for you, I’ll ‘identify’ as a 50 year old.
Hope that helps 👍🏻
man
Did you just assume my gender?
@Gervais fanboy: How about "Based. We don’t need the Black/Asian/Italian agenda constantly being pushed upon us."
Agenda implying something sinister or wrong. Clearly racist and the original comment was clearly homophobic.
How about "Based. We don’t need the Black/Asian/Italian agenda constantly being pushed upon us."
That’s a very good point,
So if I see someone type that, I would scrutinise them and ask them exactly what they mean by that?
Are they talking about a possible trans-racial preferencing and promoting unequal rights for some races above other or are they outright against anyone that’s non-white.
Because I don’t see people hating on homosexual people (very very rare, can never be zero unfortunately) but yes, hosting drag shows at schools, talking about homosexuality/heterosexuality with little kids disguised as sex education. Normalising Gender dysphoric beliefs etc are often challenged, yes.
But all of that ^^ has got nothing to do with homosexuality. It would be disingenuous to call such opposition as ‘homophobic’..
@Gervais fanboy: But the comment wasn't about hosting drag shows at schools, talking about sex education, etc.
It was specifically written as "gay agenda" encompassing anything to do with homosexuality. The same language has been used by people promoting hate speech so it doesn't require much thinking about what the author intended in its meaning.
But the comment wasn't about hosting drag shows at schools, talking about sex education, etc.
But how would you know their intent, you never asked or engaged them..
All of you straight up made up your minds coz you saw those triggering buzzwords “ don’t-support-gay”
That’s all it took for you guys?
Btw I also do believe that those dummies should have done better to explain themselves, if they aren’t malicious they should maybe write up a better point with some constructive criticisms to what they actually object to.
But they didn’t do that, I’ll call them lazy trolls and bad communicators, I would reserve my judgement until I have proved and learnt of their intents.
But what I would never do is, jump on these bandwagons of calling people ‘racist and homophobes’
Coz last time I check they are criminal offences. Accusing someone of committing a crime is a very big deal and should be done after some consideration atleast. Don’t be swayed by these hateful trends, be the difference you wanna see in world..
The easiest thing to do is - judge someone rather getting to understand them.
gay agenda" encompassing anything to do with homosexuality
Again, you are pretending as if people don’t use language loosely anymore..
People quite often use hyper extended and exaggerated language to make their points to maybe mask their intellectual inferiorities.
English is like my 5th language, I do that all the time.
And maybe you are right in assessing them but you’d be better off being sure.
Just saying 🤷♂️
Remember - intent over content, always.
@randomusername2017: No, unless someone gets abusive and outright nasty. Comments shouldn’t be taken down, people need to re-learn how to deal with ‘words’ ffs.
How much more soft are we planning to get.
100%
I would not be against this.
To be fair, when in history has it ever been accepted universally.
anywhere until the last 10 years?
It’s not fear, it’s disgust.
Forgot homophobia is still a thing..
I don't care what grown adults want to do and who they want to be with. I'm just sick of always having it in my face with gay this and gay that.. just get on with it and do life without needing to tell everyone like you want a participation trophy or something.
You either want to be treated like everyone else, in which case you don't need to be celebrated and used as a marketing tool by multi corps, or you want special treatment.. which means your not like everyone else and you want to be seen as special, exclusive and be given special treatment (DEI ideology). You can't have it both ways.
lol. I bet you wouldn’t bat an eye seeing an intimate heterosexual couple on a magazine cover or on a park bench hey? But a gay couple? Nah please do that privately, NOT in my face.
Stop trying to surgarcoat your homophobia mate.
First up, you presume too much and pretend to know me
Second, you miss the point.
Third, there are plenty of situation in which heterosexual couple would receive the similar attention (eg, massive age gap between couple, interactional couples.. ect). The fact you fail to notice or care about this is on you.
Lastly, your remark on "parades and marketing campaign normalise gay is & that".. to what end? How do you define when said campaign is a success and what will happen to the parades and campaign? Will they stop?? Will people not mention gay?? Probs not because that doesnt sound realistic.
It was in 2017 SSM was vote as passed in. That was 6yrs ago now and that's not including the social acceptance leading up to it. It's been normal for quite a while. So again, You either want special treatment or be treated like everyone else, you can't have it both ways.
@vash5: SSM attracted a 38% No vote. How many of those people are still around and kicking just 6 years later?
In last year’s election, an inner city Sydney MP with publicised anti-trans comments received one third of the primary vote.
And also just last year our government introduced and passed legislation allowing religious discrimination against people based on sexuality, gender, pregnancy, marital status etc.
Should that be considered as normal? Are we really at equality yet?
SSM attracted a 38% No vote. How many of those people are still around and kicking just 6 years later?
Just because people appose SSM doesn't mean they hate gay people or wish upon them ill will. Not everyone see marriage in the same context so yes, not everyone will want SSM.
In last year’s election, an inner city Sydney MP with publicised anti-trans comments received one third of the primary vote
You mean Alex Greenwich over transgender women’s participation in sport? The irony here (based on your response messages to me) you are making an argument for a democratic of people to have equal rights, shouldn't women equality have access to the same rights?
You can't simply give one demographic rights that overrides the rights of another because it just turns into a loop that solves nothing and destroys the very thing you seek to preserve. This become even more contentious when the minority represents less than 1% of the population but disadvantages 50%.
What we should be doing is creating solutions (new categories), not trying to patch or hot fix inclusivity by excluding what was created.
And also just last year our government introduced and passed legislation allowing religious discrimination against people based on sexuality, gender, pregnancy, marital status etc.
You do realise that same level of discrimination exists within gay community right? How many straight white men do you think are on the board of various gay organisations? Do you think they represented 50/50 on that board? Or how many on the board represent people belonging to various religions and the good values they hold (which lets be honest, the gay community has a reputation for aligning to atheist ideology). The list goes on but I feel you haven't taken this into consideration.
Should that be considered as normal? Are we really at equality yet?
Do you even want to be equal? Do you want special treatment or equal??
Because if its equal you cant have gay bars, you can't have gay events, gay organisations, gay apps, gay communities ect.. You will just have bars, events, organisations, apps and communities that are not defined sex or gender everyone else.
And perhaps the bigger question, what is normal and why does the gay community itself struggle to define this? You will find plenty of gay people who just wanted to get married and that's it! They didn't want any extra legislation written into law after affirming special conditions to the gay community. Don't those people have a right to be herd and have their views represented?
Finally, I noticed you didn't respond to when i said "to what end?". Would be interested to know why and you answer.
Just because people appose SSM doesn't mean they hate gay people or wish upon them ill will. Not everyone see marriage in the same context so yes, not everyone will want SSM.
Marriage is a term with legal implications, and that's context-independent. A vote for No is the same as saying "I don't think gay couples should have the same legal rights as straight ones". No amount of reasoning will change that.
You mean Alex Greenwich over transgender women’s participation in sport?
Nope. Remember when Katherine Deves described transgender children as "surgically mutilated"?
No reason for her to do that. She had the choice to opine respectfully on the topic and yet she intentionally chose hateful language.
And last year, 33% of Warringah stood behind her.
You do realise that same level of discrimination exists within gay community right?
The list goes on but I feel you haven't taken this into consideration.
Why would I give this one iota of consideration? Let's assume without any evidence that gay people are as bigoted as everyone else (and yes, you should really provide at least some semblance of an attempt at research to back up such a strongly-made claim). It doesn't matter. Queers could be the most bigoted people on the planet and still nothing changes the fact that last year the government passed legislation (with widespread support) to allow discrimination against them.
various religions and the good values they hold (which lets be honest, the gay community has a reputation for aligning to atheist ideology)
yes because we should definitely expect gay people to support and participate in religion and its oft-purported good value of homophobia 💀💀💀
Do you even want to be equal? Do you want special treatment or equal??
Actually, you can (and should!) have both. One is a tool to achieve the other. Please look up the term "equity" and contrast it to "equality".
Finally, I noticed you didn't respond to when i said "to what end?". Would be interested to know why and you answer.
Because it doesn't matter. We clearly aren't close to any reasonable definition of normal so I'm not going to waste energy on it here.
Because it doesn't matter. We clearly aren't close to any reasonable definition of normal so I'm not going to waste energy on it here.
Then why even bother to comment in the first place.
Have your say and run away? Sounds like your not just wasting your time but also others.
@vash5: I commented to expose a lie, nothing more or less. If fact checking constitutes "running away" then perhaps cowardice is a virtue we should all be striving for.
I don't mind the occasional debate, but anyone who responds to the legislated eradication of queer rights with a ridiculous tangent on how gay people should be aligning more with the good-valued religions that demonise them is either not acting in good faith or is too far gone for me to bother spending time on.
Don't take it personally. Or do, it's your choice. Either way, my job here is done.
Asking to be treated equally is not the same thing as asking to be treated as identical. The entire premise of your argument is just incorrect.
For example, do you treat men and women as identical- no, you have for example medical treatment. Do you think it’s wrong for different cultures to celebrate their culture - do you argue that Japanese should not celebrate sumo?
However would you then argue that a women or a Japanese person is unable to complain if you treat them differently because they are female or Japanese? Women can’t be bosses because they insist on having GST free tampons?
Recognising and celebrating differences is important, unless you think everyone should be a mindless identical automaton (presumably straight and probably white and male). Celebrating differences is not the same as asking to be treated equally.
Perhaps if you could identify all those specifics of ‘special treatment’ which you are complaining about? Or are you still upset that homosexual can get married?
First up, why are you obsessed with Japanese? 😋
Asking to be treated equally is not the same thing as asking to be treated as identical. The entire premise of your argument is just incorrect.
The rights allotted to the gay community is the same as those for every day Australians. In some circumstance, the gay community has special rights that non gay citizens don't have. What is your point?
For example, do you treat men and women as identical- no
Honestly.. this really depends who you ask because the trans community certainly wouldn't see eye on many aspects both you and I may agree on.
Do you think it’s wrong for different cultures to celebrate their culture - do you argue that Japanese should not celebrate sumo?
Gay people are part of a community NOT a culture. Cultures are made up communities so in your example you can have a sumo that is gay, but you cant have a gay sumo because sumo didn't come from the gay community, it came from the Japanese community of earth.. aka Japan.
However would you then argue that a women or a Japanese person is unable to complain if you treat them differently because they are female or Japanese?
I have no idea what you are trying to say here and how it relates to the conversation earlier. as I said earlier, the rights allotted to the gay community is the same as those for every day Australians and in some circumstance, the gay community has certain rights that those of non gay citizens don't.
Women can’t be bosses because they insist on having GST free tampons?
?? But women are bosses…..
Recognising and celebrating differences is important, unless you think everyone should be a mindless identical automaton (presumably straight and probably white and male).
Sure, but there is a massive point of difference when you are asking/wanting to be equal and the equal doesn't celebrate the point of difference that makes up that community when they are already equal.
(presumably straight and probably white and male).
What does that have to do with our chat? You realise by presuming you are in fact being sexist, racist and discriminating right? If I am CIS, does that mean my voice accounts for anything less of more? What about If I'm black?? Do my words carry more or less value??
Celebrating differences is not the same as asking to be treated equally.
True, but in the same token asking for equality, getting it and having it in peoples faces non stop because you "feel" like your not equal is also not the same either.
Perhaps if you could identify all those specifics of ‘special treatment’ which you are complaining about?
Lol.. Heres one for you, remember how you said "(presumably straight and probably white and male)". According to you and your mindset, this somehow is a point of contention and somehow doesn't allot a equal voice for this demographic over anything thats related to gay.. why? Because that demographic isn't gay. But in the same token, the gay community has a great level of input into schools, children and what needs to be taught despite the fact they can not have kids. Funny how one isnt gay and is seen lesser than in a discussion about all things gay for being straight, while the opposite occurs for those who can't have kids.
Is there more, yes. But this reply is long enough.
Or are you still upset that homosexual can get married?
I vote yes on SSM, but I certainly didn't vote yes to everything that has come after from the other communities piggy backed off the gay community that have nothing to do with being gay or SSM. Pronouns and gender neutral language to name a few that in some western counties can now land you in jail if not applied as prescribed.
The rights allotted to the gay community is the same as those for every day Australians. In some circumstance, the gay community has special rights that non gay citizens don't have. What is your point?
Name one. I wont wait because you cant. Literally there is not a single law that provides homosexual people with a right that straight people do not have.
Lol.. Heres one for you, remember how you said "(presumably straight and probably white and male)". According to you and your mindset, this somehow is a point of contention and somehow doesn't allot a equal voice for this demographic over anything thats related to gay.. why?
LOL, You dont even understand what you are arguing about. The point is that white, straight and male is the default position. You see something that accords the white, straight, male position and you dont even notice. But see something that hints at homosexuality and suddenly its 'stop throwing the gay agenda in my face'.
Except you seem to have the view that gay people being recognised as gay is shoving it in your face. So anything that is straight = fine, not being shoved in my face. Gay = shoved in my face.
Funny how one isnt gay and is seen lesser than in a discussion about all things gay for being straight, while the opposite occurs for those who can't have kids.
Homosexual people can certainly have kids. You know women can be homosexual? You know that if you adopt a kid then you might have an interest in what that kid does in school? Or are you now arguing that adoptive parents are not real parents? Or are you against women who are not married to a man having children? I'm not really sure, but you have quite a few odd views of life
Are you also sick of the various ethnic parades or festivals being held, or other festivals that happen every day for different interest groups? We live in a capitalist society where most events are exploited by organisations to make money so this is no different.
How are gay people celebrating a once in a lifetime event really affecting you apart from promoting diversity, freedom and pride. These events are about visibility so that one day we won't need to march or fight for the same rights as straight people, not just in laws but in better understanding and acceptance by society at large. Judging by the comments here and in other places homophobia is still widespread and clearly shows the continued need for these events.
Are you also sick of the various ethnic parades or festivals being held, or other festivals that happen every day for different interest groups?
If it was in my face at the same level I'm sure i would be. Hell i get just as sick as political advertising before an election but instead of it being a few months its now an all year. Just because people are sick of gay community advertising, doesn't mean they are sick of or dislike gay people.
We live in a capitalist society where most events are exploited by organisations to make money so this is no different.
Not when said organisation is making out they stand for a set of morals and principles that concludes or never shown when the same company exists in the middle east. That's not capitalism, that's you lying and faking it.
These events are about visibility so that one day we won't need to march or fight for the same rights as straight people, not just in laws but in better understanding and acceptance by society at large.
So you are not just satisfied with equal rights? The gay community already has a wide acceptance. Its completely unrealistic to think you will get 100% acceptance.
Add to that, You have no more rights about how a person should feel about the gay community than how a religion has a say about the gay people. You can't force people to like or accept you (be it gay or any other matter) and it's not realistic to do so because I'm sure you would in the same light not accept what other cultures deem normal in certain parts of the world (eg.. Child brides, Incest marriage, circumcision, having multiple wives.. ect)
What outcome are you hoping for or seeking? Can you narrow it down than what you have already said?

As stated earlier, its advertising and people get sick of that.. especially when it's overbearing, not necessary or lacks taste. You might be surprised to learn I voted yes on SSM. There is more to a person if they are gay or straight. For some gay people and the gay community, being gay has become their whole identity and I don't see that as being healthy because there is so much more to life than who you want to sleep with or marry.
Like the Biblical narrative, the Quran states that Lut's messages were ignored by the inhabitants of the cities, and Sodom and Gomorrah were subsequently destroyed. The destruction of the cities is traditionally presented as a warning against homosexuality.
Perhaps some people are fearful of God's wrath.
Luckily, those books are fiction!
The original edition ended with “and then I woke up.”
Doesn't cover my area, ironically not very inclusive.
I thought the parade route ran right through the heart of Herpadurkastan?
Nice. Was wondering when the next decent promo would be as the return of the footy season promo was a let down compared to past promos.
Even my cash is dressed up for worldpride 💸💸💸
Can it stack with anything else? $15 kinda covers the delivery/service fee.
Pick a place with under $1 delivery fee. Anything else requires promos that don’t stack
Best value is Coles and shop the half price specials.
Tried one, so normally $31.50
Delivery Fee
A$8.99
Service Fee
A$3.15
Discount
-A$15.00
Total
A$28.64
So kinda meh…
Can't do pick up?
Best to combine this with DashPass (if you haven’t signed up for the free trial) which will remove the delivery fee plus pay using DoorDash GC (10-20% cashback at times) which should cover the service fee
This! Or buy stuff that never/rarely go on special like deli items
Is there a way to add the code to your account so you can use later?

Thanks OP

Nice to know only Sydney people can celebrate with discounts.
No way to hack this like was possible with menulog (set postcode to 2000)?
I support gay rights if I get a 50% discount for sure.

Not available - might have been cancelled.
Not available anymore :( Was just working a few minutes ago.
No longer working, there were no other t&cs but I'd say they figured out this was being used by more than their intended audience lol
I'll try it again a bit later and let you guys know if it comes back up
Guess the sponsorship/bar tab ran out
