Corporate Pride Month Silence: A 2025 Trend?

Pride Month 2025: A Year of Corporate Silence? Major companies largely absent from Pride celebrations this year, raising questions about authenticity of past support. One notable exception, Halo, posted Pride content but swiftly disabled comments. Experts weigh in on the significance of this trend and its implications for LGBTQ+ inclusivity. "The fact that companies are so silent this year, after years of showy support, is telling," says one LGBTQ+ activist. This year's muted response contrasts sharply with the enthusiastic displays in previous years, prompting renewed discussion about corporate social responsibility and the true meaning of Pride Month. The muted response from most companies, coupled with Halo's actions, underscores the need for greater transparency and genuine commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusion.
