Conservatives have been encouraging their acquaintances to continue boycotting pro-LGBTQ+ companies as many have seen a decrease in sales and stock prices.
Conservative responses poured in, with one person tweeting"we're winning" and others commending the change, but MLB toldthat the organization always planned to recognize the beginning of Pride Month on June 1. Friday marked Lou Gehrig Day, which is celebrated leaguewide, and MLB later updated its profile picture to reflect that"as was the intended plan all along."
Professional sports, particularly baseball, were pulled into the LGBTQ+ debate when the Los Angeles Dodgers issued a community hero award to California-based LGBTQ+ nonprofit The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, an"order of queer and trans nuns" that since 1979 has"devoted ourselves to community service, ministry and outreach to those on the edges, and to promoting human rights, respect for diversity and spiritual enlightenment," according to the group's website.
