    They’re doing “clever” rainbow washing by forcing you to do the association with Skittles and rainbow in your head. It’s the exact same as the rest, but they can’t add the rainbow to their product, so they have to remove it instead.

      yup, just a more insidious form of rainbow-washing. look, we’re such good allies that we’re not gonna use rainbows in our advertising this month. if they were truly against exploiting pride for marketing they could just… not. nobody is gonna care that the rainbow candy still has rainbows in June lmao
