Those cities are still in red states and uphold the laws of those states. There is zero difference.
Nashville still bans abortions because that is state law. Its frustrating as hell that large sports franchises talk about DEI but then do events in states that act against every value they supposedly support.
I have not seen a FanFest from any blue state so I admit I may be mistaken about it being in blue states but I stand by not rewarding red states with huge events likes this. Tired of normalizing bad actors

This is a good example of why the red/blue state stereotype is so ridiculous. TwilightZone Apr 2024 #4
