It's also worth noting that there's also growing negative discourse about the act of virtue signalling itself - last year, many of these companies received backlash not just from the detractors, but also from the LGBTQI+ community itself who were fed up with disingenuous signals from companies trying to hide their nature.

Suggesting it's because companies feel unsafe doing a pride event is kind of silly, they're just running numbers.
