They’re still businesses and after they go public or are sold they will follow business rules.
The be all, end all of businesses isn’t always to go public. Neither does the ownership structure of all businesses facilitate it, some are co-operatives. It would also be really hard for a business that exclusively deals in products for queer people, like a binder company, to just drop their only market.
Even when that’s true, it still means they are genuinely supporting the gay community right now. An ally behaving imperfectly doesn’t make them an enemy.
