feels like a weird moral panic to center this around kink. I understand and wholeheartedly support wanting a family-friendly pride (speaking as someone who was kinda uncomfortable at pride as a young child) but "family-friendly" vs. "kink" is kind of a false dichotomy

@pareinoia it's hard to shame participants of an event whose goal is to lessen it.
So people hyper focus the stigma on specific parts, hoping the dissidents listen and don't repeat their behavior.
