That happened last year. Their chairperson stood down in the aftermath. Their position remains clear as mud while #PrideAarhus picked up some of the donors, saying "See, this is what you can have if you have an apolitical pride". Both of these orgs can go in the bin. Pride started as a riot and it damn well still is a protest.
Nothing is apolitical, there's only complacency, apologetic antics, respectability BS and enabling.

Thank you #Berlin!
After the debacle that's #PrideCopenhagen, not even to mention the "apolitical #PrideAarhus" ... (w/e the fuck that is) it's been beyond refreshing to see that you can combine celebration and protest the way #Pride was meant to be. Sure #CSDBerlin was more on the party side of things but #IQPBerlin made up for that, and the vastly younger crowd on the latter is also refreshingly hopeful... until @PolizeiBerlin dissolved it!
