I said nothing about getting out. In everyone's life they make decisions, what car to buy, what food to eat,what friends to have and so on. Those decisions have consequences, some good some bad some indifferent. You made the decision to live where you are. Maybe the parades were going on at the time you moved in, maybe they weren't. Doesn't really matter. You obviously like living where you are and unless someone is in some manner forcing you to watch the parade then you make the decision to be there when the parade is going on. I would have to say the parade doesn't bother you as much as you want us to believe it does or you would find a place more to your liking.
As for the "rabbit hole" thing. Not real sure what that's supposed to mean. Can you explain what it means to you?
And how does any of what you posted change the fact that residents where I live are forced to tolerate a parade that centers exclusively on a group of people and their beliefs and lifestyle?
Look, humans haven't invented the level of spin sufficient to excuse away the facts here. The agenda, lifestyle, dress, sexual antics, etc., is FORCED upon the people living in the area during the parade and weekend festival.
The only way to avoid the goings on is to abandon your home for the weekend. Exactly how do you want to explain that fact?
