There’s a holiday nearly everyday celebrating something… not every one of them needs an event.,

Doctor Aphra (and her Droids) get added

I don’t think it’ll happen, but Aphra and the droids would be a great addition! They could bring a little punch to the Scoundrel/Droid factions too, but regardless, it would be fun to play them. Speaking of, Krssantan? Sana? There are some cool characters from the comics to add, not to mention novels.

I'll boycott SWGOH for the month if they do something like this. I see no logic, reason, nor purpose in "celebrating" how certain people like to have sex.

Tell me you don’t understand Pride without telling me you don’t understand Pride.

Nobody is celebrating how other people have sex. Pride month (and other similar events for race, women, etc) is about celebrating a group of people who are (and have been) systemically discriminated against and who deserve recognition and free expression. Straight people are never told to “keep their sexualities to themselves” whenever they mention their partner or show any physical affection in public. Straight people aren’t disproportionately prosecuted, imprisoned, or abused. Straight people never fear for their lives when their parents learn they’re straight.

Besides that, Pride Month isn't just about sexuality, it's also about gender identity.
