I'm not sure your (and, to some extent, champdaddy's) stance on the matter is entirely realistic or fair. There are many, many different kinds of activism. Valuable advocacy takes many forms. And I can think of several good reasons not to attend or participate in Pride parades.
To present the situation as either you participate in Pride parades or you're an "apathetic kweer who should shut his cakehole" is, I think, a little too judgemental and maybe a tetch self-centred and/or narrow-minded.
