The flag specifically was not defended. The person and the right to the various beliefs of the hundreds of people creating The Chosen were defended. The posession and placement of that pride flag seemed selfish or ignorant and created quite a stir on something incredibly popular about Jesus. The production company didn't go full retard or anything close to it like some possible shills would like everyone to believe. That event was disappointing but it's naive to think every person in a broader group will consistently represent the whole perfectly. The article is a good take on what went down. Angel Studios is not perfect but they're a long way from DS.
Seems to me that a production company has the right to ban any and all external influences including the gay pride flag, political clothes/pics/slogans, right to life/abortion rights apparel or slogans. If you remain neutral and an all that seems to be the best route for any and all businesses.
There was a trans pride flag photographed on their set last summer. Not making an accusation. Just pointing out that it was there and it was later defended by the production company. https://www.christianpost.com/news/the-chosen-actors-slams-critic-of-pride-flag.html
