Why that’s not a major media story is absolutely beyond me.   [/quote]

The Satanist is not a distributor. The Satanist is a designer that Target partnered with.  The Satanist who designed the “Satan respects pronouns” shirt is the same designer Target selected to create merchandise for this year’s pride campaign.   Your friend in that video is misrepresenting the relationship that Target has with the Satanist.  [/quote]

You are creating an issue out of nothing.  This is why people, especially the younger generations, are not voting for republicans and becoming less religious.

Target is not selling any Satanic-themed clothing in its stores, not to adults, and certainly not to children. The designer behind the merchandise is also not a "Satanist" and says the t-shirt was created to be campy and satirical-something the right-wing has shown they cannot understand.

And FWIW, the artist has been inundated with requests from others to buy their merchandise.

Congratulations, you look like a damn fool.  [/quote]

Target has lost $9B in market cap since this issue broke.

Your problem is that you think people have to be religious ans hard right to think it's demented to dress babies as Satanic trans activists.

As long as the left continues to talk about people who cringe at or are repulsed by this kind of stuff like they are evangelicals, they will continue to alienate people. The evangelical hard right does not to $9B worth of damage. This is the mainstream who is like, hey I'm good with LGBTQ stuff but I draw the line at satanic trans babies. [/quote]

Honestly, PP, this "satanic" stuff is so normie now that it's almost too basic. It's tongue in cheek. It's the tiniest bit salty. You sound like Church Lady - it's just crazy out of touch. [/quote]

Ok, give us your explanation of the $9B loss in market cap. Go on. [/quote]

Do you realize how the stock market works?  Target stock is actually trending up this morning.  [/quote]

So just FYI, Benny Johnson is a perfect example of someone who is SO interesting and fun for people who are Very Online -a and just doesn't exist outside of the Very Online world. If you're citing Benny Johnson, you're in a weird little MAGA loop.

But, as we keep saying - the more you stay in this strange little padded walls universe talking to each other and sure you're speaking to and for everyone, the less your chances of winning elections. Not no chance - I'll never be that cocky - but you lessen the chances for sure.[/quote]

You folks love to slam the messenger even when he is presenting facts.  
Do a search.

We get it. You hate gay people and think they should be hidden away so you don't have to think about them.

Well guess what. Gay people exist. They are human beings just like you are. And they have a right to exist and to live their lives. So what if there is merchandise geared toward them. Completely insane to be losing your sh!t because there's merchandise connected to the LGBTQ community. WTF. There's also merchandise geared toward hunters. And Disney lovers. And left-handers - does that freak you out? Left-handers are outliers, too.[/quote]

[b]Most people had no issues with gay people and fully supported their rights until the TQ latched onto the LGB and there was a big shift in the direction of the movement.[/b] Now nearly 20% of Gen Z identity as LGBQT which is unheard of in earlier generations. Transgender people used to be extremely rare but it has sky rocketed over the past 5 years especially among teenage girls. You have to be an idiot to believe there is no social contagion going on. Males are now competing in women's sports and winning women's awards, ridiculous sayings like uterus havers, pronouns in bios. Companies are creating LGBQT merchandise geared specifically for kids including babies and parents are sick of their kids constantly being exposed to this stuff. [b]There are plenty of gay people who are fed up with what has happened to their community as well with some suggesting the LGB separate from the TQ[/b]. When the pendulum swings too far in one direction it will inevitably swing back the other way.[/quote]

Yeah, no.  Gay person here.  Mainstream culture has only been accepting of gays and lesbians in the last decade.   Most of my gay friends, especially ones older than me, remember all too well of the discrimination and prejudice they experienced in the 80, 90s and early 2000's.  Seeing this same type of discrimination against transgendered people reminds us all that the homophobia from the past has never truly gone away.

Please stop patronizing us gay people, especially now that it's socially acceptable to accept us, and insinuate that we are not in favor of trans rights.  If anything, we realize that if trans people are ostracized and society accepts it, gay people will be next.  [/quote]

Then you haven't been listening to others within your community. No one is talking about denying rights to transgender people but you are mistaken if you think there isn't growing frustration.

Rob Smith?  The guy who complained about Uganda killing LGBT people and then blaming it on the "woke agenda" from the US?  No thanks.

FYI, when you search that hashtag, it yields results where is compares trans people to nazi's.  So, once again, please stop pissing on my leg and telling me it's raining. [b]Most gay people support trans rights because we are inclusive[/b], not hateful people like Rob Smith.  [/quote]

I would agree a majority of people including gay people are supportive of trans rights like being free from discrimination in housing, employment etc. Most people want adults to be able to live their lives in whatever manner is best for them. I'm sorry but many draw the line at things like Lia Thomas competing against women, young kids sterilizing themselves and women getting raped in prison. "Love is love" is a very different message than what is being pushed today which is why recent polling has shown less support for the LGBQT+ community. This is the truth whether you care to believe it or not and here's an article from the Washington Post showing how most Americans supports these supposed "anti-trans" laws which are really protecting women and children laws.

I notice that you clowns never tell us about your “solution” to the “trans problem.”

When do you start rounding them up & sending them to camps? [/quote]

These comments are precisely what caused me to stop supporting “trans rights”. Is that your intention? No one is talking about camps, they are talking about preventing males from being in women’s sports and prisons.[/quote]

Yes, we know. You're obsessed with women's sports. WE KNOW. You're just off on your little ice floe shouting about women's sports, 24/7, while the rest of us would like children to stop getting murdered at school.[/quote]
