Target has hemorrhaged roughly $10 billion from its market cap, and liberal media wants you to believe it’s because all the moderates and conservatives driving the boycott simply hate gay people. More specifically, they use the phrase “anti-LGBTQ.”
But the reality is that Target encouraged kids to be “nonbinary” — a non-scientific term gender ideologues invented — and sold products like a book instructing children on how to use preferred pronouns.
Stories played out similarly across all of media. Bud Light’s sales are down nearly 30% for endorsing Dylan Mulvaney. Mulvaney is a man who plays out his sexual kink of pretending to be a preteen girl in full view of the public, on TikTok, with an audience that is overwhelmingly young (likely even underage). What did the left say about parents and working-class people who suddenly stopped drinking Bud Light as a result? They were part of an “anti-LGBTQ” campaign.

Same goes for Major League Baseball, a sport whose fanbase is overwhelmingly working class, regular people, with young kids (who probably still collect baseball cards). When the Dodgers received blowback for inviting a drag group to perform their — frankly gross — explicit performance mocking Christianity and Christ explicitly, how did wider media characterize all of the backlash toward the Dodgers and mega-companies?

CNN called it “anti-LGBTQ,” MSNBC called it “bigotry” against the “trans community” and NBC called the “anti-LGBTQ” boycotts “threats.”
Or, you know, it could be that Dodgers fans, in Los Angeles, are overwhelmingly Hispanic, family-oriented, and CATHOLIC, and they don’t like mixing sports with scantily clad men in women’s clothing jiggling their dicks in Jesus’s face.
The pile-on continued with clothing giant Kohl’s — who told Target “Hold my Bud Light” — because they decided to release a pride collection geared toward – wait for it – babies, and then donated to LGBTQ activist organizations that promote transgender ideology to children.
Oh, but poor corporate America! Now they’re being held “hostage” and “forced” to “target LGBTQ people” because Jamie from Missoula doesn’t think her toddlers should be targeted with gender-bending onesies.
The deliberate gaslighting by liberal media to shame ordinary Americans for having values and wanting to protect their children from indoctrination isn’t about “bigotry” or hate, nor is it about being “anti-LGBTQ” – they just never expected half the country to use their voices (and wallets) again.
