Far-right podcast host Joey Mannarino announced he would be “dumping out my Frosted Flakes” over its association with Mulvaney and switching to Froot Loops. He did not seem to realize that both cereal brands are owned by Kellogg’s, so he’s not actually sending his money somewhere else.
Well…
switching to Froot Loops
I love the irony that he went with the queerest named cereal as a replacement.
One of the great intellectual giants of his generation, that one.
My favorite Joey Mannarino plotline was when he tried to organize a boycott of Chick-Fil-A of all things for being too woke.
I think we should start figuring out ways to get the NRA to post some lines of support for LGBTQ+ gun owners now.
Farms tend to be rural… Rural communities tend to be conservative. How are “Conservatives” going to run out of things to eat when they literally grow food?
The hell is this article supposing? That Tony the Tiger owns all food? This type of editorialization is stupid. Who cares that ANYBODY boycotted what amount to sugar soup?
Its not literal. Its just poking fun at the fact that culture-war-conservatives are boycotting more and more things for dumb reasons
So boycotting (and suing) cake shops for not making gay marriage cakes… this is any different how?
You can’t shit on the other side for something yours is doing too and act holier than thou.
All this serves is to antagonize them and divides everyone more… And makes people like me hate both of your parties.
Every day my Polish Citizenship looks better. Everyone looks more childish every day in this country.
So boycotting (and suing) cake shops for not making gay marriage cakes… this is any different how?
the key difference is it’s good for people who refuse to respect basic human rights to be boycotted and socially ostracized for doing so. conservatives, meanwhile, pretty much exclusively do boycotts because they’re mad they can’t restrict other people’s human rights
You’re attempting to restrict the rights for an artist to choose their art… Somehow that’s different? That’s very delusional thinking. It is literally the same thing. You’re just treating it special because you happen to agree with one and not the other, so you’re refusing to look at it from a neutral standpoint.
If the left can boycott a cake shop for not wanting to generate art that has certain motifs, then the right 100% should be able to boycott companies for depictions that also have certain motifs.
This is literally equivalent. And if you’re mad about the right treating you like shit because you harbor the former belief then you shouldn’t be the people push the latter problem on others.
If I discriminate at work, I’ll get fired. If I don’t discriminate at work, I won’t get fired. This is not a double-standard. It’s THE standard. Pretending otherwise just emboldens discrimination.
Do you really think that’s what the article was saying? Their boycotting farms? I guess you also think they are boycotting ranches, and fisheries too? Or many… just maybe… the author was using something so common we have name for it? Hyperbole
You may want to read my post again.
Boycotting sugar soup is not “running out of things to eat”.
Nowhere did I say that they’re boycotting farms. Wouldn’t make sense since I asserted that they run most rural farms.
they then proceed to both create the Streisand effect for said product… followed by usually purchasing said product to destroy it in internet videos for other chumps.
“Let them eat cock”
A lot might already but have too much internalised homophobia to admit it 👀
So, to be clear, they’re concerned that the furry is associating with trans people?
