Oh, and what the hell does that have to do with backpacking? I mean, backpacking apparel is pretty similar male or female, and none of it looks like that….

So now you have bomb threats in Utah over the pride displays and bomb threats in Ohio because they think Target abandoned the LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ community.

North Face went lifestyle many years back anyway.
Just didn't know it was that lifestyle.

Let's just hope they don't make Jesus dark-skinned. That would be a step too far.
He's the son of God. And God is reptilian.

@89th said in Target is stupid:
To be fair, the fact that the product was called a Gay Nutlicker was a little redundant.
Not so.
- It’s Gay Nutcracker, not Gay Nutlicker
- Even if it’s Gay Nutlicker, the licker may be licking nuts under duress and therefore not gay in the happy sense.
- Even if it’s Gay Nutlicker, the licker may be some one other than a human male and therefore not gay in the sexual orientation sense.
- Even if it’s Gay Nutlicker, the nut (the object of licking) may be a food, a fastener, or an ideologue (e.g., “wing nut”) and therefore the word “gay” would be needed to describe the licker’s state of mind and/or orientation.

Here's a Christmas present for people who don't want the gay nutcracker. A hetero cracker, who's also a nut!

Speaking of things that nobody gives a shit about, I strongly object to the implication that Saint Patrick was Irish. The only reason he was green was from sea-sickness crossing the Irish Sea, probably from Lancashire, which is where all the best people are from.
Every freaking year.

And what about Palladius?
See you're Irish now, you need to know these things.

Some people don't see the obvious, until they get hit between the eyes with a 2x4. I've seen it in relationships, money and now, the degradation of society.
And if y'all don't think this is all a slippery slope and a defining of deviance downward until it contributes mightily to the eventual downfall of American society, you're either of the groups trying to reformulate society for the worse or you're dumber than a bag of hammers.

Country-wide store closures from rampant thefts. Carjackings and fatal assaults in downtown areas. Police assaults. Assaults on police. Cancel-culture kangaroo courts. Political hacks. And now, rampant anti-semitism that Godwin's Law can't even temper because Hamas is actually worse and nobody cares.
But hey. We have guy bikinis now.
Great job, liberals!
I really don't see how you can possibly argue "yes there's bad on both sides" anymore. The tiki-torch whites have no agency. Meanwhile, the wokes are laying blame on whites for keeping us bound in the fifties while they're doing everything possible to bring us back to 1938.

I don't think gay nutcrackers have anything to do with Hamas or people robbing stores. I think we need to tackle the problems that are actually important. Recognizing that there are perfectly decent gay people who may or may not want to buy a nutcracker with a rainbow on it has nothing to do with this.
And describing anybody who isn't a heterosexual as some kind of pervert is just plain fucking dumb.
People who rob stores should be prosecuted. People who kill children should be eradicated. You're not going to do either of these things whining about a gay nutcracker. If you don't like it, don't buy it.
Incidentally, gay people I know think the rainbow capitalism like this is a rather stupid and cynical marketing ploy. It's got nothing to do with gay rights
