Dear unsuccessful homophobic boycotters,
Let me start off by trying to figure out your timeline of unsuccessful boycotts. Or at least try and remember all of them.
I remember you unsuccessfully boycotted Target a while back for having gender neutral bathrooms. You know, like the ones in your house where you mom and dad and sister and brother defecated in every day. But, for some reason the term “gender neutral” puts fear into you, so you boycotted Target. As you would say, to protect the kids.
Then I remember you unsuccessfully boycotted the movie Beauty And The Beast. Ahhhh, a tale as old as time. But I seem to remember a gay character in the movie, so that was it for you. You boycotted it for the kids. That is what you claimed. I mean, the movie did extremely well, but still, I think the boycott was mentioned on FOX five thousand times.
Then you unsuccessfully boycotted M&M’s. They had an equal pay campaign for men and women. Nope, not for you. So you decided to ditch the candy and go for Skittles. Well, until you realized Skittles was a rainbow.
Then you unsuccessfully boycotted Target again. Maybe twice is a charm. I think this was for having “Gender Neutral” clothes. So basically, they had clothes anyone can wear. But the kids would be damaged in your eyes. So no more Target.
Can forget the unsuccessful Disney boycott. Pretty sure it was because they said gay. But that is not why you boycotted Disney. It was to protect kids, right. It seems to be the main reason you boycott everything.
And then you unsuccessfully boycotted Bud Light, CNN, BLM, CRT, Colin Kaepernick, The Voice, Delta Airlines, Dr. Fauci, Ford, Ghostbusters, Sold Out Hamilton, Wonder Woman, “Happy Holidays”, Kathy Griffin, and Keurig. Oh wow, we cannot forget about those coffee machines being thrown everywhere.
But I do not want to talk about the long long lines of unsuccessful boycotts you have had. I want to talk about your current unsuccessful one. It is of target for the third (maybe more) time. I believe this is because someone saw a pride shirt. Or was it rainbow shorts? I know someone with tattoos all over his face made a rap song about it. A few TikTik accounts as well.
So let me be clear about a couple of things. You need to stop saying you care about kids. Every boycott, whether it is a drag show or a teacher who has a LGBTQ flag in their room, is about the kids in your eyes,
You do not give a fuck about kids.
You care about being a homophobic asshole.
If you cared about kids, why not boycott guns at Walmart? Gun deaths among children have risen 50% over the last two years. Over 2500 kids die from guns a year now. Not one time have you mentioned that in a boycott.
If you cared about kids, you would boycott beer. No, not because Dylan Mulvaney made a short thirty second video promoting Bud Light. But maybe the fact that over 7 million kids live with an alcoholic parent, which leads to abuse.
If you cared about kids, you would want them educated. You would want them to learn about the history around them. But no, you vote people who tirelessly fight to keep people dumb. And it is a shame.
You worry about drag shows, yet over 4,000 abuse allegations were made against priests in America.
Pronouns insult you. Not the names of the mass shooters in schools.
And now, you think that yelling and screaming about a Pride shirt will save kids.
No, see, including everyone makes us better, not worse. And you are the worst.
You do not give a fuck about kids. Or women. You claim to be pro-life. What life do you give a fuck about other than your own? None other than controlling a woman’s body.
None.
And here we are. You yell at Colin Kaepernick when he kneels then vote in those who cut veteran spending. You scream mental illness when you vote those who do not cap medication.
You insult people who just want to be happy in their own body. You try and humiliate them. You attack marginalized groups in the guise of protecting kids. Saving women.
None of that is true.
It is sick you keep boycotting places because you cannot seem to grasp that a man can love a man. A woman can love a woman. A woman can be born in the wrong body and someone wants to be called the correct pronoun.
Well, your boycotts will keep being unsuccessful.
Oh I am sure you will pull that FOX headline that this company lost blah blah blah in the amount of time because someone with a Suburban tattoo on his nose hates trans people. Well, I have news for you.
Target will still be here. So will the LGBTQ community. So will women. So will minorities. And you will just need to deal with it.
Because your hatred will not get you into heaven.
It will just cause people like myself and others to show more love.
And I look forward to your next unsuccessful boycott,
With love for everyone,
Tony Posnanski

This is really a spot on take of the ridiculous antics from a small but vocal group of a##holes. Thanks for sharing Tony!
This is outstanding.
