This trend will die out sooner or later. They really think they're getting away with this in the long term. It makes you wonder who's propping these companies up when sales drop.

Yep. Look at Gillette.

I switched to double-edged safety razors after that BS.

I think we are going to see a change over the next 6-12 months, watch as the Disney institutional shareholders lose their minds as Disney’s slate of upcoming movies all tank the way Antman 3 did - Little Mermaid remake and Peter Pan and Wendy remake are both likely to bomb. Indy V is supposed to be costing north of $300million at this point and they’re still reshooting it because the test screenings were a disaster (guess no one likes replacing Indy with Fleabag!)

Bob Iger x2 and Bob Chapek at Disney has really screwed the shareholders by siding with the groomer staff over the Florida Parental Rights Bill, losing the company its special tax status, not to mention stuff their creative teams with young, “diverse” woke women who don’t have the first clue about writing superhero or Star Wars stories (nor do they actually care). They managed to take the premier Hollywood IP, Star Wars, and turn it into a shitty streaming TV IP, and they’re very clearly heading that way with Marvel too. It’s insane.

In 2020 ZZZtheyZZZ printed more money than ever existed in history. That debt has been transferred to the taxpayers yet ZZZtheyZZZ get to decide who gets the money.

Nike: "That dude loves our bras!"

Well I know who isn't making good bras then if you need someone male to sell them lol. I'll stick with companies that know what a woman is. You know, who they're making their product FOR.

What? Their bras are clearly the best. All that wonderful manic jumping around that girl did and absolutely no boob bounce to be seen! They must be the best sports bras ever. I'm going to rush straight out and buy some for my 32Es and book into a trampoline class with confidence!

Yeah, it’s hard to see how they thought this was a good idea.

Just think, Oli London has said that, based on his number of followers and fans, Nike and Budweiser probably paid him $50-100k for these endorsements.

That's...really pathetic. Frustrating that it happens and is supported but what can you do beyond making your upset known and not purchasing their products?

I think there’s very little anyone can do. It seems that these marketing and advertising departments and agencies spend their time following social media and it really seems as if social media has been colonised by the trans cult. It doesn’t matter to anyone, the corporations or the media, that social media disproportionately amplifies whatever popular opinion is trending amongst the hugbox echo chambers - fucking flat earth theory trended a few years ago and people were suddenly actually doubting the shape of the earth, and now a lot of those same people are talking about pronouns, front holes and female penises.

Well, yeah.

Pander to the crazies, they'll be sated and the sane people won't care.

Pander to the sane people, they won't care, but the crazies will scream so loud the whole world will hear them. They're crazy enough to make it their personal mission in life to see you out of work for this, they're obsessed enough to FIND someone who'll ruin your life no matter what they do- your boss, your boss's boss, all the way up to the board of directors who say "shut up shut up don't care don't care OH MY GOD I DON'T CARE fire that peasant before the whining affects our stock prices", and they're terminally online enough that they truly believe this is the greatest civil rights battle of our time and they'll make statues and name high schools after them for what they did on this day.

Nike has sparked fury after trans social media star Dylan Mulvaney posted a series of paid sponsorships for the sports company's women's clothing line.

Mulvaney, 26, posted videos and photos on her Instagram page Tuesday in which she modeled a pair of Nike leggings and a sports bra, and tagged Nike Women while linking to the products' pages.

Men and women alike took to Twitter to voice their anger that Mulvaney - who was born a male but identifies as female - was being given coveted sponsorships for the prominent brands women's line. The postings noted that they were paid sponsorships.

Notice they couldn't give him their female targeted shoes though. https://imgur.com/a/zl9lwsl

[–]OuroborosTheory 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

in fact, I think Dylan should be encouraged to talk about "Barbie pouches"

[–]Newzok 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

It looks like he's taking the piss though. Is it all a big parody?

[–]ClassroomPast6178[S] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

I don’t think so. There’s video of him on The Price is Right five years ago long before he decided to board the Troon train and he is acting like the same old hyper-camp gay twat as he is now, except now he does it in a dress.

[–]Wanderingthehalls 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

I think he was even worse in the Price is Right video than he is now. And it was filmed no more than 3 years ago as they were following Covid social distancing on the PiR set.

[–]ClassroomPast6178[S] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Ahh, ok. Still, I’m willing to bet he’s always been an obnoxious person, just now he does it in a dress and the gullible idiots in politics and the media, who have gone all in on troonery, have found themselves unable to do anything but celebrate the insufferable walking parody of humanity that he is.

He is the literal embodiment of almost everything that has gone wrong with the desire to promote “tolerance”, we’ve “tolerated” our way to Muppets in human form smearing their faeces in our faces, calling it “diversity”, and demanding that we ask for more.

His family is wealthy and well connected aren't they? His behaviour on The Price is Right was bizarre and wouldn't normally be tolerated from an ordinary guest. Especially on a show being made under strict Covid protocols. Someone arranged for him to be on that show and for him to get to do his 'act' in order to promote him. His 'girlhood' is just his next and actually successful attempt at getting famous. He's a fame whore with so little talent that his obvious connections couldn't make Dylan the gay man famous. But Dylan the girl has hit this current crazy zeitgeist and has gotten him what he's clearly always craved.

That is really, really interesting and something worthy of more investigation.
