On the one hand, it's really not that big a deal for large toy stores to stick all the Legos and marbles and xylophones and whatever on a shelf together. It's not particularly woke or virtue-signally to do so, it's just a shelf with those kinds of toys on it.

But on the other hand, this is government overreach. Does California really have to fucking regulate everything? That's a rhetorical question, because obviously they decided long ago that the answer is yes.

The major retailers are already woke. This is most likely intended to make people accustomed to government overreach and position them to crush anyone who tries to open an anti woke toystore.

Monopolists love socialism.

But that's what woke is; fixing problems that don't exist.

Whoa, BIGOTS, monsters. You're oppressing me. Stop. STOOOOOP. A gender-neutral aisle? How do they know they aren't already gender-neutral? Did, did, did... Did they just ASSUME the other toys' gender????????

If it were my store. I'd remove the toy aisle completely. Maybe just put toys on the end caps.

Goodbye pink aisle.

We've come full circle: first gender was all anyone cared about, now we don't want any gender ever. Ideally, wouldn't they just get their own store so we never have to mingle?
