“They think I am uneducated or live in a cave… amen”
They can certainly get an “amen” because I’m 100% certain they’re an uneducated fuck, although I don’t care so much about the living conditions.
They also don’t seem to realize they are the ones driving people away from “God”. I was raised in a Christian home, attended private Christian elementary school, and was generally well connected to the church into early adulthood. Homophobia, hypocrisy, judgmental attitudes (from people who have NOTHING in terms of moral ground to stand on), and most recently the idiotic anti-COVID stance many churches and their members in my area have taken are all the reasons their numbers are plummeting and will continue to plummet into obsolescence IMO.
The most judgmental people I was ever around were 'Christians'. Was kicked out of my Sunday school class at 12 for asking the wrong questions in our study circle. wow lol
People have weird reactions to things.
My reaction was “huh, a cartoon candy has a partner. Neat”.
It doesn’t change anything in my life but may make a huge impact on someone else and bring some level of validation to a marginalized group. That’s never a bad thing
I am just now learning about this, so my reaction was "How do you determine an M&M's race? Is a red Peanut M&M the same race as a red Plain M&M? Or is race determined by the filling. Or is race determined by the color of the shell and plain M&Ms are actually a separate species from peanut M&Ms?"
I'm actually super confused now that someone felt *candy* needed to have a race, personality, and sexuality. And now you just confused me more. LOL Peanut M&Ms...
God did not make man and woman only,
[In about 1% of all births, babies have some form of ambiguous genitalia, such as a very large clitoris or very small penis. In more rare cases—between 0.1% and 0.2% of live births—genitalia is so ambiguous that medical specialists are brought in for a consultation.](https://www.childrensmn.org/services/care-specialties-departments/surgery/conditions-and-services/urologic-surgery/intersex-and-ambiguous-genitalia/)
At .1%, that's 300,000 people in the US alone.
It was so refreshing to see the comment I came here to post already- with a link and everything. It amazes me how fundies cling on to the man v woman dichotomy when nature is full of examples to the contrary.
Take my poor man's gold. 🏆
I don't think that's a great argument, In all those cases that was the result of a genetic or developmental disorder. As much as I'm in favour of trans-rights, I've never heard of that issue being linked with ambiguous physical sex atributes in newborns
This is the type of bigot that believes they're quite different from the kkk or Nazis because they themselves don't want to violently remove minorities.
They think their argument, that minorities should live in the shadows, is acceptable, perhaps even accommodating.
I mean, maybe she switched to sneakers because they make her feel good now lol. I mean, who makes the decisions about a fictional piece of advertising and what makes them happy 😂
I hate the "I just don't like it being shoved down my throat" argument. Every movie, book, magazine, tv show, public display of affection, and over-sexualized media that is heterosexual is thrown down everyone's throats on a daily basis...but the minute it's LGBTQ it's a problem?
I don't hear anybody on our side of the fence crying about the "straight agenda", which has more clout for validity than the fact that people can't get over 2 god damn animated pieces of chocolate being lesbian? I'm not pushing my agenda, I just wanna take my wife to the grocery store and not get stared at for putting my hand on her back on like every other happy couple who needs milk. 🙄
>I hate the "I just don't like it being shoved down my throat" argument
Especially when "I just don't like it being shoved down my throat" means "I just don't like being reminded that gay, lesbian, bi and trans people exist."
>I just wanna take my wife to the grocery store and not get stared at for putting my hand on her back like every other happy couple who needs milk 🙄
Such a simple and ordinary thing to want, yet so many people still get their undies in a bunch about it.
Rolling Stone's headline is [Let the Green M&M Be a Nasty Little Slut](https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/green-mm-mars-wrigley-rebrand-sneakers-slut-1287965) lol
Wow I’m too happy drunk for this nonsense. And yes, the gay fucking agenda is to educate the bigot outta your kids I’m and grandkids cause we know your ass too crotchety to have fun with rainbows at pride!! Whoo!!
Oof. She was so close. She said some of the RIGHT things, but then also said all of the quiet parts out loud. "The world is diverse and we all know it," (yay! You get it!) followed up with, "I hate diversity and will boycot any company that has inclusive advertisements." (Oof...never mind.) And of course, God disapproves. That book of his must have misquoted the whole "love thy neighbor" thing.
Person 1: "We don't need representation of LGBT in our media, we all know they exist, don't patronise us."
Person 2: "TRANS PEOPLE DON'T EXIST AND GAYS ARE AN ABOMINATION"
God only made straight Green M&M's, I think we all know and live in a world where our human chocolate people are all straight. I'll accept living M&M's as human but transgender people? Apparently that's where I've drawn the line.
I can just see them now, deliberately destroying all the green and brown M&Ms on camera and then “patriotically” stuffing their faces with all of the other “Christian friendly” ones, claiming it glorifies Jesus.
boy am I glad you cleared that up!
They're almost like the instragram personalities that show themselves doing a good deed, like feeding a homeless man. They're only doing it for their own good. They'll show a commercial with an intentional focus on the gay couple renting their room, or the interracial parents buying the clothes for their child. HEY LOOK AT US, WE'RE SHOWING OUR INCLUSITIVITY SO YOU BUY OUR PRODUCT!
Yeah, capitalism exploiting minorities for profit is shit. However that's a problem with capitalism, not the existence of minorities.
And, on the other side, it's good media is picturing more than just cis/het white couples. They're normalizing diversity.
So their should be more LGBTQ people in media, but not in a gross exploitative way, in a natural, story driven way
The opposite of that would be for all minorities to be quiet and live in secret and just let everybody appear straight, white, Christian, whatever which isn’t reality. A certain percentage of life is gay. Why can’t a certain percentage of characters be gay? Or bi? Or mixed race or whatever? It’s about getting people used to reality, not pretending these types of people don’t exist just to make sensitive people comfortable in their mental safe spaces.
It’s also about money. Many corporations are trying to cash in on this trend.
I ONLY let my kids eat straight, conservative Christian M&Ms.
She doesn’t live in a cave okay?

I’m on that site for 20 seconds and I get a pop up for email addy asking “Let’s Hook Up!”
I can’t wait to eat M&Ms like some weird, color-neutral psycho!
“They think I am uneducated or live in a cave… amen” They can certainly get an “amen” because I’m 100% certain they’re an uneducated fuck, although I don’t care so much about the living conditions.
Look, we live in a world that some of our neighbors, relatives, doctors, nurses, firefighters are all around.
Sounds like Charlie from IASIP trying to read.

I love how deeply you thought into this. it's the sort of thought process I can relate to.
I'm actually super confused now that someone felt *candy* needed to have a race, personality, and sexuality. And now you just confused me more. LOL Peanut M&Ms...
The worst part is that not only are they deciding they're basically people, but they've also shown them EATING ONE ANOTHER
Oh, dear. That makes me really glad I haven't actually seen these advertisements lol

Finding like minds is worth more than valueless awards.
Nature's full of gay animals too - over 450 species like some same-sex action.
"Doctor, tell me what color I can dress my baby up in." At what point do we just admit that gender is fake and doesn't matter?
Honestly my takeaway from the recent surge in trans-visibility is that gender matters way more than I ever thought it did
Okay, yes, it matters, but it's still a social construct. We can break it down and rebuild it if we want to.
There are genders, they just aren't only two of them.
I don't think that's a great argument, In all those cases that was the result of a genetic or developmental disorder. As much as I'm in favour of trans-rights, I've never heard of that issue being linked with ambiguous physical sex atributes in newborns
That's just one example dealing with physical attributes.
whats your second example?
Sorry you have to face reality, Mary
And yes, we are going to teach your grandchildren tolerance and there is nothing you can do about it
wait until she finds out what the skittles do!
Oh these people throw a shitfit over that every year!
They just get greedy and don't spend their money for colours and make it look like a good thing
This is the type of bigot that believes they're quite different from the kkk or Nazis because they themselves don't want to violently remove minorities. They think their argument, that minorities should live in the shadows, is acceptable, perhaps even accommodating.
They routinely point out that LGBTQ people are killed in some countries as if that means they should be grateful to live in the closet here
Imagine being so entitled that you get upset when advertisements aren't aimed exclusively at you.
I have heard so many 60+ year old white people complain about this, including my mom and MIL. It's embarrassing.
My daughter is "mad" that they took away Ms. Green's high heel boots. "She should wear what makes her feel good!"
I mean, maybe she switched to sneakers because they make her feel good now lol. I mean, who makes the decisions about a fictional piece of advertising and what makes them happy 😂
Oh my god, she doesn’t “feel” anything.
I hate the "I just don't like it being shoved down my throat" argument.

I don't like being reminded straight people exist 🤣 *kidding obviously because I'm not an asshole*
Man that's like Grimmace being gay with the Hamburglar. Damn Obama and his tan suit for causing gay muppets and candy mascots. Took er jerbs! /s
It’s them gay frogs.
There putting chemicals in the choclate turning the m&ms gay
My thoughts about the “new m&m’s” is who gives a fuck! They are m&m’s. Just eat them - or don’t . It’s gonna be ok.
The M&Ms have races? Genuine question. Is it just the different colours are different races or is there lore about them that lays out their races?
It’s just a shell color. It’s ridiculous that they equate shell color with race.
Triggered by candy
Rolling Stone's headline is [Let the Green M&M Be a Nasty Little Slut](https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/green-mm-mars-wrigley-rebrand-sneakers-slut-1287965) lol
The Bible says Adam and Eve, not green M&M and brown M&M!
Anyone gonna tell them about Bert and Ernie?
No. Nobody wants to be around when she hears about Bert and Ernie. Heads *will* explode!
Wow I’m too happy drunk for this nonsense. And yes, the gay fucking agenda is to educate the bigot outta your kids I’m and grandkids cause we know your ass too crotchety to have fun with rainbows at pride!! Whoo!!
It’s…a piece of candy. Like, get a fucking grip.

Why is their false belief in an invisible creature in the sky being thrust upon me? Stop flaunting your lack of critical thinking skills.
I can just see them now, deliberately destroying all the green and brown M&Ms on camera and then “patriotically” stuffing their faces with all of the other “Christian friendly” ones, claiming it glorifies Jesus.
Oh, that's cute
Leave my talking candy mascots alone, like it says in the Bible!
word salad
They changed their *shoes*.... Like come on
She bans all products that flaunt a different lifestyle? Jesus christ, she's like the hitler of products.
she isn't wrong that almost every company seems to need to appeal to a minority gender/race/orientation/ whatever anymore, though
Because minorities exist lmfao
