Lucky Charms won’t just be at the end of the rainbow anymore. It’ll be right up in front, toeing the line for gay activists and their agenda.
According to The Huffington Post, General Mills just announced that Lucky Charms – with little rainbow marshmallows – will be the face for a new gay pride campaign, called #LuckyToBe.
“General Mills has come out in support of the gay community for Pride,” wrote HuffPo’s Christopher Rudolph, “and what better way to show their love than with the Lucky Charms marshmallow rainbow?”
The new gay-agenda campaign “encourages people with Pride to tweet and post online their reasons for why they're prideful using the hashtag #LuckyToBe.”
In fact, General Mills sent a press release to GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation), which made it pretty clear that GM is jumping on the gay bandwagon wholeheartedly. “We're celebrating Pride month with whimsical delight, magical charms, and two new rainbow marshmallows,” said the #LuckyToBe campaign. “If you're lucky enough to be different, we're celebrating you.”
HuffPo’s Rudolph celebrated the new campaign by linking to it and encouraging his readers to support the movement: “Don't forget to have a second bowl of Lucky Charms before heading out to your Pride festivities this weekend!” he declared.
General Mills’ pandering to the ever-more-popular gay crowd makes economic sense, given Rudolph’s reaction. After all, they don’t want to suffer the fate of Chick-Fil-A and get splattered with liberal media vitriol for supporting traditional marriage.
Then again, General Mills is joining a long line of big companies who have come out of the closet to play to the gays by supporting same-sex marriage, including Starbucks, Nabisco (Oreo), Macy’s, the Girl Scouts, and Target. After all, they’ve got the mass news media on their side, and that’s a pretty hefty marketing advantage.
So maybe, to continue to “celebrate” this push in favor of all-things-gay. Lucky Charms should add L, G, B, and T shapes to the cereal mix and change it’s catchphrase from “magically delicious” to “openly gay.”
An odd choice for a company that sells so much breakfast cereal to so many young parents, I agree. GM better ramp-up its pet treats division.
Someone needs to capture this idiocy into some sort of smart phone application that lists the offending corporation's product brand names. As each new boneheaded corporate pronouncement hits the news, a new update is added.
Just more proof that homosexuality is a mental disorder and homosexuals are pedophiles as they cannot control their sexual behaviors.
Does the leprechaun wear that hat so his husband has somewhere to set his latté?
Just e mailed them. Ive been eating plain Cheerios EVERY morning for 40 straight years. I’m sure I’ll find an alternative.
Chick fil A gift certs make a very nice gift. I’ve bought quite a few and given them to young people. The food (and other things) is more wholesome at Chik fil A!
Hey now! Quisp was fine.
Quake was the guy that seemed like he was over compensating for something...
* You guys are making me want to never, ever go near a box of cereal again.*
It makes it really, really frightening to imagine what the prizes might be!
The direct approach only clogs up the corporate e-mail and switchboard. Mention the word "boycott" in a few online investment forums and your message will fall on the right ears a lot sooner.
“I’d have thought Fruity Pebbles the more logical choice.”
Or maybe Cocoa Puffs.
I have eaten my last box of Lucky Charms. The box of Trix I am currently finishing also will be my last.
You got that right.
All this time I thought he was just Irish ...
...and they sucked.
Now they really do.
Fortunately for me my mom went on a health-food kick in the early 70’s and banned sugary cereals from the house. I lost my taste for it as a result, and have never regained it.
They pack some fudge in every box.
say it anit so! I guess Luck Charms is now a Gay Food Product. I will have to go with Capt. Crunch or is it Commander Crunch—at least he isn’t Gay—but there still is his relation ship with his first mate—Seadog.
“First they want to get into the cereal bowls of little boys - next it’ll be their pants.”
That is the mission of the homosexual agenda. Recruitment.
Bestiality, necrophilia and pedophilia will be next. It’s
what I’ve been saying all along, the democrat party is the
party of perversion and ignorance.
