One wonders just what the impetus is for this latest rage of pandering to homosexuals in products, advertising, entertainment and in politics.

Homosexuals comprise about 2 maybe 3% of the world’s population. Just how bad is our economy where producers of products have to risk alienation by established segments of their market to get his small percentage increase?

Do they really think that no more than 1 or 2% of consumers will be turned off by “gay advertising and promotion” just to get a 1%^ bump in sales? Couple this unknown quantity effect with the rising consumer trend to cost cut using store brand generics over Brand products and you have what I think is a media and ad market con job on manufacturers. I just don’t see how they can make the numbers fit the effort, myself.

Because the next gen had thoroughly been brainwashed and bought into the Left’s (in)Tolerance garbage. Not to mention most of the advertising ‘stars’ are youngun’s themselves.

They are too afraid to be seen as anti-racial, anti-homo, anti-...... Has nothing to do with the actual percentage of the LGBT population.

As I have said before, we have to quit focusing on the 2% figure. It is not the 2% it is the 25-30% of people mostly in the cherished 18-35 year old demographic the loves all things homosexual they are aiming for. Even the conservative young people in my family, pro life, pro gun, fiscally responsible, feel this way about homosexuality. Sadly we have lost this battle. 30 years of media propaganda and public school indoctrination will be nearly impossible to reverse short of some devastating homosexual event that exposes the truth about the lifestyle and agenda. I’m not holding my breath.

The left's lock on the public school system for the past fifty years. They have successfully convinced a generation or two that it is not enough to run a business in order to generate profits. Those corporations must also be outlets of liberal social activism. Kind of "payment for the sin of making money."

It is for grooming of our boys (emasculation) and creating a tribal, “happy slavery” pagan ideology in our children, and creating emotionally charged (Reason—Virtue— ejected) useful idiots.

Marketing of Ideas has been the Way the Leftists have made women into smokers pervasive in the 20s when women normally thought that it was a vulgar, ugly habit. You can actually flip desires with the power of Marketing if you have useful idiots which public schools are deliberately pumping out.

You control the images and the Words and you can control what and how the masses “think” and what they “desire”. (Why the homosexuals promoted the “Barbie” doll to young girls in the 60s to objectify women-—to make women mutilate their own bodies and hate themselves (God’s Design) and create the hips of prepubescent boys so the homosexuals would be aroused and “change” the desires of men. Redefine “Beauty”.

It is called mass market psychology founded by Eddie Bernays in the 1920s (Freud’s nephew)-—which is being used to make perversion and vice “normal” to destroy Rule of Law (Higher Law/God’s) for base emotions——Rule of Man-—so that Good and Evil is designated by the hedonista and all Christian Ethics can be jettisoned-—the ideas which created the Age of Reason and the US Constitution. Can’t have intelligent “slaves”-—so they have to destroy Common Sense (Natural Law theory by perverting desires in boys and girls-—to make them LOVE to kill their own genetic offspring and normalize the desire of sodomizing others. It will destroy the Christian Worldview and posit the pagan, irrational, vice as “Good”.

Natural Law theory (Common Sense/Reason/Science) is ERASED in the minds of children so they are so ignorant and DUMB they will believe “snow is black” and girls are boys-—etc. for State controlled EVERYTHING (utopianism of Marx). They will be “happy slaves” of the State (Fichte 1810)—what the Germans and psychology pseudo- science has been working for for 200 years-——to Kill God and Christian Worldview (Natural Law Theory which is Common Sense and the idea of God’s Design in Nature which created the minds of Newton, Adam Smith, John Locke, etc).

They have to destroy Truth/God-—and make the irrational “normal” in children to destroy critical thinking and create tribal minds-—so the masses are easily controlled and herded and culled. Children will grow up willing to kill their own genetic offspring and euthanize any useless old eaters——and “beg” the State to take their parents —but by that time there will be no biological connections known....all biological connections will be erased like in Plato’s utopian Republic and Marx’s Brave New World Order.

We have to take back the Minds of our children-—put them back into the Natural Family and not artificial institutions for the first 7 years—away from screens-—into Real Life skills and human interactions for Common Sense and humanization-—and then not allow the Worldview of parents to be demeaned if Christian—Classical Education (a Scholastic brilliant system of TRUE education) is essential for Reason (Bible Wisdom for understanding human Nature along with Math and Phonics, Rhetoric, etc).

Older companies, especially those selling prosaic products, are desperate to appear cool, in order to attract millennials, who are perceived as liberal.

How to make Tylenol sexy? Pander to gays. Tim Cook's "outing" was little more than a PR stunt, to endear himself to the younger generation & retain Apple's relevance.
