Netflix kids' show Sesame Street continues sexual messaging with pride post
The Christian Post ^ | 4 June 2026 | Ian M. Giatti

One of TV’s longest-running children's shows is facing backlash for once again linking its puppets to homosexuality on social media.

Sesame Street shared a post on social media Tuesday, which read: “Happy Pride Month from Sesame Street! Join us in celebrating and uplifting the [gay and lesbian] members of our community.”

The post also included an image featuring different rainbow-colored furs resembling puppet characters from Sesame Street, such as Elmo, Cookie Monster and others.

Primarily geared toward toddlers, the series, (which moved in 2015 from PBS to HBO, and in 2025) was acquired by Netflix — drew the ire of pastors and other Evangelical groups on social media, including Turning Point USA, which criticized Sesame Street for its pro-LGBT messaging.

“This is literally a show meant for children,” TPUSA wrote on X.

Pastor Josh Howerton, senior pastor of Lakepointe Church in Rockwall, Texas, also called out Sesame Street for marketing sexual lifestyles to children.

Premium Pay television values are now seen by Sesame Street. This is the consequence of what happens when elitist television on premium pay takes over television.

I cannot believe Jim Henson would have approved of this.

White liberal 'elites' running Universities favor the sexual mutilation of children - their loss. Literally. Sterile children don't reproduce. Note: DON'T send your children to liberal indoctrination centers like Harvard... et al.

I see I'm behind the times.

Sesame Street is Netflix? Not NET? When did they buy it?

[TV shows like “Abbott Elementary,” “Hacks,” “Heartstopper,” “The Last of Us” and “Yellowjackets” helped increase the ranks of LGBTQ+ characters on prime time by 4% over the previous season, according to a new study by the advocacy group GLAAD.]





And along the same line...

Defund PBS and NPR -
Pro-Queer, Pro-"Transgender",
Pro-Homosexual Agenda,
Pro-Drag Queen Story Hour,
Pro-LGBTQ+, Pro-Child-Grooming,
Godless Reprobates





(just so the public knows why we fight)
