It seems like theres no shortage of alphabet soup in the diet of media consumption during [current year]. The buffet of pop-culture offerings seems to be dwindling down heteronormative standards in place of trying to adhere to the whims of the Twitter hordes and Portland-esque propaganda puppets who want all things Rainbow Reich controlling media, politics, and society in general. This became evident with Amazons Christmas ad, which decided to fall lock-step in sync with [current year] trends.
The ad is a minute and a half long, and it was originally published back on November 3rd, 2019 over on Amazons YouTube channel. You can check it out below.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2K0flh9uMc&feature=emb_title
The theme of the ad is that a bunch of people are singing and talking about love and crap, and they show people hugging, holding hands and showing very light public displays of affection.
However, at the 49 second mark theres a couple that runs and embraces with the biggest, longest kiss of the ad. However, its not a man and a woman its a woman and a woman.
The first woman races toward the second woman who has her back to the camera. The first woman, a white woman with the sides of her head shaved, jumps into the embrace of a smaller Asian woman with dark hair. Thats when they kiss for seconds on end.
The moments that dont involve the kiss between these two are brief; fleeting faster than a dove out of a fog during an east coast thunderstorm.
In total, they spend close to four seconds on the lesbian couple, two of which are completely centered on the kiss itself. In other words, half the time that the lesbians were depicted in their sequence was focused on the kiss.
Expect the typical Centrists to run to the defense of the ad as they usually do, likely while they dress up their kid in drag clothing or allow their wifes boyfriend to take them to dinner and a movie.

Just sent this to primary@amazon.com:
As a long term costumer I am writing to say that I intend to cease or drastically minimize my purchasing from you in response to your inconsiderate offensive video ad featuring lesbians kissing each other, which promotes sinful and deleterious immorality.
Your cowardly decision to give in to the implacable demand of this movement is an attack on faithful Christians, and thus you can hardly expect support of your business when other viable options exist. And of course your increasingly liberal trajectory is consistent with your owners ideology, but which I have shown tolerance to until you finally crossed the line with this “holiday ad.
May God have mercy on those responsible for your flagrant promotion of iniquity.

As with politics we often must do with the best we can, all things considered. As an alternative to Amazon there is Walmart, often cheaper though with less variety, but who are just less liberal.
If you want to predicate your purchasing on political appropriateness, you'll have to move to the woods, build a cabin, and live completely on the land.
I’ve been boycotting Amazon for a long time.
He owns the Washington Post. Seems most of the fake news is generated by the Washington Post. The WP will say something them every news station will say, “The Washington Post is reporting ...... “ I believe the WP generates even more fake news than the NYT.
I stopped shopping at amazon years ago.

I know you can hardly escape dong business with companies that to varying degrees do obeisance to the image of Sodom, which is why I said we often must do with the best we can, all things considered.
Thus I did not stop my normal recourse to Amazon when its prices were better on certain items (and there service has been very good) until in my judgment this current egregious example.
Living off the land is attractive, but we here are mainly in this city to minister to people.
Aside from Walmart, and Home Depot and the like as regards wide-scope online comparison shopping then there is Ebay, but which means more directly supporting China (though much comes via Hong Kong).
But thank God we can buy anything. May it all be used for His purposes and to His glory.
A BIBLICAL Message about homosexuality
Genesis 13:13Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.Leviticus niv
18:22 Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.
20:13 If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.
Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them;
they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it.
Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.
================================================
2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight.
They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.
Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.
Romans 1 New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE)18 The wrath of God is indeed being revealed from heaven against every impiety and wickedness of those who suppress the truth by their wickedness. 19 For what can be known about God is evident to them, because God made it evident to them. 20 Ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes of eternal power and divinity have been able to be understood and perceived in what he has made. As a result, they have no excuse; 21 for although they knew God they did not accord him glory as God or give him thanks. Instead, they became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened. 22 While claiming to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for the likeness of an image of mortal man or of birds or of four-legged animals or of snakes.
24 Therefore, God handed them over to impurity through the lusts of their hearts for the mutual degradation of their bodies. 25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and revered and worshiped the creature rather than the creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 Therefore, God handed them over to degrading passions. Their females exchanged natural relations for unnatural, 27 and the males likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one another. Males did shameful things with males and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their perversity. 28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God handed them over to their undiscerning mind to do what is improper. 29 They are filled with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy, murder, rivalry, treachery, and spite.
2 Peter 2
1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.
But there IS hope!!!
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

"Get out of our way, they replied.
This fellow came here as a foreigner, and now he wants to play the judge!
Well treat you worse than them.
They kept bringing pressure on Lot and moved forward to break down the door.
If you do much shopping there you won't.
Seems like most of them work the cash registers.
Agreed but it is very tough as the left coopts a lot of business these days. Unless one becomes a hermit and never buys anything it will be difficult to be pure. I avoid the most egregious companies if there is an alternative but if none I bite the bullet and get what one needs. Fortunately my needs are minimal.
