State Farm scraps gender identity project after ‘Like a Creepy Neighbor’ campaign brings awareness
Fox News ^ | May 24, 2022 | Brian Flood

State Farm quickly distanced itself from a program that pushed books about gender fluidity on young children Monday after a new ad campaign slammed the insurance giant as "a creepy neighbor," but Consumers' Research thinks the insurance giant still has to "undo the damage" it caused.

"Yesterday we launched our ad campaign calling out State Farm for donating books aimed at kindergartners on the topics of transgenderism and being non-binary… now they claim that they have ended their partnership with the GenderCool Project," Consumers' Research executive director Will Hild told Fox News Digital, calling the turn of events "an indication of how much power consumers have."

An email from a whistleblower provided to Consumers’ Research, which the organization provided to Fox News Digital, indicated that State Farm urged Florida agents to take action and provide LGBTQ+ books to children through a partnership with the GenderCool program – which describes itself as "helping replace misinformed opinions with positive experiences meeting transgender and non-binary youth who are thriving."

Consumers’ Research, a nonprofit that aims to "increase the knowledge and understanding of issues, policies, products, and services of concern to consumers and to promote the freedom to act on that knowledge and understanding," launched the website LikeACreepyNeighbor.com, where information and ways to take action against State Farm were provided. The group also created a 30-second ad, titled "Like a Creepy Neighbor," which mocked the company’s slogan, and began with a narrator declaring that State Farm says it's a good neighbor before asking, "But would a good neighbor target five-year olds for conversation about sexual identity?"

A few hours after Consumers’ Research campaign went live, State Farm emailed employees, announcing they would no longer be participating in the GenderCool program.

Probably headed up by the same “prevert” that put out the groomer stuff.

“Like A Creepy Neighbor” - I’m chuckling here, that’s pretty good. The Dems are sweating that the sexualization of children issue may become a watershed in ‘22 and none of them saw it coming. McAuliffe getting ousted in Virginia when they thought they had that state safely captured was a wakeup call. I don’t think their radicals are going to allow them to disengage on it, either - too much time and institutional commitment into it already. They might lose the powerful pedophilia wing of the teachers’ unions, for one thing. The pedos in Hollywood won’t like it either. That bus will be driven off a cliff before it will be turned around.

Gendercool is related in some way to Swissa Creative, of Chicago. Swissa Creative has just 4 employees. Top one is
Kobi Swissa.

Good. The backlash gains momentum.

One of the worst insurance companies to do business with.

They need to show the evidence they’re no longer associated with the Project. Just sending an e-mail to their agents saying so isn’t enough.

No they don’t.

Do a search for mutual insurance in your state and you may find local insurance.

I did in Iowa. No evidence of supporting perversion because LOCAL

I believe the LibsofTikTok Twitter account was one of the very first to expose (pun unintended!) this plan.

Gendercool was apparently started by two brain-damaged women whose failed parenting resulted in confused, coddled children living a fantasy life.

Interesting if you search for it, it does not show, at least for me.

State Farm successfully defended against a lawsuit in the 1990s brought against a State Farm policyholder who molested his grandchildren in a rental property.

Now it's like they're trying to cause them.

"Like a Creepy Neighbor"
"...would a good neighbor target five-year olds for conversation about sexual identity?"

Yeah, let's have our neighbors target our kids for conversations about ANYTHING related to sex. Those perverts and pedos would find the wrath of God coming down on them.

The name "GenderCool" makes me sick. As does State Farm for launching this. Is the guy who did this going to get axed?

It was a junior level “analyst” who wrote the email. I can’t believe a senior exec wouldn’t launch this. So the big question is did the “analyst” go rogue? Or was he forced to do this by higher-ups?

Swissa apparently does their promotion music, etc.

Nike also got on the GC bandwagon. Seems kind of odd that two nutty moms who have confused their kids should have so much influence on two big companies.

Lissen.....I still think the world of State Farm, who we have had for ALL our insurance needs for more than 20 years. SO MANY of their programs are great, and designed to save you money, like the little remote thingie you can keep in your console or glovebox to monitor your driving speed, and careless driving, like too often veering into the other lane. You actually get refunds based on good driving, and they really amount to something. I think for our three cars it’s amounted to several hundred $$ at least for the past year. I am surprised that they relented and agreed to this idiot program. Gratified that they scrapped it. Obviously they heard from their policy-holders.
