#BoycottHersheys Trends on Twitter After New Ad Campaign Horribly Backfires
Western Journal ^ | March 2, 2023 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 03/02/2023 8:30:23 PM PST by Golden Eagle

Hershey is taking heat this week for featuring a man posing as a woman in an advertising campaign celebrating International Women’s Day.

The hashtag #BoycottHersheys began trending on Twitter on Thursday after the chocolate maker introduced transgender activist Fae Johnstone as one of its “Her for She” honorees, The Daily Wire reported.

Hershey will sell chocolate bars with wrappers featuring Johnstone and four actual women.

In a video announcing the campaign, Johnstone says, “We can create a world where everyone is able to live in public space as their honest and authentic selves.”

Hershey touted the woke campaign in a news release.

This is far from the only woke campaign Hershey has indulged in. The company pushes the gay pride movement and has been recognized by DiversityInc as one of the most “diverse” corporations in the country.

Hershey also fired all its employees who refused to take the COVID vaccines.

There are tens of thousands of women in history and today whose stories could be inspirations on their products, and they pick an ugly guy who makes an even uglier guy in drag.

I prefer actual chocolate to whatever that is that Hershey is selling.

Good grief !

After Gillette razors went down the WOKE hole, you’d think these manufacturers would run from this insanity.

Hershey’s is history !

Come back Jack the Ripper. All is forgiven.

Once you have bitten into a Toblerone or something like it, how can you even try Hershey’s ?! Eeeek. Hershey’s is like candle wax, or was, the last time I accidentally tried one. And now it’s candle wax with a homo flavor.

I rather they concentrate on getting the lead and cadium out of their dark chocolate.

Hershey’s must be in such a woke bubble that they assumed everyone would love this ad.

Don’t stop there general public - boycott Hershey Park this spring and summer as well.

Knoebels is a much more family friendly park and doesn’t charge for admittance or parking.

A lot of criticism of the company on Twitter and on their Facebook page. He-she’s chocolate. Pledges of no longer buying Hershey’s, including many women outraged a man who pretends to be a woman was chosen for women’s day.

You guys DISGUST ME!!! Putting a man, dressed as a woman, to represent you guys!! FYI....men dressing up as women are NOT real women. Stop trying to gaslight the People.

Hershey... Pushing the liberal narrative that men make better women than women.

Also seen on twitter
So if Hersheys featured a dude with his face painted like a woman on intl woman’s day, why didn’t they feature a white person with their face painted black for black history month? 🤔 Same thing, right? Polar opposites. #BoycottHersheys

I rarely eat sugar, but if it’s chocolate for me, I go to a See’s candy shop and get a few delicious pieces. Hershey’s is not worth the calories. AND THEY GAVE US JEFFREY DAHMER!

A quick image search of Fae Johnstone shows a smirking attention whore who has gloatingly found a way out of White Guilt.
