Crayola has joined the woke brigade with a vengeance: The activist left cannot leave anything alone, especially when it involves sex or sexuality

I want this one renamed "Irish chick on a beach"

That's the before. For the after, fire-engine red.

dude looks like a lady

[Levy78]

Why is American Thinker playing along by calling that confused dude a “she”?

[Vaduz]

Indeed same type of people useless and dangerous to the public and other living things.

The label needs to be a lot smaller.

People tried to politicize Crayola by pointing out that the “flesh” colored crayon didn’t match the skin color of Blacks, Asians, or Hispanics
= = =

But the Red for their blood would be the same for all, right? So they were OK (then)?

Note that Red changed. Probably due to some ‘red dye’ danger.

That changed to a more waxy translucent red.

My kid’s old Reds (45 years old) are really good red. I still have them, short, blunted, paper torn back.

I did get to tour a Crayola manufacturing plant in Kansas back about 40 years ago. No photos allowed. Through a window I could see into their Color Lab. Chemistry glassware, clean lab tables, prismatic color charts, etc. But no political or social slogans or rainbow flags.

Most colors were poured into automated rotating molds. But not Raw Umber. That was made from remelting and combining damaged crayons (like not with a perfect tip), and pouring them into a static old-school mold by hand.

In the political tone of today, that Raw Umber is the ‘melting pot’ of society. We are headed there now.

Umber = A natural brown earth containing ferric oxide and manganese oxides. God formed Man from the Earth.

Crayola, I weep for you, how far you have fallen.

[BlackbirdSST]

LMBO!

"But that doesn’t make her an appropriate celebratory figure for crayons, markers, or anything else Crayola sells."

Why do conservative media capitulate to the false use of pronouns?

[Salamander]

LOL

[Salamander]

I can't take credit for it. :)

[Salamander]

There is a wonderful black comedian who ranted against the “color crap” and challenged his audience to go to Lowes and compare themselves to paint chips.

You need to go do it.

I was shocked.

You start out on the pasty side of the chips and find yourself bewildered as you keep creeping into the deeper hues.

I’m actually something akin to “toasted caramel”.

/it’s the weird Welsh gene

:D

[MikelTackNailer]

Don't be the last on your block to be stuck with a cisgender child poisoned by uncompromizing genetics. There's a wide selection of toys designed to help them through their transitional period!

Before you know it they'll be seeking out transgender restrooms all by themselves. Good job, nurture person!

[dfwgator]

Rock Em Sock Em Robots?!?!?! Is nothing sacred?

And yet…by the end of next week…tons of school supplies will be requested from the government schools. Crayons crayons will be on that list and we will stupidly supply them, just like we stupidly supply our children to government schools for at least twelve years of their very young and foundational life.

I keep waiting for the pendulum to swing back, but I think the pendulum has fallen off.

And I think it is being pulled so far out that when it swings back it will be devastating for these pervs and their enablers.

[wildbill]

Well, one wonders how this will affect retail sales of Crayolas coming out just before the new school year purchases of school supplies.

I’m buying some “put options” on the stock.

[clearcarbon]

"And I think it is being pulled so far out that when it swings back it will be devastating for these pervs and their enablers.”

The farther the idealogical pendulum is forced to the left, the greater the likelihood of an equally determined rightward swing to restore balance. The next swing of the pendulum may be very unforgiving.

I think it had already started the rightward swing, increasing force is being continually applied to slow or stop it.

[NorthMountain]

Is that a lady pretending to be a dude, or a dude pretending to be a lady?

[NorthMountain]

“Diversity” means “Kill Whitey”.
