Conservative Outrage Over Adidas Male Model In Swimwear!

This is what keeps the far right up.

If the far right boycott things they eat, drink, drive, wear, travel, watch and visit.... they will have nothing to bitch about. They will be hungry, stranded and broke.

The Republicans are too far gone to understand that their ridiculous culture wars are only hurting their chances at winning in 2024. And if they do win, it could spark a rise in domestic terrorism. I am getting far ahead of myself. I mean I hate projection and future tense.

Washed Up 45 and the minions are so invested in pissing off people of color, migrants, those in the LGBTQ community, young voters and even their own to "own the libs."

Democrats have been cautiously optimistic and worried about how our country is moving post Roe v. Wade. The Supreme Court is expected to rule on executive powers, affirmative action and federal regulation cases. They will also test the limitations of church and state. If the Court pulls what I believe it may do, generations of Americans will lose their opportunity to succeed, the government can quietly roll back regulations and it will lead to catastrophic results.

What's new in the culture wars?

Adidas.

You know the company that severed ties with Ye after he said he'll go "def con 3" on the Jews and declared Adolf Hitler was a genius. Ye still hasn't recovered from that.

The far right are outraged again. The Daily Mail, Breitbart, Fox and Republicans like do nothing Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) are whining.

Adidas collaborated with South African designer Rich Mnisi to release the "Let Love Be Your Legacy" collection and campaign. The company attempts to "encourage allyship and freedom of expression without bias, in all spaces of sport and culture" with its campaign with Mnisi.

Riley Gaines, a former NCAA swim star who is a white nationalist and Mace supposedly the smart Republican were among those Wednesday who took issue with the model advertising a woman’s Adidas swimsuit as part of the company’s pride collection.

Adidas said in its news release it partnered with Athlete Ally, "which focuses on ending homophobia and transphobia in sport."

"Together with adidas our goal is to drive inclusivity in sport– supporting student athletes from the LGBTQI+ and their allies to push for fair access and safe participation in sport. Through our partnership, we’ve created more affirming athletic spaces to celebrate the community across sexual orientations, gender identities and gender expressions," Athlete Ally founder Hudson Taylor said.

Why don't these women mind their own business? No one is talking about their plastic surgery and botox injections.

For the far right, it's woke.

Bud Light's partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney ignited a boycott that sent the popular beer brand's sales nosediving for multiple weeks last month and continues to trouble the company. Protests of Bud Light and parent company Anheuser-Busch began after Bud Light sent a commemorative can to Mulvaney to mark her first year of transitioning to a woman. However, many LGBTQ+ advocates have criticized the company for not defending its ties with the influencer, who has more than 10 million TikTok followers.

Adidas and Bud Light are not the only brands to become the target of conservatives' ire over marketing that advocates for the LGBTQ+ community. Multiple social media users recently took aim at Miller Lite over what they dubbed "woke" advertising, and Target's LGBTQ+ Pride Month line sparked calls for the retailer to receive "the Bud Light treatment."

The Republicans are losing their shit over things that don't affect their lives.

Gun violence is the biggest threat to the country. Democracy is on the brink of collapse.

We are self destructing before the world's eyes with this stalemate to raising the debt ceiling.

The Republicans show no interest in governing with a Democratic president. They want to sow chaos for short term gains.
