        It’s like talking to a toddler: “My feelings are more important than anything, I have no impulse-control! Ahhhhhh!”

    Far-right podcast host Joey Mannarino announced he would be “dumping out my Frosted Flakes” over its association with Mulvaney and switching to Froot Loops. He did not seem to realize that both cereal brands are owned by Kellogg’s, so he’s not actually sending his money somewhere else.

    Well…

      switching to Froot Loops

      I love the irony that he went with the queerest named cereal as a replacement.

        My favorite Joey Mannarino plotline was when he tried to organize a boycott of Chick-Fil-A of all things for being too woke.

          I think we should start figuring out ways to get the NRA to post some lines of support for LGBTQ+ gun owners now.

    Especially hilarious these same people constantly complain about ‘cancel culture’

  • I can see the ads on Fox or OANN now.

    “MAGA Mush! Quality gruel for quality patriots! Available at your local Cabela’s now!”

    At least I’m assuming they haven’t canceled Cabela’s like Bass Pro yet.

    they then proceed to both create the Streisand effect for said product… followed by usually purchasing said product to destroy it in internet videos for other chumps.

    Please keep going far right people. Boycot as many large businesses as possible. Maybe these giant corporations will finally stop donating to right sided politicians.

    They helped create this nonsense, so they can help solve it.

    Farms tend to be rural… Rural communities tend to be conservative. How are “Conservatives” going to run out of things to eat when they literally grow food?

    The hell is this article supposing? That Tony the Tiger owns all food? This type of editorialization is stupid. Who cares that ANYBODY boycotted what amount to sugar soup?

      Its not literal. Its just poking fun at the fact that culture-war-conservatives are boycotting more and more things for dumb reasons

        So boycotting (and suing) cake shops for not making gay marriage cakes… this is any different how?

        You can’t shit on the other side for something yours is doing too and act holier than thou.

        All this serves is to antagonize them and divides everyone more… And makes people like me hate both of your parties.

        Every day my Polish Citizenship looks better. Everyone looks more childish every day in this country.

          If I discriminate at work, I’ll get fired. If I don’t discriminate at work, I won’t get fired. This is not a double-standard. It’s THE standard. Pretending otherwise just emboldens discrimination.

          the key difference is it’s good for people who refuse to respect basic human rights to be boycotted and socially ostracized for doing so. conservatives, meanwhile, pretty much exclusively do boycotts because they’re mad they can’t restrict other people’s human rights

            You’re attempting to restrict the rights for an artist to choose their art… Somehow that’s different? That’s very delusional thinking. It is literally the same thing. You’re just treating it special because you happen to agree with one and not the other, so you’re refusing to look at it from a neutral standpoint.

            If the left can boycott a cake shop for not wanting to generate art that has certain motifs, then the right 100% should be able to boycott companies for depictions that also have certain motifs.

            This is literally equivalent. And if you’re mad about the right treating you like shit because you harbor the former belief then you shouldn’t be the people push the latter problem on others.

                If you have to resort calling the other side “nazi” because you have no other point… You make yourself look pretty foolish.

                It doesn’t matter the ideology if you both act the same exact way.

                edit: It’s actually disappointing that a moderator acts like this. Strawmanning my statement… talking down to fellow federation members… participating in bad faith arguments.

      Do you really think that’s what the article was saying? Their boycotting farms? I guess you also think they are boycotting ranches, and fisheries too? Or many… just maybe… the author was using something so common we have name for it? Hyperbole

        You may want to read my post again.

        Boycotting sugar soup is not “running out of things to eat”.

        Nowhere did I say that they’re boycotting farms. Wouldn’t make sense since I asserted that they run most rural farms.
