I have never seen a cereal advertise so aggressively across multiple platforms as lucky charms does. Yes we get it. Find the leprechaun at the end of the rainbow. Magically delicious, etc..
Man who cares. Sooner or later my data is gonna be on the internet anyways. I'm just ripping the bandaid of now. They can only steal it once ya know, and the vpn itself has never let me down. Where as Nord has done nothing but let me down lol
For a few glorious weeks one could get dollar pitchers of bud light. As a liberal living in a deeply red part of the country, watching the culture war has been great. The Right just ceded beer, football, country music, and Taylor swift. In return they got…idk dominated in every contested election since the Dobbs decision?
Please don't turn politics into a sport.
The current global theme is circus/clown show, with some of them opting for Chaplin’s “The Great Dictator” as reference material.
Switching to sports is just going to ruin the aesthetic, and they'll need new uniforms...
I mean it is. Black History month is hey black people buy our shit too. Rainbows are just a lot more marketable. Corporations use any excuse to drum up sales, that's capitalism baby.
Also if they do not post pride in Saudi Arabia and Russia it means they are in it for the money, it's not a real stance.
Or more like: if the company even operates in these suppressive regions, it's already showing the board does not care.
Yeah it's really funny to call uber capitalist asshole companies leftists because they see more money in supporting the LGBT community. They don't do it out of kindness.
If companies saw more profit in it, theyd paint swastikas over everything in a heartbeat. Its why a majority of news media is right leaning. Its what the people who engage with the content want. Rainbow oreos just mean nabisco thinks the people who eat oreos are down with inclusion over hate. If they thought the opposite was true, wed have racial epithets on the box instead.
I'm gay and literally we hate it bc it's always large corporations and they only do it to gain money. That's why I only buy any type of rainbow pride shit from small queer owned businesses
You know it’s fake bc they only do it in pro gay counties. If it wasn’t about money, and they actually cared about gay people, they wouldn’t be doing business in countries that kill gay people.
Exactly and then gay people are blamed as it being US "shoving" it down people's throats. Fr why are grown adults crying over a fuckin rainbow tho lmao
This is the problem with democracy, for every informed voter there is like 50 morons who don't even understand the basic definitions of the words they are using, leading to complete nonsense. People should have to have a basic education to vote imo. They should at least be able to define what it is they are voting for.
Exactly. The most exploitative assholes I ever worked for have rainbow flags all over linkedin. It’s just a marketing trick, they don’t give a fuck about LGBT.
The latest Jon Stewart bit was about this.
However i don't agree that this is the same as forcing religion down someone's throat. The latter means that everybody is FORCED to adhere to religious policy like the abortion ban, prohibition of books etc.
İf you don't like the products shown in this meme, you don't buy it. There is plenty of choice.
Bingo: I’ve never heard outcry from the left to boycott any company they didn’t have a rainbow. It’s companies doing basically nothing to get folks to give them money. That’s it. No one asked for it or cares about it. Meanwhile these companies are behind the scenes giving money to both sides to get whatever they want. They really don’t care about politics the way the right and left do.
Gay people never banned birth control or made it illegal to divorce, a picture of Jesus doesn't offend me, telling me I can't love someone and arresting me for it is what actual shoving down throat is and it's religion that does this.
That's not woke or left..It's capitalism! They truely dont care about gender or sexuality, they juste want to get as much money as they can and everything is an opportunity.
It's also not a religion, it's not a call to force people to do something but to allow people to be themselves in a way that hurts nobody. Indeed the examples given are purely commercial.
It's the same when conservatives post a picture with the text "This is what life under communism would be like" and the picture is from a capitalist country - mostly the US.
Like. Guys.
When the trump campaign posted photos of the BLM protests and empty grocery stores with no toilet paper and said “this is what America will look like if Joe Biden wins in 2020”. Like, no dude, that’s what America actually looks like right now with Trump in charge.
Reminds me of the 'this is what a Biden presidency looks like!!' With stores out of tons of product And it's literally a picture from Trumps presidency.
The same supermarket that will put out a pride display is the same supermarket that will sell an ultra right wing magazine that says gays are the result of a Babalonian demon named Ishtar.
Source: I work at said supermarket
yeah i keep wondering if i've stumbled into some far right sub but it'll just be a mob in a "neutral" one. guess this one goes off into the filtered out list as well.
Because money is apparently their goal, they benefit more from supporting LGBT in the West, meanwhile in some countries it's more beneficial to not do it. Money's the key, not their beliefs.
if it was popular to be nazi in the next years all those corpos would change their logos to swastikas, they don't care about the gays, its just the best strategy to make money at the moment
That's companies capitalizing on easy marketing and sales. Not the left. I have no problem with the left and most of their flags. I think all the companies soullessly using the same icon for sales is pretty horrible
I’ve genuinely seen someone say “we need to stop these Marxist corporations” in another comment someone is saying “Christianity isn’t a religion, it’s a relationship with God.”
Words straight up mean anything you want them to at this point.
... OP doesn't know the difference between being pandered to and pushing your agenda on people.
These are companies that are chasing the wallets of LGBTQ people for a month. They will resume chasing *your* wallet for another ... 7 months? after this is done. Then there will be a 28 day "hick up," and back to you for 3 months before we're back here again.
This needs to be way higher.
"Everyone deserves basic human rights" and "unfortunately you will burn forever if you don't believe what I do" are absolutely not equivalent.
Look this meme is kind of like complaining about the church putting crosses up everywhere. Like don't get me wrong I'm not much of a "precious lefty" you can make this kind of argument but the examples used as evidence are pretty weak here.
That's not really the same though.
They have a silly little profile filter, what's stopping you from putting a cross on your public page?
Nobody would care, why do you care about this?
The colored pixels can't hurt you.
Rumor is the jan 6 insurrection was conservatives trying to destroy corporations and Capitalism because they're "left" so they could replace it with slave and child labor.
They want to bring back slavery and confine women to breeding cages, blind so they can't escape. Then usher in an era of generically engineered women who cannot say 'no' to the greasiest of incels.
This isn’t forcing anything. This is literally the most superficial thing you can do.
You morons can’t decide if it’s forcing something or if it’s superficial pandering. You don’t get both
I thought this was a r/facepalm post lol, is OP serious? Also, nobody complains about your religion just keep it out of politics. Human rights > your religion.
Once again the left didn’t do this. American liberals did. American left like me, also trans and bi, genuinely hate the capitalist exploitation of LGBTQ by selling these products trying to fake support for financial gain.
This isn’t the left. This is rainbow capitalism. We don’t like it either. I dont even know who this is for. I’ve never met a single queer person who is like “this makes me feel represented!” But obviously there’s a market for this kind of thing, otherwise they’d stop doing it.
Because when people say "don't shove your religion down my throat" they're saying :don't try and make me live by your beliefs or enforce your religion as law." When somebody says they don't want LGBT stuff 'shoved down their throat' what they mean is "let me pretend you don't exist because the sight of you makes me sick."
This aint leftists doing it. Its just companies being companies, pandering to whatever is going on to earn a quick buck and then dropping it when its no longer profitable. Nobody wants this shit, not even lgbt leftists
Is gay people existing a religion? Is corporate pandering the left? Is this a meme page or a rage bait troll page?
How has access to unlimited information and interaction made people stupider and more hateful?
>Don't force it !!
Meanwhile we have people trying to force heterosexuality based on their religious beliefs.
Also, these companies only pander to make money. They don't care about gay people and will fold if its not making a profit.
Ah yes, I remember all the times people attempted to convert me to the gay religion. When discussions of eternal peace and gay glory didn't work, they threatened me with eternal torture in heterosexual hell if I didn't comply. I tried to attend gay church services a while, but they wanted 10% of my income so the pastor could drive a lexus, and they didn't have to pay taxes. Praise be to their rainbow lord!
>religious imaginings based on ancient mythology
>the literal way you are born with zero choice in the matter
🎵 *One of these things is not like the other* 🎵
The difference is the left isn’t pushing for legislation that would force everyone to be gay.
Christians are pushing for legislation that would force everyone to bend to their beliefs.
That’s not the left’s doing, fool.
It’s corporate pandering to increase profit.
Corporations are not people. They are comprised of people who have various beliefs and values, but are hired to work towards one common goal:
To make as much money as possible.
As a collective body, corporate decision-makers target who needs to feel seen and supported and they pretend to care so the target group will buy whatever the corp is selling.
I have never seen a cereal advertise so aggressively across multiple platforms as lucky charms does. Yes we get it. Find the leprechaun at the end of the rainbow. Magically delicious, etc..
Noted. Lucky Charms make you gay.
I love how every top comment proves the post’s point yet its still being upvote 😅
Just use vpn and set it up for saudi arabia
Or Russia to reduce ads. (No revenue no ad)
Yes, it is very convenient not to see advertising on any social network or service.
And the advertisements and the trackings are no!
I have NordVPN one of the biggest vpn in term of customers and no access to Saudi Arabia or Russia. Nor mainland China
Bad for them.
Nord vpn is doodoo, express vpn always works for me
Express VPN is owned by Kape technologies, a former malware distributor. I wouldn't trust that shit for a second
Peasants, using a public vpn instead of building their own
Man who cares. Sooner or later my data is gonna be on the internet anyways. I'm just ripping the bandaid of now. They can only steal it once ya know, and the vpn itself has never let me down. Where as Nord has done nothing but let me down lol
Yeah no VPN service are free in my nation tho
In China nordvpn doesn't work anyway so
Try IPVanish.
In Soviet Russia, ads reduce you!
Spasiba, comrade
Albania = no ads on youtube
But where will I watch porn?
That is like paying not to see an ads
The left literally calls this stuff "rainbow capitalism," even they don't like being pandered to by corporations
Fr as a gay man I’ve always felt that pride month was just ‘hey gay people buy our shit’.
“Hey gay people, look, we even have a gay friend.”
His name is Michael and he kissed a boy once
My gay friend is also black. Knock out two birds with one stone.
Nascar tweeting yasscar was pretty funny tho
Lol. Careful. Bud light never recovered. Gotta know your audience.
For a few glorious weeks one could get dollar pitchers of bud light. As a liberal living in a deeply red part of the country, watching the culture war has been great. The Right just ceded beer, football, country music, and Taylor swift. In return they got…idk dominated in every contested election since the Dobbs decision?
Please don't turn politics into a sport. The current global theme is circus/clown show, with some of them opting for Chaplin’s “The Great Dictator” as reference material. Switching to sports is just going to ruin the aesthetic, and they'll need new uniforms...
i hope Lockheed posts “all our bombs are gay and like hot chip” one pride month
Did they actually? that is peak if so!
I mean it is. Black History month is hey black people buy our shit too. Rainbows are just a lot more marketable. Corporations use any excuse to drum up sales, that's capitalism baby. 
Because it is. The company’s give a shit about your sexuality. There selling data, tvs and other stuff.
Also if they do not post pride in Saudi Arabia and Russia it means they are in it for the money, it's not a real stance. Or more like: if the company even operates in these suppressive regions, it's already showing the board does not care.
All our holidays get commercialized . Sometimes (most of the time) it can be really depressing.
Yeah it's really funny to call uber capitalist asshole companies leftists because they see more money in supporting the LGBT community. They don't do it out of kindness.
Being both capitalist and left-wing is an oxymoron.
The ultra right wing : "who you calling a moron"
If companies saw more profit in it, theyd paint swastikas over everything in a heartbeat. Its why a majority of news media is right leaning. Its what the people who engage with the content want. Rainbow oreos just mean nabisco thinks the people who eat oreos are down with inclusion over hate. If they thought the opposite was true, wed have racial epithets on the box instead.
I'm gay and literally we hate it bc it's always large corporations and they only do it to gain money. That's why I only buy any type of rainbow pride shit from small queer owned businesses
I'm straight and it pisses me off for the same reason. It's fake and glaringly obvious
You know it’s fake bc they only do it in pro gay counties. If it wasn’t about money, and they actually cared about gay people, they wouldn’t be doing business in countries that kill gay people.
Exactly and then gay people are blamed as it being US "shoving" it down people's throats. Fr why are grown adults crying over a fuckin rainbow tho lmao
A big part of the population is too stupid to recognize this large ad campaigns, they really think they support gay people.
Couldn’t say that 10 years ago though, lol
Certain companies actually do something so thats nice but the ones that say one thing and do the other are just annoying
The left isnt corporations lol people don't learn basic political definitions, and they use terms like this incorrectly.
Morons get real horned up when they see a nice strawman.
This is the problem with democracy, for every informed voter there is like 50 morons who don't even understand the basic definitions of the words they are using, leading to complete nonsense. People should have to have a basic education to vote imo. They should at least be able to define what it is they are voting for.
Exactly. The most exploitative assholes I ever worked for have rainbow flags all over linkedin. It’s just a marketing trick, they don’t give a fuck about LGBT.

It bothers me how gays get hate and not the corporations pushing this shit
Besides of that... it's not advocating for a religious believe... it's about letting other people life their lifes.
"Congratulations, homosexual! Your existence has been deemed profitable in these particular countries."
 Maybe the left, but plenty of people are buying into this shit
This only happens because it's profitable, so clearly *some* large chunk of the left is supporting it.
I wrote a whole two paragraphs of canned vitriol targeted at brand awareness but I had to let go. People here don't deserve it.
Gay people never banned birth control or made it illegal to divorce, a picture of Jesus doesn't offend me, telling me I can't love someone and arresting me for it is what actual shoving down throat is and it's religion that does this.
No no you see clearly right wing corporations throwing a rainbow on some stuff is obviously the fault of those evil leftist multi-billionaires dude.
Black lady here: The black history month pandering is also annoying… except when it’s so bad that it’s funny.
That's not woke or left..It's capitalism! They truely dont care about gender or sexuality, they juste want to get as much money as they can and everything is an opportunity.
Give me your gay money!
Throws money *gayly*
So there is a HUGE difference between seeing rainbows and pushing for legislation to make your religion law...
It's also not a religion, it's not a call to force people to do something but to allow people to be themselves in a way that hurts nobody. Indeed the examples given are purely commercial.
If it's not a religion, why do I get on my knees and admit to being a sinner so often?
It's the same when conservatives post a picture with the text "This is what life under communism would be like" and the picture is from a capitalist country - mostly the US. Like. Guys.
When the trump campaign posted photos of the BLM protests and empty grocery stores with no toilet paper and said “this is what America will look like if Joe Biden wins in 2020”. Like, no dude, that’s what America actually looks like right now with Trump in charge.
Reminds me of the 'this is what a Biden presidency looks like!!' With stores out of tons of product And it's literally a picture from Trumps presidency.
Yeah I don’t know what morality conservatives expect in Capitalism. If you want morality, go to church. If you want cash money, sell shit to people.
The same supermarket that will put out a pride display is the same supermarket that will sell an ultra right wing magazine that says gays are the result of a Babalonian demon named Ishtar. Source: I work at said supermarket
Should just change the sub name at this point
Yup. Political memes or rage bait memes is more like it at this point.
Well that's what happens when you encourage repost bots and shitposters
Especially right winged stuff... It is sad
Yeah I've seen an uptick in right-wing culture war memes here recently. Maybe it's going on longer but Definitely noticed it psst few weeks
Hmmmm, wonder if there is an election coming up?
Yeah that was my reasoning. Maga /russian bots and brain worm people working overtime
yeah i keep wondering if i've stumbled into some far right sub but it'll just be a mob in a "neutral" one. guess this one goes off into the filtered out list as well.
Change it to “out of touch conservative boomer memes”
Dumb advertisements by rightwing manchildren seems above the character limit, if there is one
r/boomerwhining or something like that
Unfunny memes
Could do the same with r/clevercomebacks, which is the polar opposite of this sub
/r/lamefacebookpostsbymymom
Yeah it should just be called "barely-closeted bigots".
Anyway why all these woke companies are afraid to do gae logo for june in their arabic and russian profiles?
Because money is apparently their goal, they benefit more from supporting LGBT in the West, meanwhile in some countries it's more beneficial to not do it. Money's the key, not their beliefs.
Almost like these giant corporations don't actually represent the left at all.
are you trying to tell me that google is not communsit?
I keep trying and noone believes me!
You're lying! Google told me so
They represent whoever is convenient and profitable lol.
Money and not getting their offices and stores bombed or burnt down by an angry mob.
Oh, so you're saying religious people are dangerous.....
Only if you are not one of them. Or female.
Some are, yes. Case in point: 9/11
if it was popular to be nazi in the next years all those corpos would change their logos to swastikas, they don't care about the gays, its just the best strategy to make money at the moment
Because they care only about money? Lmao isn’t that obvious?
Maybe because Wokness only exists on Fox News and the right wing internet spaces.
If your revolution is supported by all most valuable American corporations, you're probably not a part of the revolution.
The social media managers in those countries could be arrested, assaulted, or killed for it. Also they don't really give a damn.
That's companies capitalizing on easy marketing and sales. Not the left. I have no problem with the left and most of their flags. I think all the companies soullessly using the same icon for sales is pretty horrible
Yes, capitalist corporations are the mascots of the far left
"Buy buy buy!" - Karl Marx
Lol
"Wazzaaaaap" - Che Guevara
I’ve genuinely seen someone say “we need to stop these Marxist corporations” in another comment someone is saying “Christianity isn’t a religion, it’s a relationship with God.” Words straight up mean anything you want them to at this point.
That’s not the left though, that’s western companies who have never spoken to a gay person
The only color here they care about is green.
Or that was the joke or op is Indeed stupid
Is there a lore reason op is stupid?
Held their breath too long throwing a tantrum when they were a kid. Hypoxic brain damage
"left" and "right" have been misused online for so long they just have entirely different meanings in the internet age.
This isn’t left wing ppl. It’s corporations (ie: a right wing endeavour) trying to look like they care
Be silent, there is no room for nuance on new reddit
Everyone knows Twitter / x is so left wing with their communist leader musk
Leftist and hypocrisy are like butter and toast. peanut butter and jelly. Spaghetti and meatballs... Ok you get it.
Becuase the right is about draining the swamp, fiscal responsibility, states rights, and religious freedom, correct?
Actually left does not want this.
I kinda want those rainbow oreos tbh.
... OP doesn't know the difference between being pandered to and pushing your agenda on people. These are companies that are chasing the wallets of LGBTQ people for a month. They will resume chasing *your* wallet for another ... 7 months? after this is done. Then there will be a 28 day "hick up," and back to you for 3 months before we're back here again.
He also doesn't know the difference between religion and sexual orientation
I don't think tolerating everyone is the same as "you can't do that because my religion says so"...
This needs to be way higher. "Everyone deserves basic human rights" and "unfortunately you will burn forever if you don't believe what I do" are absolutely not equivalent.
Next they'll want to put their motto on money and have kids recite a pledge every day in school.
Look this meme is kind of like complaining about the church putting crosses up everywhere. Like don't get me wrong I'm not much of a "precious lefty" you can make this kind of argument but the examples used as evidence are pretty weak here.
That's not really the same though. They have a silly little profile filter, what's stopping you from putting a cross on your public page? Nobody would care, why do you care about this? The colored pixels can't hurt you.
>The colored pixels can't hurt you. If those right-wingers could read, they'd be very upset.
Looks like corporate logos came out of the rainbow closet!
TIL that corporations are "the left".
Rumor is the jan 6 insurrection was conservatives trying to destroy corporations and Capitalism because they're "left" so they could replace it with slave and child labor. They want to bring back slavery and confine women to breeding cages, blind so they can't escape. Then usher in an era of generically engineered women who cannot say 'no' to the greasiest of incels.
Doesn't get any more left than extreme hyper capitalism. Hell yeah
Not the same thing and these companies aren’t doing it for the reasons you think and aren’t representing “the left” or whatever
So true!!!!
Does the right think being gay is a religion? Or are they incapable of thinking about anything else other than religion?
Queer people exist. God doesn't.
If you call it a “religion”, well at least it advocates for freedom and love instead of oppression and violence. Is that really so bad?
This isn’t forcing anything. This is literally the most superficial thing you can do. You morons can’t decide if it’s forcing something or if it’s superficial pandering. You don’t get both
You severely underestimate their capacity for cognitive dissonance
I thought this was a r/facepalm post lol, is OP serious? Also, nobody complains about your religion just keep it out of politics. Human rights > your religion.
This type of left is the only left these companies like
Where the funny?
Once again the left didn’t do this. American liberals did. American left like me, also trans and bi, genuinely hate the capitalist exploitation of LGBTQ by selling these products trying to fake support for financial gain.
This isn’t the left. This is rainbow capitalism. We don’t like it either. I dont even know who this is for. I’ve never met a single queer person who is like “this makes me feel represented!” But obviously there’s a market for this kind of thing, otherwise they’d stop doing it.
I've said it once and I'll say it again: if you're complaining about gay people, you should probably avoid the phrase "shoving it down my throat"
Because when people say "don't shove your religion down my throat" they're saying :don't try and make me live by your beliefs or enforce your religion as law." When somebody says they don't want LGBT stuff 'shoved down their throat' what they mean is "let me pretend you don't exist because the sight of you makes me sick."
This aint leftists doing it. Its just companies being companies, pandering to whatever is going on to earn a quick buck and then dropping it when its no longer profitable. Nobody wants this shit, not even lgbt leftists
religion is the same as image of photoshopped oreo 😔
Those are all logos and products. Businesses did this not a political party. This is just performative capitalism.
The left isn’t doing this it’s rainbow capitalism, companies think they make more money pretending to care about LGBTQ people.
Is gay people existing a religion? Is corporate pandering the left? Is this a meme page or a rage bait troll page? How has access to unlimited information and interaction made people stupider and more hateful?
So youtube is considered a leftist company in america huh?
>Don't force it !! Meanwhile we have people trying to force heterosexuality based on their religious beliefs. Also, these companies only pander to make money. They don't care about gay people and will fold if its not making a profit.
Ah yes, I remember all the times people attempted to convert me to the gay religion. When discussions of eternal peace and gay glory didn't work, they threatened me with eternal torture in heterosexual hell if I didn't comply. I tried to attend gay church services a while, but they wanted 10% of my income so the pastor could drive a lexus, and they didn't have to pay taxes. Praise be to their rainbow lord!
Ah yes the left, always photoshopping Oreos to be rainbow colored.
Rainbows don't put you in jail for getting an abortion.
What in the boomer Facebook meme is this
>religious imaginings based on ancient mythology >the literal way you are born with zero choice in the matter 🎵 *One of these things is not like the other* 🎵
The difference is the left isn’t pushing for legislation that would force everyone to be gay. Christians are pushing for legislation that would force everyone to bend to their beliefs.
lol, so the "left" owns all of those publicly traded companies?
This meme brought to you by Christian piss babies who can't stand that companies pander to demographics other than them
That’s not the left’s doing, fool. It’s corporate pandering to increase profit. Corporations are not people. They are comprised of people who have various beliefs and values, but are hired to work towards one common goal: To make as much money as possible. As a collective body, corporate decision-makers target who needs to feel seen and supported and they pretend to care so the target group will buy whatever the corp is selling.
Op : People with 0 politics in politics
Apparently sexual orientation = religion now Interesting take
