Religious right meltdown/conspiracy theories about LGBTQ-themed LEGOs make for enjoyable reading

The anti-LGBTQ industry is having a hissyfit . . . over LEGOs?

Earlier, I was cynical about the upcoming LGBTQ-themed LEGO blocks, but I am now on the bandwagon for them because of how hysterical they are making members of the anti-LGBTQ industry. The American Family Association's false news source, One News Now, featured an article about them and I found it extremely amusing.

Here is a snippet:

With the pro-LGBTQ toy being recommended for ages 18+, many critics are concerned about the actual contents inside the new product’s box and its appropriateness for youth, but the designer of the Lego set, Matthew Ashton, insists it is for all. "[I] wanted to create a simple little set with a powerful message of love, inclusivity and acceptance… so here it is! #lego love to you all!" tweeted Ashton, who is also a Lego vice president of design. He made special mention one particular Lego figure. “[I designed the purple figure to be] a clear nod to all the fabulous drag queens out there," he said, according to WND. 

 As seen by the above excerpt, the article itself is rather tame. The fun stuff comes in when One News Now features a sidebar of two "concerned activists" simply having fits about these LEGOs: 

 "Like no other time in American history, parents have to be alert to what is going on around their children. This culture is at war with God, and the spiritual and moral rebellion has even infected toys. Christian parents had better prepare themselves to properly disciple their kids if they have not already done so, because thousands of precious souls are at stake."  - Ed Vitagliano, executive vice president American Family Association 

 "It's apparent that even toy manufacturers are attempting to indoctrinate children by exposing them to the LGBTQ lifestyle. Why can't LEGO let kids be kids instead of glamorizing a sinful lifestyle? "LEGO is confusing our innocent children by attempting to normalize this lifestyle choice, which is not only irresponsible but also dangerous to the well-being of our children. Toy manufacturers need to remain neutral and should avoid aiming to please a small percentage of customers while pushing away conservative customers." - Monica Cole, director OneMillionMoms.com

Oh the drama! When do they target Bugs Bunny for all of the times he appeared in drag?

And then there is the far-right site World Net Daily (or as it's better known as, World Nut Daily). I skimmed the article because I knew that the best part would be in the comments section. As I guessed, it was filled with individuals displaying their displeasure about LEGO. If you get offended easily, please don't read the following. However if you don't, you'll miss reading my reading my 'snappy' comebacks:

The colors are great, but LGBTQ perverts will spend tens of thousands of dollars on these toys and then just lose them up their butts. (Don't be shocked. Homophobic attacks almost always includes a dig on how they think gay men have sex. True story. I've had more bigots worried about my butt than all of my five boyfriends combined)

Sickening and perverse, and sadly our resident dems in WND approve the whole demonic agenda (Any Democrat who is a regular at World Net Daily needs an exorcism, enema, and a complete psychological overhaul)

 I'm sure there's an extra two, one for bestiality and one for pedophilia. (Talk about unoriginal. I have never understood how anyone can connect being gay with having a desire for animals and children. Although, I have had some dates with guys who've either acted like a spoiled three-years old or have turned out to be some really mean bitches.)

 Amazing!!! Alienate 90% of their marketshare to appease 10% of the people who think other peoples bedroom activities need public recognition. 2 Peter 3:3 - Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. No Legos for my Grandson!! (Because it's written right there in the Bible that LGBTQ-themed LEGOs are a sign of Jesus's return . . . or something like that)

That's it! I'll never watch "Lego Batman" again. BTW, what's the "pride" in the "queer way"? Really? Pride? It's another example of their lack of grounding in reality and contorting language for their agenda.  (He'll never watch 'Lego Batman' again? What was his excuse to watch it the first time? )

Hey, there's another post here that made a really, REALLY good point. Normally, all of these blocks are held together by a "male-to-female" type of design. So what's this new set like, and how is anyone supposed to fit anything together when all parts are male or all parts are female? If some do get mixed together (by accident, no doubt), will those 'playing' with the sets be offended and refuse to 'join' the parts? Ah, these lefties just don't think, do they? ( This poor fool thought he/she was being clever. Yet all I see is someone looking at LEGOs and thinking about sex. And they say we are the perverts.)

"Everyone is awesome" What an absolutely uninformed statement. So, in this queen's eyes Hitler, Mao, Stalin, Genghis Khan, Vlad the Impaler, the Assyrians, cannibalistic Africans, Native Americans, the human sacrificing Aztecs (and others), the KKK, child molesters/rapists, thieves, murderers, et al are all fabulous. All that is needed is for Lego to create a set including them. No, they were evil - pure and simple. When you make such a categorically general statement, this is the logical conclusion. BTW, sexual perversion denies reality making it evil.  (Too late. Genghis Khan, Vlad the Impaler, Stalin, Mao, and Hitler already have action figures. I couldn't find any Assyrians, or 'cannibalistic Africans,' but I did find a few murderers and one child rapist -  Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, and Michael Myers. NOW, what's your problem with festive, colorful LEGOs again?)

And my very favorite comment. The grand prize winner of ALL comments today is so long that I am only going to post two sentences of it:

WOKE TO THE ANTICHRIST = DEAD TO GOD, JESUS THE CHRIST: In the name of inclusivity, no matter who one loves when will Lego dedicate a lego set to President Trump and his supporters and/or Biblical personalities, say the 11 disciples, minus Judas who "loved" the Devil more than God, Jesus the Christ, the one God passed the morsel to at the last supper to indicate he would be the one who betrayed him. Many corporations decades ago confirmed their allegiance to the Antichrist system, and this was confirmed in their hiring, promotion and their employment manuals, which is why they are presently full steam ahead, colluding, conspiring and coordinating with the Antichrist Biden dictatorship to violate your human and constitutional rights in requiring you to wear an ineffective, dangerous, unhealthy, unsanitary, unreasonable, burdensome face diaper/burka in order to purchase basic items of sustenance for human survival, and will soon attempt to do the same by requiring Chinese bio-weapon virus vaccine papers to do the same. (Well damn. I thought we were talking about LEGOs.)

If you ask me, the LEGOs are relatively tame. Especially when compared to the folks who oppose them.
