Right-wingers on Twitter rage about 'gay nutcrackers' and black Santas in wheelchairs

There simply has to be more important things to do in this world than rage at Target for selling nutcrackers with rainbow flags or black Santas in wheelchairs.  I personally blame Elon Musk for this. His takeover of Twitter encourages all of these wannabe social media influencers grabbing clout by appealing to people's fear, rage, and basic stupidity.  They do stuff like this for attention and engagement. That's why I deliberately blotted out their names. They deserve derision, not engagement. 

Technology in the hands of empowered haters is truly a dangerous thing.
