    No, I am not the one who changes my ideas based on what other libs said (pssst, that's what you did in this very thread, any one can read it). You need your talking points handed to you by others so you know what and how to say things.

    To say the merch is now inclusive (which is what mello guy said, you first said wasn't the case, till you saw that he said it and you changed your mind...), means that original merch was not inclusive to gays.

    It's not rocket science however you don't seem to understand.

    You make a claim and don't back it up with an example. Why? Oh yeah, because it's a false claim. I don't see anyone else making your point to me.

    Well, that's not what I said or meant but what I DID say is that your point that the new mech being inclusive means that the old merch must therefore be devisive. That is not a logical argument. Both can be inclusive.

    Nope. Singling out a small segment of the population based on their sexuality is not being inclusive to all.

    Do you have an example of any Democrat calling for or having introduced a bill to arrest or execute climate change deniers. Because there are plenty of anti-gay bills out there.

    And why not? Go ahead and make your argument.
    Here's mine. The LBGT+ community has been criminalized, shunned, hated and ridiculed for centuries and yet they are still here and have finally gained acceptance into our mainstream culture and yet there are small but powerful political forces that still want to sweep the under the rug, vilify and if possible make them criminals again. Disney is standing besides them saying we accept you the way you are and others can show their support also by bying the clothes.
    And you have a problem with that. Why?

    Stop separating people by sexuality, just like stop separating people by race. Don't make clothing to target a small segment and then refer to it as inclusive. It's the opposite. General merch that doesn't target any specific group, religion, race, etc. is what's inclusive. The fact that you can't see that is confusing. I don't care if someone is gay. I don't have a problem with it. Never said otherwise.

    I never said execute, I said arrested. There are plenty of articles out there calling for the arrest of climate deniers, just type in arrest climate deniers and watch them pop up. I don’t know of any Democrat politician who has a bill calling for the arrest of deniers, but I’m sure it would have many backers in the liberal world. Are there anti gay bills out there calling for the arrest and execution of gays? I think anyone introducing such a bill would be putting their lives in jeopardy.

    You think that's an argument? It's not.
    Here's why. First...."Stop separating people by sexuality, just like stop separating people by race" and then you go on to say "I don't care if someone is gay. I don't have a problem with it. Never said otherwise" ....yeah, you clearly did. If not.....why do you care about the clothes. I gave the example of a small powerful group of politicians DO care about both gays and blacks and fight against them all the time but you didn't address that because you probably don't think the problem exists. As far as your point that general merch that doesn't target any specific group is laughable. All clothing merch is targeted to specific groups. Men, women, children, tall, short etc. yet it's all inclusive.

    Are we now required to think about gay sex whenever we see a rainbow? How said gay people get to control rainbows and their significance?

    Recent story about an art teacher who had her students do "rainbow" pictures to celebrate sexuality. So I ask again is that the new standard, if we see a rainbow we are supposed to think about gay sex?

    I asked you first

    Why would they? Why would heterosexual people where rainbow colors if they represent homosexuality? What colors or what flag represents heterosexuality and do you know where I get such clothing? Is Disney noting which cloths are for heterosexuals?

    A couple problems here.

    1) there are straight perverts and there are members of the LGBTQ communicate, the vast majority in fact, who aren't perverts. Also, being perverted sexually isn't a crime. Lastly, perversion, gender, and sexuality are all separate things despite what you believe.
    2) if you don't like the products Disney sells, don't buy them
    3) don't presume that just because you don't like the products that EVERYONE else hates them
    4) also don't presume that just because you THINK everyone else should hate them, that you're right
    5) I've often found the one truest thing in life is people project onto others as they see themselves in private, so what I get here is you would prefer a world that indoctrinates people to be straight and only straight. Why? I can't say, that's a question only you can answer.

    Do you think corporations should have free speech? Your conservative buddies do, so I presume you agree with them. And yet what I love about your freedom loving types is you only love freedom when people make the same choices as you. In case you're wondering, that's not freedom. Disney can make this choice and they may be rewarded by the market or they may be punished by it. Why do you care?

    It's probably overcompensation after being discriminated, bullied, and having violence done to them. Just a thought.

    It’s typically only minority groups that need to something to stand out as different
