Conservatives don’t think at all, they just assume their prejudices are true, and demand that you accept them, too.
The new @Gillette ad features a transgender boy shaving for the first time.
It’s a little much to normalize and promote high-school-aged kids undergoing hormone therapy and gender reassignment. Don’t ya think?

The “boy” in this ad is not a teenager, he’s a young man, capable of thinking for himself.
It’s not a “little much”, it’s a “bit late”. We should normalize the decision to be a trans person. It does no one any harm, and it does help some individuals.
That said, it’s a little strange to see progressive social issues being used in an ad to sell razor blades. We should take it, though, since that’s what tools we have in a capitalist system.
I look forward to the day that Tomi Lahren realizes that social attitudes are being manipulated by capitalism, and tweets out her rejection of capitalist values.

Lebensborn Barbie doesn’t need to think! Not when she’s making a career cockteasing pervey, old, white, conservative men who jerk of to fantasies of fucking her while she wears a Ronald Regan mask and recites Joe McCarthy speeches.
What I’m saying is she’s a Golddigger.

Somehow I feel safe in saying (well, typing) that Tomi Lahren has no problem at all with the normalization of the unconstitutional activities of Trump and all of his cronies.

Ah… I had wonder how long it would be before the nutjobs went apeshite…
Incidentally, that’s a real father-and-son in the ad. The father has apparently always been supportive, including “his transition as a transgender man” (New Gillette ad shows father helping transgender son to shave).

You got her name wrong; it’s Trashcan Lannister.

Sharing a state-of-origin with that person is so wonderful.

The ad is sweet and powerful but I cannot help myself, I have to link to “woke brands” by hbomberguy:

Sigh. No one does HRT while a minor, at the most they may take puberty-suppressing drugs to keep unwanted developments from starting, like breast formation or facial hair.
