'Cancel Culture.' Not just for liberals. eHarmony, Uber Eats draw ire of anti-LGBTQs. (Page 1/2)

Liberal snowflakes, bla-bla-bla liberal snowflakes bla-bla-bla liberal snowflakes. It's been one of this forum's most oft-repeated and dumbly misused and abused refrains.

More like liberal snowFAKES.

Here's some text at the end of a new NBC News report that I am shamelessly exploiting to add to my post count and light up the "rinselberg" screen name.

While many have applauded eHarmony’s “LGBTQ epiphany,” the company’s “Real Love'' campaign has put it in the crosshairs of the right-wing Christian group One Million Moms. The group, which is part of the conservative American Family Association, launched a petition Jan. 29 criticizing the “I Scream” commercial as an “attempt to normalize and glorify the LGBTQ lifestyle,” which it calls “unnatural and immoral.” . . .

The organization often opposes LGBTQ-inclusive programming and advertising. In October, it protested an Uber Eats commercial featuring Olympic gymnast Simone Biles and nonbinary “Queer Eye” star Jonathan Van Ness. In 2019, it targeted Disney/Pixar’s “Toy Story 4” for including a scene of two moms dropping their child off at school, and it called on Hallmark Channel to remove an ad for the wedding planning website Zola featuring a same-sex wedding.

The impact of OMM’s campaigns, though, is questionable at best: ”Toy Story 4” earned more than $1 billion worldwide at the box office without removing the offending scene; Uber Eats is still running the Jonathan Van Ness commercial; and after briefly pulling the Zola ad, Hallmark reinstated it and apologized for the “hurt and disappointment it has unintentionally caused [when the Hallmark channel temporarily stopped showing the Zola wedding planners TV advertisement.]"

"eHarmony's new inclusive ads are enraging some on the right"

A faith based organization is certainly entitled to express their opinions. That is guaranteed in The Constitution of The United States of America. It is covered in one of the amendments, the first one, in two distinct phrases.
That is completely different from the "cancel culture", which seeks to prevent the free exercise of our God given, constitutionally guaranteed human rights.

Really why even care?

If someone wants a relationship with someone of the same sex pretty sure it's just a checkbox.
Then it's a matter of filing in your profile to attract the right **** sucker / cooter licker.
As long as I am not reprimanded for not participating in the eharmony same sex shenanigans then I don't give a flying rats ass.
But if I was of the mind to join eharmony and checked the box for female companionship and suddenly found my inbox full of profiles of male **** suckers.
Well I would be very disappointed and take my business elsewhere, I would probably give them an unfavorable review.

But I suspect if you do sign up for eharmony you will find just like the other online services it is full of catfish, and while you may eventually get your dick sucked it's going to cost you way more than you expected.

Perhaps you should just try talking to someone first, you know like somewhere outside of your house.

Maybe it was a mistranslation and probably said "If you take this shot you're ghey."

I got banned from eHarmony. One of the questions asked what I would like most in a woman. I answered, my d&*k.

It's been done.

Some "self-identified" here tried suing a dating site in Toronto because they couldn't get laid a few (dozen ?) years ago......They got laughed out.

My dick, my choice !!!!!
