Andrea Mew does some great reporting about the shenanigans taking place at Target. Target is the seventh largest retailer in the U.S. They offer various things tailored to the community’s needs. For example, this June, they are celebrating LGBT Pride Month. Andrea summarizes some of their specialties:
“This lineup includes kitschy graphic tees with slogans such as “They She He” (featuring cartoon images of naked people), “Trans Pride Trans Power,” “Trans People Will Always Exist,” and “Queer! Queer! Queer! Queer!”’
And further, she writes in The Federalist:
“For wearable goods, there’s a “Pride Baby Bien Proud Body Suit” for your newborn.”
The agenda is absolutely dogmatic and indoctrinarian. There is no hidden strategy. From birth, Target has been shaping her theological principles to nurture and admonish a generation of fictional characters. Ultimately, this entire paradigm can only stem from a universe whose god creates men in various images to replicate one another in disuniformity.
The entire cart of items reaches the sickening point quite early, and as the list ensues, it becomes vomitable. It is unmistakable that there is now an entire market for LGBTQ entities, and Target stands quite near the top in its forthright attempts at societal sexualization.
Target is playing its cards with the knowledge that this market continually increases. The most recent Gallup study indicates that 7.1% of the American population now identifies as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or something other than heterosexual. This number has doubled since the 2012 Gallup numbers. The times are a-changin’ and so is the natural establishment of thousands of human bodies.
Target is telling her story; she is taking every thought captive to the sexual market. She is building an empire around mutilation and gender dysphoria. She is–for lack of a better term–targeting a growing consensus among secularists that sexual identity is a dynamic to be explored rather than a dynamic determined at birth.
The culture wars are over. As Doug Wilson pointed out, we are now in a cultural revolution. Revolutions are won through regenerative acts of baptisms into newness of life and thought and a sacramental practice that is an offering of praise. We must tell the better stories in our society. And all our stories must start with the first creative act in human history.
