One Million Moms (OMM) — the boycott-happy anti-LGBTQ hate group with only 93,000 social media followers — has launched its latest campaign against Whole Foods for supporting Drag Queen Story Hour, the delightfully queer children’s library program where volunteer performers dress up and read books to kids. And this time, they’re encouraging violence against everyone involved by basically saying that the program facilitates child rape. In its usual overwrought and alarmist style, OMM writes: A retailer that once promoted organics and clean...

Hysteric fuss raisers One Million Moms is targeting Whole Foods after the company sponsored a drag queen storybook hour. Whole Foods sponsored the storytime as part of Atlanta Pride 2019, and it was hosted by Mayor Keisha Bottoms and drag queen Terra Cotta Sugarbaker. The event itself did not take place in a Whole Foods market itself; rather, the queens read stories at City Hall. That raised the ire of the Moms, which now accuses Whole Foods of being part of...

The homophobic group One Million Moms is back at what they do best, pointing out so-called injustice against heterosexuals in the name of saving their children from unnecessary exposure to same-sex anything. This time they have sunk so low as to call for a boycott of Disney’s recent release “Toy Story 4” because of a quick scene where two lesbian parents – in the background – drop off their child at kindergarten where Bonnie, Woody’s new owner, goes to school....

Homophobic action group One Million Moms has selected its newest target: the lovable characters of Toy Story 4. The group, an arm of the American Family Association (itself a notoriously homophobic organization) has a long history of anti-gay campaigns, including boycotts of JC Penney over hiring Ellen DeGeneres as a spokesmodel, and Marvel & DC comics for featuring gay characters in their magazines. One Million Moms also has a history of grossly exaggerating its membership. Despite the name, it contains...

Disney has become the target of yet another religious right boycott threat after a barely noticeable background moment showed two women dropping their child off at kindergarten in Toy Story 4. “Later, the moms return to pick up their child who gives them a hug. The scene is subtle in order to to desensitize children. But it is obvious that the child has two mothers, and they are parenting together,” Monica Cole, the leader of One Million Moms said. The organization, best...

A conservative Christian organization is outraged by an “offensive” shampoo ad that featured lesbians and has launched a campaign against the company. One Million Moms (OMM) is an initiative of the America Family Association and focuses on media that it deems inappropriate for children, often because it shows LGBTQ people. They are frequently outraged that LGBTQ people exist and that artists, media corporations, and advertisers choose to acknowledge that fact every now and then. And this week they’re angry at this cute...

Disney cartoon series Doc McStuffins featured an interracial lesbian couple, and One Million Moms are not happy. In a first for a Disney Junior show, the most recent episode of the cartoon series featured same-sex parents. The episode, titled The Emergency Plan, was centred around teaching kids what to do in an event of an earthquake. Rather than featuring a mother and father, however, it featured two parents – voiced by Wanda Sykes and Portia de Rossi – trying to re-unite their...

One Million Moms does it again. That hive of reaction against "trash", "filth" and "indecency" were in the news again (yawn) over their attack on "American Girl" magazine, by Mattel of Barbie doll fame, and in particular an article they did about a young girl working with a charity for foster kids. That girl was Amaya Scheer, and that charity was Comfort Cases, run by one of her dads, himself a former foster child. Oh wait, what? One of her...
