Advertisers Come Out Of The Closet, Openly Courting Gay Consumers
NPR ^ | 6/29/14 | Sonari Glinton

Posted on 06/29/2014 9:53:04 AM PDT by Oliviaforever

A recent Chevrolet ad made its LGBT-friendly message clear: Against a montage of different families, including single and same-sex parents, a voice-over intones, "While what it means to be family hasn't changed, what a family looks like has."

Yep, the numbers aren’t in their favor. Of course, Gubermint Motors lost me long, long ago.

If they want to gear ads to two percent of the population while the other 98% decide to not patronize that particular business is fine with me.

It's not just 2-3%. You have to also include supporters of the 2-3%, their families, assorted libtards, etc. In any case, I will never buy a Government Motors car.

“A lot of Americans are paying attention. We’re going to make those “openly gay” homosexual boycotts look like a yard sale.”

When?

General Motors lives and dies with their truck sales, as that is where the profit margins are. Gay doesn't sell trucks.

Targetting advertising to Gays is poorly thought out and most likely driven by Washington.

It has all the smell of a silly trendy bubbly business fad.

Homo guys see

Saab - Audi - Mini - VW - Jaguar

as most gay-friendly.

For lesbos it’s

Saab - Scion - Jeep - Subaru - Saturn.

While if it were I, I wouldn’t making any “gay ads” at all, still they COULD somewhat segregate their audiences by placing all their “gay ads” in “gay media” that straight people will virtually never see.

“When do you think Chevrolet will court the Amish?”

I could not care less whether they use different races in their ads, but gearing ads to a person’s sexual choice really annoys me.

“And GM had what, 20,000,000 recalls? They can’t make cars but they can pander to a small minnority. The blueprint of success from Government Motors. “

At GM we are committed to serving the interests of our homosexual customers, so we are proud to introduce our new program: Dive High Risk in a GM Car. That’s right, we’re going to make driving our cars just as dangerous as engaging in homosexual sex.
We’re GM and we’re right behind you (Ben Dover).

This goofing around is raunchy, evil, and in the end counterproductive.

You are quite wrong about the 2% vs. 98%. It’s not that simple.

The central message of “gay liberation” is. “F*** who you want, when, where, and how you want, and if there are consequences, make sure someone else pays”.

The success of the gay rights movement is because of the popularity of this message among heterosexuals.

So, it’s not 2 vs 98. It’s more like 50-50.

"While what it means to be family hasn't changed..."

Right. ''Cause marriage has always been based on the sexual joining of two guys who express their union by doing anal sodomy.

Good point... this did not pop up in a vacuum. Libertine “straight” society paved the way for it.

Perfect!

If you think gay sex is risky, wait until you drive our cars!

It’s an unhealthy abuse of love capacity, an abuse which is more accurately termed lust.

There are many issues involved. Homosexual attraction is a complex evil; it requires a number of things to go wrong before it happens. Roman Catholic teaching puts it rather politely as “intrinsically disordered.” That’s one aspect of the problem. But another aspect is that Satan is busy working to “punk” these people and, through them, the larger society.

American Christendom of all stripes needs to get back into its Ephesians 6 armor if it hopes to fight this evil off. Talking about it being intrinsically disordered is like saying your problem is bullet holes. Well yes, but what do you do about the shooters?

I’ve owned several of those brands myself.

I sure seem to see a lot of pickups in urban neighborhoods being driven by gay/lesbian types. Maybe it is just a Midwestern thing.

BTW, Hyundai/Kia, Porsche and the late Suzuki are seen as the most unfriendly to homos.
