    Yes, they are think of your children. This is why they invite the Tate brothers to come chill in Florida.

      Hasbro said they’d make it “genderless” naming it “Potato Head” and just provide parts so the kids playing with the toys can choose what attachments to put on in order to make it look more like a “Mr,” “Ms,” or just some mix of both.

      Apparently it would only be an addition to the existing Mr and Ms line, so it wouldn’t even be replacing them.

      Conservatives then went on a tirade online complaining that the left was trying to destroy traditional family roles and indoctrinate the children by preventing them from learning the valuable lesson of family from the Potato Head toys.

      No, this isn’t satire, they actually got mad over this.

    To be fair, teachers sneakily telling people’s children at school that they might be trans is something to be very concerned about.

    I don’t even think this is a right-vs-left issue, but common sense.
