Is America Ditching LGBTQ this Pride Month?

In recent years, a trip into Target on June 1 was the only reminder needed that the month is dedicated to celebrating “gay pride,” but not so this year. Instead of a prominent display of chest binders and bathing suits designed for “tucking” private parts, as seen at Target in the summer of 2023, the major U.S. retailer is celebrating “Costal Classics” with red, white, and blue themed clothing this summer. The shift comes just months after Target announced it was ending some of its DEI initiatives and follows several years of declining revenues for the retailer. While Target appears to have gotten the memo that Americas want a more traditional and less woke agenda, Hollywood will always be the last to learn. The popular HBO show “The Last of Us,” ended its first season with 8.2 million views in February 2023, according to The Hollywood Reporter. But the show’s second season ended with half as many viewers. Why? It might have something to do with the show’s denial of reality. The show received criticism when one of the characters, who is a lesbian, learns that her partner is pregnant from a previous relationship and responds, “I'm going to be a dad.” The season finale drew 3.7 million viewers, falling from 5.3 million when the show premiered in April. On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women” we discuss why these incidents and others point to a shift away from the radical woke ideology toward a desire for traditional values in America. Also on today’s show, we respond to the news for Biden administration press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is leaving the Democrat Party. Plus, the fight to protect life is far from over, a reality made evident by Planned Parenthood’s the latest abortion numbers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
