I read that Lego stopped advertising period. Not just police sets, as was originally believed. Even stuff like Star Wars was stopped, and so on.

lego is one of those companies that doesnt even need to advertise. kinda like nike or mcdonalds: they have zero need to promote themselves. everyone knows they exist, what they are, and where to buy.

Rightist: "Private companies should be allowed to sell what they want and to who they want, as this is America."

Also Rightist: "Lego is stopping sales of a line of toys!? Virtue signaling SJW pieces of shit! ReeeeEEEeEEEEeee!"

*Though you would substitute Lego for a number of companies like Bic, Nike, Disney etc.

There's literally no contradiction in what you've strawman-misrepresented, though. 🙂

It's still consistent. 👆

There is.

That literally has happened multiple times when *insert company* does something Rightist don't agree with regarding a product(s) and they blow their SJW rape-whistles in response.

eg This thread :0

Yup, I jumped on this because it would have been something I supported were it the reason. Particularly after they did this,

"We stand with the black community against racism and inequality," the Dutch toy production company said. "There is much to do. We will donate $4 million to organizations dedicated to supporting black children and educating all children about racial equality."

It's why I laughed. They have not been very good at this lately.

Sure, but what's the relevance of a statement like that?

just questioning why they pour money into advertising in the first place.

That's a fair point I suppose. Though Lego is constantly getting bigger, so it can't hurt.

Lego is a Danish company with liberal Scandinavian values. Why is this a shock to anybody? What is more, why do you care?

You seriously don't know why Whirly cared(or pretended to)? Or is this just trolling?

you seem to care surt. a lot, in fact

Nah I don't, why lie?

I did laugh at folk saying they won't buy lego's anymore cuz lego won't stop selling cop sets

And some were all "my kids love legos, but nah". Virtuuuue!

Because they need to whinge about everything they paint as "SJWing!!1!" in their small heads.

eg They complained and ranted more over Colin Kaepernick kneeling peacefully against police brutality than they complained over the the thug cops who murdered Goerge Floyd.

star wars legos tho

There's not.

You can complain about anything you want but still support the rights of what you're complaining about.

You're wanting to assign "cancel culture" to it but it has nothing to do with it.

TL - DR: "I support Lego's right to do and say whatever they want. But their SJW bullshit is stupid."

Amazing!
