'Trans People Will Always Exist' Short Sleeve T-Shirt, sold at Target

Conservatives found themselves angry today, when they realized that their boycott of Bud Light beer did not stop trans people from existing. The continued existence of trans people was brought to their attention when they visited a Target store, and discovered trans-friendly adult swimsuits and t-shirts with trans-friendly slogans.

Realizing that most adults in America are not irrationally angry that a trans adult can purchase a swimsuit designed for them, Conservatives fell back on one of their favorite strategies, which they typically employ when they realize that the real world, that exists in actual reality, does not match the imaginary world they've created in their fevered brain. And that strategy consists of... making shit up.

Right wing media today was swept with a wave of breathless headlines, articles, social media posts, tweets, and videos declaring that Target is selling "tuck-friendly swimsuits for kids."

Target does not sell tuck-friendly swimsuits for kids.

But facts rarely slow down angry conservatives, still determined to stop trans people from existing.

They also employed another favorite: the repetition of the word "groomer." And attacking Target employees.

Unlike Anheuser-Busch, who threw their trans spokesperson under the bus and have been frantically digging themselves into a deeper hole with each passing day, the CEO of Target defended his new focus on transgender and LGBTQ customers calling it “the right thing for society.”
