The intolerance of the self-proclaimed tolerant crowd


By now, everyone has heard and possibly seen on Twitter and/or Instagram the #boycottdolcegabbana or the #boycotteltonjohn debacle by the, oh-so-tolerant liberal gay rights crowd but if you haven’t, here’s a quick recap…[links to all sources used below]

Gay fashion designers and ex-lovers Dolce & Gabbana gave an interview recently that didn’t sit well with other gays like Sir Elton John because Gabbana dared to share his personal opinion that IVF is not how families should be created and that children should have both a mother and a father. 

Oh the horror!!  A gay man who supports a man+woman=baby=family point of view!

Gabbana made it clear he opposed using “chemistry” to make “synthetic children” or to “rent a womb”.  

Here is the [poor] Google translation of the article:




This was just too much for poor old Sir Elton John and his gay lover who have children they are raising together as a “family”.  So distraught was old Sir Elton that he got on social media sending up a war cry against the entire Dolce & Gabbana fashion franchise. 





They must be stopped!! 

They must be made to pay for having an opinion that differs from old Sir Elton!

After Sir Elton John blew his stack asking everyone to boycott Dolce & Gabbana products, others joined in because of course no one, absolutely no one is allowed to have a different opinion than the liberal left.  




If you dare to have an individual thought or opinion that isn’t approved by the Left, you are boycotted instantly for such an infraction against progressivism.

Gabbana fires back at the hypocritical intolerance of Elton John and his groupies on Instragram...



Sir Elton apparently was all talk and no action or he got Gabbana's message loud and clear, because just a few days later he was seen shopping carrying a Dolce & Gabbana bag!





If you don’t tote the line with gay activists and liberals they are like a feeding frenzy turning even on their own.  Remember that the next time you hear one of them speak of “tolerance” or being “accepting” of other people for who they are or having their own opinions.  

These people speak with forked tongues.



In Christ,

Catholic and Boycotting Kmart

I don’t usually get very verbal about boycotting things and I almost never explain my reasons.  Usually I just quietly let my money speak for its self by not giving my dollars to businesses that I know have insulted my God or my Faith in any way.  But today I am going to tell you why I am boycotting Kmart and hopefully give you a reason to boycott them too.

First let me start by reminding everyone of what should be obvious, but is sadly lost by commercialism of the season.

Christmas is the day Catholics honor the birth of God Incarnate with “Christ’s Mass”.  It’s the day God humbled Himself in Heaven and came to earth as a small tender babe.  He put himself in the HANDS of human beings to care for and love and raise to adulthood for the sole purpose of one day being tortured, mocked, beaten and nailed to a cross for our salvation.  The most wonderful gift anyone can ever receive.  The Church knows this, this is why Advent and Christmas are celebrated.

God in Heaven becomes God Incarnate.

Christ’s birth on earth is a day for honoring God, thanking God, celebrating the love God has for us and most of all worshiping God.  Besides attending Christ’s Mass, Catholics also share gifts.  We do this because the Magi brought gifts to God Incarnate:  Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh. 

Christmas (Christ’s Mass) and gift giving are part of our celebration thanking God for loving us enough to come to earth and save us.

Catholics (and all Christians) need to PONDER that for a good long while.  That’s what Advent is for.  

Remember the REASON for the season.

Yes shopping is part of it, but remember WHY we are shopping.

While you are shopping, think also about WHERE you are shopping.  WHO are you giving your Christmas dollars to?

Are they mocking the “Reason for the Season” Jesus Christ, God Incarnate?

If they are, WHY would you give them your money?

Is that not like saying “I am pro-life” then giving a cash donation to an abortion clinic?

Pay attention to WHO you give your money to.


Kmart has a new VULGAR “Christmas” Ad in which men jingle their private parts while wearing Joe Boxer underwear to the tune of “Jingle Bells”.  The Ad is titled "Show Your Joe"...





Men jingling their private parts to Christmas Carols is repulsive to me and insulting to "the reason for the season" in my personal opinion so I will NO LONGER do any shopping at Kmart- especially Christmas shopping.

And for the record, this is not the first time Kmart has thought it would be good advertising to push the envelope... not to long ago they had another ad which played on words making viewers stop and ask "Did they just say what it sounded like they said?"... 



No.  They didn't say it, but they WANTED you to THINK they said it.

The Christmas Magi weren't left out of this years Christmas ads either...


And they don't stop there... no they even use the image of a Catholic nun to push their sales...



Again... vulgarity in advertising will NEVER get me to give a business a dime.

Goodbye Kmart...



Tell me what you think.


In Christ and boycotting Kmart,

Julie @ Connecticut Catholic Corner
