Years ago, the month of June was co-opted by the Rainbow Mafia as âPride Month,â an effort to loudly push cultural acceptance of homosexuality. What began with narcissistic parades and banners spread into indoctrination via mainstream media TV shows and commercials, initially targeting adults but quickly moving toward inculcating children in leftist dogma. The Rainbow Mafiaâs culturally subversive march continues apace, with the latest iteration being the blatant marketing of LGBTQ-themed childrenâs toys and other products.
Recently LEGO announced, âWe have committed to support a number of organizations on an ongoing basis, including UK charity Diversity Role Models which helps children learn about empathy to ensure our future builders are accepting of everyone!â The virtue signal included an image of multi-colored LEGO figures lined-up to mimic a rainbow flag.

Pride Month, a celebration of the LGBTQ lifestyle, occurs each June, and for years now, mainstream corporations with recognizable brands have participated in Pride Month by marketing special products, often festooned with the rainbow flag, the primary symbol of the LGBTQ community.
