The Golden Arches have just become the latest major corporation to kneel before the radical woke mob.
And they’ve done so even though it is clearly a risky proposition for corporations as Americans are no longer standing for it.
That’s why it was surprising when McDonald’s went full woke with one shocking video.
Bud Light went woke and dropped from America’s number one beer to the 14th.
Disney has seen its stock plummet to its lowest level in 9 years after laying prostrate for radical LGBTQ activists.
Target saw sales, and stock, drop like a rock after promoting a line of LGBTQ clothing geared towards little children and created by a self-avowed Devil worshiper.
McDonald’s must not have been paying attention.
Because clearly they missed the mood of the American public after they posted one new video promotion.
The company recently posted a video on their social media pushing the franchise’s new mobile order and pay app that included quite the woke scene.
The video featured a homosexual couple sharing a large McDonald’s fry with the caption “if that’s not love idk what is.”

And the American people weighed in with their abject silence.
They weighed in by not giving the LGBTQ video any traction on social media.
“The campaign has already flopped, with just 44 reposts and under 850 likes, despite receiving over 3.6 million views,” the National Pulse reports.
And the video raised the serious question of whether or not McDonald’s learned the lesson of Target, Disney, and Bud Light, three iconic American brands that lost billions of dollars in market cap thanks to customer boycotts after the three companies began promoting transgenderism to little children.
Bud Light dove into the culture war through a sponsorship deal with Dylan Mulvaney.
Target promoted girl’s bathing suits to biological males that had a flap to cover up their male genitalia.
And of course, Disney took up the cause of LGBTQ radicals by actively and very publicly opposing Governor Ron DeSantis’ legislation to ban grooming in Florida schools.
Disney then doubled down and went full pro-abortion, only making their woes even worse.
It turns out that the American people do have a line they won’t cross, even in these days of woke marketing.
Targeting children with transgenderism is clearly that line for brands that depend on Americans who live in rural and exurban areas.
McDonald’s at least tried to stay out of the minefield of pushing transgenderism on children, at least for now.
Instead, this commercial featured an adult homosexual couple.
But even so, the backlash by the American people to Bud Light, Disney, and Target showed the American people want mainstream companies to abstain from politics.
McDonald’s likely got suckered into this ad campaign by a marketing agency staffed by woke liberals, just like Bud Light.
These woke social justice warriors produce commercials to try and push their own radical political beliefs, to serve as ideological propaganda, and to troll their political opponents.
Whether or not this latest move by McDonalds results in a Bud Light-style boycott, there is little to no chance this ad will sell any additional fries or Big Macs.
But at least it will allow woke McDonald’s executives to pat themselves on the back and virtue signal about what good “allies” they are to the radical homosexual community.
