Nike's "Pride:" Woke Company Goes All-In on Transgender Surgery for Minors

To be an "ally," you now have to support the surgical mutilation of children.

Okay, then this is easy: This is where I step off the Tolerance Train.

I am not your ally. I am your enemy.

Thank you for clarifying the situation.

Nike will celebrate Pride Month by hosting a panel discussion with a surgeon who said he performed "gender affirming mastectomies" on minors, a leaked email obtained by The Daily Wire reveals.

The email begins by stating, "This year's theme is Together We Are Undeniable. The LGBTQIA+ community continues to fight for equality -- their fight to be themselves."

It goes on to explain that the theme "centers around determination; celebrating icons of the community and the progress we have and will continue to make in light of recent attacks and restrictions on the community and their allies."

The Portland-based corporation will host a panel discussion with Dr. Blair Peters, a surgeon at the Oregon Health and Science University, who has admitted to performing "gender affirming mastectomies" on minors.

...

In a now-deleted tweet from last year, Peters said he had "performed gender affirming mastectomies (top surgeries) for 3 young adults and adolescents" in one day.

Peters makes another reference to performing sex change operations on minors in a video titled "Meet OHSU's Dr. Blair Peters," where he discusses the experiences that motivate him as a surgeon.

Peters, who self-identifies as "queer," cites an example scenario, saying, "I have an adolescent patient who hasn't been going to school ... and they come back to clinic two months after top surgery ... thriving all of the sudden."
...

But Nike's panel discussion is just one of several events the company is hosting to commemorate Pride Month. The corporation is also hosting a "family friendly" drag story time on July 13. The event description reads, "Join us at our inaugural Pride Community Fair, spotlighting local queer, women, and minority-owned businesses." It goes on to read, "You will have an opportunity to cultivate an undeniable sense of community and belonging with your Nike teammates through activations like ... a family friendly Drag Story Time."

Nike pushes BLM heavily because their most important clientele is young black males.

I wonder what young black males think about Nike's groomer agenda.

I sure hope one of those conservative/Christian rap acts doesn't put out a viral rap about it! That could be bad for Nike's disgusting business!

BTW, I confessed a couple of years ago that despite my hatred of Nike's "corporate values," I continued to buy their shoes, just because I was familiar with them and knew my perfect size in their shoes. (Knowing what size shoe you are lets you get deals online without worrying about having to send them back.)

Well, a commenter suggested that I try New Balance Fresh Foams, and I did, and I switched. The sizing was the same.

Most recently I've switched to Asics Gel Nimbus. (Same sizing as Nike, too.)

They're now my main "normal" shoe, apart from the barefoot shoes from Within.

But I'm Nike-free. Thanks for the recommendation, Unknown Commenter!
