Mars focused on making "more progressive" M&M characters

I didn't have this on my 2022 bingo card as something that society would focus on solving. The US is following the Roman empire to obsolescence ...

M&M characters redesigned for a "more dynamic, progressive world," Mars announces

Twitter - The dumb is strong at Mars
It’s rare Ms. Brown and I get to spend time together without some colorful characters barging in. – Ms. Green

CBSNews -
M&M characters redesigned for a "more dynamic, progressive world," Mars announces
quote:
The most notable changes include the green M&M's redesign, which will exchange the white heeled go-go boots she was given in 1997 for "cool, laid-back sneakers to reflect her effortless confidence." Mars had received criticism for the green M&M's sexy characterization. The green M&M will also be "better represented to reflect confidence and empowerment, as a strong female, and known for much more than her boots."
The green M&M and the brown M&M will have a more friendly relationship, showcasing a "force supporting women." The two characters' dynamic will have them "together throwing shine and not shade," the company said. The two characters have sometimes been at odds in advertisements, but they have also been seen as friends — or more than friends in others, like this viral tweet from 2015 showing the two holding hands on a beach.

They're just sexualizing them. That's what progressives aim for, the sexualization of everything .

This is bullcrap. There have always been M&Ms of color. We need white M&Ms in the peanut and regular packages.
LOL it is frickin candy developed to not melt for use in WWII in warm climates.

Saw a pharmaceutical ad on TV recently. Some middle aged woman that does everything including tearing down her truck. Just busy, busy, busy doing everything. In my entire life, I have only known one woman that would actually work on her car. Good woman but rarer than hen's teeth to find a woman that repairs her own vehicles. What a fantasy woke world the advertising business creates.

well. That's disgusting. Not sure I can eat M&Ms if their marketing is going to make me think of gay stuff. Makes me want to throw up just thinking about it.

BREAKING: Blue M&M now identifies as a Skittle.

They really should be focusing on how to incorporate their product with healthier meals/snacks. Sales are probably down so they are doing dumb crap. I don't buy Mars products now, but I'll try to buy less.

Imagine living in a world where one would concern themselves with whether or not animated caricatures of a candy product are diverse enough.

I hope not because the tweet is from 2015

So the brown and green M&M’s are lesbians? I mean, I’ve rubbed one out to worse before.

The CBS news story was published today.
Not sure why they referenced a 2015 tweet about lesbian snack characters.

I saw an article about this last night. Thank god that the variously colored anthropomorphic cartoon candies are now going to become more inclusive. It's 2022. It's about time.

FWIW, that lesbo subtext tweet was almost 7 years old.

I can't fathom being a CEO of one of these corps and not instantly firing whoever brings an idea like this to a meeting.
