Controversy Erupts Over Macy's Thanksgiving Parade LGBTQ Inclusion

Nearly 17,000 people have signed a petition organized by conservative group One Million Moms, criticizing Macy's for including two gender non-conforming performers in the upcoming Thanksgiving Day Parade. The petition claims that the event promotes the "liberal LGBTQ agenda" and is not family-friendly. The trans performers, Justin David Sullivan and Alex Newell, have faced backlash from the petitioners. Tie-ups between trans performers and corporations have been divisive in recent months, with Bud Light facing a boycott over its partnership with a trans influencer. Macy's has not responded to the petition.
