Whole Foods marketing is having a fit for sure but the colors are aligned with LGBTQ colors.

The most obvious situation until proven otherwise is that this is a sign posted in a Whole Foods in Australia and not a hoax.

All I can say is if it shows up here?...Ill make a point to visit WF and use EVERY gender pronoun I can think of...and maybe even make up some new ones.

What do you mean "was"? Millions of people correctly teach their children manners, including addressing adults by the proper terms of "ma'am" and "sir." And they are not going to stop just because a few disordered people want to act out their issues on the rest of society. The people who will have to choose to "adapt" are the ones acting out on their disorders, not the rest of normal society. It's called abnormal for a reason.

From back when even Hollywood liberals had at least some common sense to see reality (guess this movie and actors are wrong now and the libs wanna ban this movie as well as "intolerant") :
