The conservative Christian group One Million Moms has demanded a boycott of the popular musical film due to its "openly queer" characters and its "tremendous amount of witchcraft and sorcery."

----------------------------


In an email sent to its followers, One Million Moms wrote:

“Four of the film’s main characters are openly queer or gay in real life, or at the minimum, these actors have spoken about their queer experiences.”

“Universal has now decided to be politically correct instead of providing family-friendly programming.”

“As moms, we all want to know when Universal is attempting to desensitize our children by normalizing the LGBTQ lifestyle.”

This is presumably a reference to stars Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, Bowen Yang, and Marissa Bode, who are all LGBTQ+, but none of the film's characters are explicitly queer and there are no queer elements to the storyline.

4. 1MM - Why haven't you donned the handmaiden's uniform yet?

Just so we know who you 1MM folks are, out there.

[Srkdqltr]

5. Good luck with that.

[dlk]

6. No one is forcing them buy movie tickets

Who do they think they are to censor what others choose watch at the movies?

Better to channel all of that energy into something positive.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

7. what's worse is that they want the movie boycotted because the actors are gay .. wow... BIGOTS

so basically boycott every big movie?

[dlk]

10. They're bullies looking for relevance

No one should put up with it.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

8. well their other big project is banning books... decide what others should read.

[dlk]

11. Apparently, they've never heard of the internet...

[Archae]

9. Isn't "One Million Moms"

Only two busybody women who found a "cause?"

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

15. its a small group

[Initech]

16. I thought it was 10 white guys in St. Louis with Facebook bot accounts.

[33taw]

12. Yet, they send their children to churches where children are frequently sexually assaulted.

[DJ Synikus Makisimus]

13. Rock'n'Roll was sinful beacause it's 4:4 time, too.

God's music was 3:4 time, remember? Religion's schtick doesn't change much. You can fool some of the people all of the time.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

20. When I was a kid my looney neighbors thought Milton Bradley games were of the devil due to the game Green Ghost

[Initech]

14. Fuck right the fuck off, One Million Moms.

[sheshe2]

17. My goodness, get the smelling salts!

I am going to rent it from Amazon and have a girls night.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

18. it's very good. you will love it. but still in theaters though

[sheshe2]

21. I can't wait!

I prefer to watch it at home with a glass of wine and take out food.

[Hekate]

24. Me too. I'm not big on theaters any more.

[SheltieLover]

32. I'll go see it again next week

Loved it the 1st time!

These "moms" need to stfu & mind their own damn business.

[eShirl]

19. The characters are fictional, therefore it is false they are gay in "real life."

They want to blackball LGBTQ+ actors.

[pstokely]

22. just a low budget moms for liberty

one meddling mom

[Hekate]

23. Morons. I bet they don't let their kids read or view Harry Potter either because of witchcraft.

[B.See]

25. Wasn't particularly planning on seeing it. But now

we DEFINITELY will.

Kudos, one million assholes.

[Skittles]

27. well I wasn't going to see that movie but

NOW I JUST MIGHT

[Mike Nelson]

28. Ha-ha!

... this will make more people want to see the film. Free promotion and publicity! Also, if people refused to see stuff because gay people took part, then they will see nothing. Not just Wicked and Bewitched... also The Waltons. One million moms will have nothing to watch.

[usedtobedemgurl]

29. So, have they called for a boycott of The Wizard of Oz?

Baum was a huge racist and even put it in writing! Or maybe racism is one of the values they want?

[BeerBarrelPolka]

30. Good thing

Good thing Elizabeth Montgomery isn't alive to see this happening.

[maxrandb]

31. Wait until they see some of the Hallmark Christmas movies

[hatrack]
