Woolworths SA refuses to back down from supporting Pride Month

“God save us from the indoctrination of far left identity politics”
Real life comment posted on our company mental health month thingies. Voluntary so I didn’t attend but somehow I’m getting the chat.

Who is willing to bet this thread will be going long after Woolworths has packed up their displays, and Pride month is over?

Go up, you baldhead!” 24Then he turned around, looked at them, and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD.
