'Critics say' um no, it was blatant and obvious. Why is CBS holding water for ped0s?

The media exposure was worth a simple 'We're sorry'.

Critics say? Anyone who is not a groomer or a pedo says so.

The greatest generation got home from the war and immediately began exploiting their own kids. Sugar cereals with insane adverts was the start.

We are waiting from a similar apology from the entire Democrat Party

You don’t apologize for something like that. You get strung up.

'that critics say sexualizes children.' Are you guys at CBS blind? 'That say' Did you watch it? Do, or can you think critically? Or are you just good at covering up Biden laptop stories?

= Pedophilia

I fixed your headline: “Fashion brand Balenciaga has apologized for an advertising campaign that sexualizes children and promotes pedophilia”

I never heard of them before now! Hmmmm, free publicity all of a sudden!

Balenciaga you can't just apologize it's not like you accidentally tweeted the wrong photo. You collaborate, design you chatted about it sent to production team, media team, you LEGAL department then you did it so it was not a mistake your the mistake dumpbalenciaga savekids

No. You don't get to apologize for that Blatant support of Child Pornography. That is exactly what you promoted and your company should immediately be dissolved. Period. You and the whole agenda being pushed are degenerate pedophiles.

Groomers everywhere

Actually hate kids in ads actually I don’t like it

Hey, what about the Walmart Shooter? Don't Walmart lives matter?

I thought you tweeted you were leaving Twitter🤔

Yeah...they don't give a s**t . They just wanted your coverage

That was no accident

Judging by the people you see in the 'real world' wearing their gear...it is a really trashy brand.

So they’re apologizing for being a conduit for pedophilia?!
