The musician trolled the conservative backlash against Target by feigning offense over a 'too cool for school' shirt.

Just a week ahead of Pride month, Target caved to conservative temper tantrums and moved LGBTQ+ merchandise to the back of their stores in many states.

Additionally, some of the retail giant's 2023 Pride collection was pulled completely from both the sales floor and the website amidst homophobic backlash.


But musician Lil Nas X just gave offended bigots a taste of their own medicine while simultaneously calling out their ridiculously immature behavior.

The rapper, who came out as gay in 2019, began his tweet by mirroring conservative sentiments:

"Can't believe Target is supporting this nonsense, I'm never shopping there again..."

But then he added the punchline:

"My son is not 'too cool for school.' These shirts are ridiculous."
"He is going to school and he WILL learn."

Viewers of the tweet applauded Lil Nas X's satirical rant.







And others followed suit, partaking of the mockery.



Of course, Lil Nas X is no stranger to trolling small minds, especially when the target is homosexuality.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
