One Million Moms, the far-right conservative Christian activist group that claims to have millions of members despite having only 4,300 Twitter followers and 101,000 Facebook subscribers (and 582 Instagram followers but who's counting) is hoppin' mad once again.
This time, what's eating them is a lesbian couple appearing in a Volkswagen ad for literally two seconds.
The ad, which originally played during the Super Bowl, details the car company's evolution from 1949 to the present and shows myriad people throughout the decades using and admiring Volkswagen cars.
The 60-second ad includes two shots—which, again, it cannot be stressed enough, last a single second each—of a lesbian couple exiting their wedding and kissing inside a Volkswagen. It happens so fast you could easily miss it if you're not watching for it.

But the pearl-clutchers at One Million Moms think Volkswagen is "normalizing sin" with the ad.
In a truly unhinged rant on their website, which we will not dignify by linking to, the group went absolutely bananas:
"Volkswagen should be ashamed of attempting to normalize sin by featuring two lesbians getting married in their 2024 commercial, 'Big Game.'"
"The ad depicts two women dressed in wedding attire, leaving a little white chapel, hand in hand after their ceremony. Then they kiss in their Volkswagen before driving away."
What's next, pastors trafficking children?! A supposedly Christian president with 26 credible sexual assault allegations?! Oh wait...
Anyway, the unhinged weirdos went on to shriek:
"Obviously, Volkswagen is promoting same-sex marriage to please a small percentage of customers while pushing away conservative customers."
That "small percentage" who support same-sex marriage stands at 71% of the population, including nearly half of conservatives.
The rest of the statement was the usual caterwauling about "homosexuals" destroying marriage and corrupting children, etc. and so on ad infinitum. Their Facebook post about the matter has gotten 18 likes and seven comments as of this writing.
On social media, people found One Million Moms' statement truly absurd.
One Million Moms' website also has a statement about how furious they are over those weird "He Gets Us" Jesus ads during the Super Bowl, which the organization disliked because it "never shared the Gospel."
Hard to please, those million moms.
