Fox News host Will Cain suggested a new LGBT-themed Lego set “could have been designed” by former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard David Duke.
Cain railed against the Lego “Everyone Is Awesome” set, which features 11 purposefully “ambiguous”, non-gendered figurines in the colours of the trans and POC-inclusive Progress Pride flag, in a Fox News segment titled “The Left’s Push for Racial Division”.
Missing the point entirely, Cain said of the rainbow set: “This separation into colour-coding, living up to every stereotype from hairstyle to skin colour, looks like it could have been designed by [former KKK leader, antisemite and neo-Nazi] David Duke”.
