Hasbro is pulling its "Trolls World Tour Giggle and Sing Poppy" doll from stores after critics said it promotes pedophilia and child molestation.

Why do you use the phrase critics say You hire perverts

murtazacol hrishisolunke this doll was likely designed+produced+approved by atleast a hundred people at Hasbro and none of them saw a problem

Damn this do be more worrying than covid-19, top priority rn

More childfriendly ? entertainment could be Epstein Island? Normalising naked to children popular TV show for children? Just look at the expressions as they arrive at the bananacabana?

Look at the front of the box: it has a comb on it. It screams “grooming,” as in child grooming! I don’t accept any of their excuses whatsoever! They’re pedophiles.

Removing the Troll dolls is not good enough/ Remove the person or persons who thought it would be ok to make this Doll and Sell it. Just taking them off shelves is in no way good enough. Answer that Business insider.

(((Hasbro)))

If the purpose of that button was for “when she sits,” why not mention it on the box? Not buying their explanation.

It’s interesting that msm is making it out to be “no biggie”! We are not conspiracy theorist’s. We are not overreacting. We will not let you hurt our babies & try and normalize p€dophilia. Fantastic citizen journalist: reallygraceful

Nova76985142 OMG WTF 😡

Obviously a troll works for the troll company. Troll : Durr giggle button goes giggle spot heheh

jmac459 As well they should!

Someone put it there on purpose and because it’s not mentioned on the box anywhere (even if so it’s still inappropriate) that says that whoever was in charge of it was aiming to groom children. Don’t brush this off cause I bet if they raided the makes houses they’d be done for

That is so fucking disturbing wtf is wrong with people

grown adults fuck dolls, that's nothing new.

Right in our faces. Geppetto. Disney.

lowe_adam What’s wrong with you Hasbro

I am willing to bet whoever is behind such represents a demographic with the same hue as slave masters.

Disgusting, and the people okay with this, including those replying here, are scary.

Sick 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Ban Hasbro. Gross, pedo groomers.

ThesePeopleAreSick

Smh

All part of the continued attack to normalize sexual behavior with children.

How could someone in their organization not think there might be a problem with this idea! It shows that Hasbro might need to hire some parents to test their products before they put them on the shelves.

Did they not think that one through?

What the fuck do you think it is... business insider

If pushing a button on these makes someone abuse a child then they have much bigger issues than pushing weirdly placed button

Send one to Joe Biden before you recall this pedo doll. He will enjoy it. JoeBiden JoeBidenIsAPedo Trump2020

No one on the marketing team saw the problem. Production also missed it 😤😤

Who exactly at didn't see the need to mention obvious young child mentalhealth harm and ...approved this bizarre, promotional tweet? ...Unfollowed. business SocialMedia parenting

There’s better things to worry about

'which critics say'. Really?

This is so disturbing WTF is wrong with people!? 😠

Amayy16

That's an obvious location to avoid placing a button Someone with 200k salary approved that too... SMH
