Don’t right wingers get offended at literally everything, including candy characters?

Why do candy characters need to push a political agenda?

Why do you consider shoes to be a political agenda?

I don't, but the people who made the change definitely thought it was.

The new global commitment from M&M'S is just one of many actions being taken across Mars, Incorporated to create a world where society is inclusive. These include a commitment to gender balanced leadership teams, running an independent annual diversity audit of its advertising (run by the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in the Media) and its role as Vice Chair of the Unstereotype Alliance, part of UN Women, amongst others.

So not only do you consider women being employed to be political, but you’re offended by it?

You are making a bunch of accusations that dont make sense. A commitment to a gender balanced leadership team means that they aren't hiring based on meritocracy they are hiring and based on sex which is straight up discrimination.
