The Annual Philadelphia Mummers Parade Mocked Black Lives Matter and Caitlyn Jenner

Ohhhhhhhhhhh noooooooooooooooo !

Every New Year's Day, Philadelphians ring in the new year with a tradition known as the Mummers Parade, an event featuring scores of marchers in elaborate costumers. At the 116th annual Mummers Parade on Friday, the revelers included costumes and dance routines mocking the Black Lives Matter movement and transgender personality Caitlyn Jenner.

One performance run by the Finnegan New Year's Brigade parodied Jenner, featuring a marcher dressed as Jenner fresh off her 1976 Olympics decathlon win, complete with the famous Wheaties box featuring her image. As Diana Ross' "I'm Coming Out" played, a group of face-painted nurses wheeled the actor into the crowd. A crude parody of Jenner in her Vanity Fair cover outfit then re-emerged as Aerosmith's "Dude Looks Like a Lady" played.

The problem is some media outlets are calling it bigoted and homophobic. I'll leave it to you to figure out which ones.

Mummers have been offending whiny pussies for many centuries now. Why should today be any different?
