In a recent statement, the most powerful figure in right-wing news has revealed that Mars Incorporated set out to make its M&M characters as unattractive as possible in order to represent right-wing politics. This comes after years of speculation surrounding the candy company’s intentions with their beloved mascots. The statement came from an anonymous source, who said that “Mars set about making its M&M characters as unattractive as possible because when you're intentionally repulsive, it's clear you've got the right politics.” This is a surprising move for a company known for its colorful and cheerful chocolate treats. The decision was made in response to the growing political divide between left and right-wing ideologies. While many companies have been vocal about their political views, Mars has remained silent until now. The source went on to say that “Mars wanted to make sure that everyone knew which side they were on without having to actually come out and say it publicly.” This revelation has caused some controversy among fans of the candy brand, with some claiming that it is inappropriate for a company like Mars to be taking sides in such a divisive issue. Others have defended the decision, saying that it is important for companies to take a stand on issues they feel strongly about. It remains unclear how this will affect sales of M&Ms or if other companies will follow suit by creating politically charged mascots of their own. Regardless, this bold move by Mars Incorporated has certainly sparked conversation and debate across social media platforms and beyond.
