(NewsWars) The Doc Martens shoe brand is under fire for promoting woke trans lunacy with a new boot featuring a transgender person who’s had her breasts removed.
The boots were featured in a photo shared on the official Doc Martens Instagram account last week, advertising a giveaway for the new design by “queer feminist” artist Jess Vosseteig.
The “art” featured on the boots included in the company’s “DIY Docs” shoe collection features a fat female with double mastectomy scars and hairy arms.

The shoes promoting the surgical removal of otherwise healthy breast tissue for the sake of gender conformity were the subject of much backlash on social media.
“Mastectomy scars? Wtf?” one person’s most-liked comment stated on Instagram, with another person adding, “healthcare isn’t mutilation.”
The boots were also strongly criticized on Twitter, with some suggesting a boycott in the same vein as the fiasco Bud Light found itself engulfed in when it partnered with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
“Yes, I asked if they would be offering a vaginoplasty version in the future. I prefer my shoes to have more grotesque mutilations on them,” joked one Twitter user.
Boycott @drmartens

I remember when people who wore Doc Martens used to cut themselves.
Guess now they just get their doctors to do it. pic.twitter.com/7ilR2W8Awu

These shoes go well with a Bud Light.

My tata’s remain in place, and I couldn’t be happier.
I think the only reason to celebrate any mastectomy is that it’ll save a life.

I always wear dr martens, I like their shoes, but this woke culture will ruin them

Another Twitter user called Doc Martens’ post a “for-profit medicalization advertisement scheme that is targeting vulnerable children.”
This is a for-profit medicalization advertisement scheme that is targeting vulnerable children.
Wake up people!
