Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green has ignited a storm of controversy after blasting Netflix for allegedly pushing a “toxic transgender agenda” on children through its series The Babysitters Club.
Green, a father of four, went on an angry tirade after learning that the kids’ program — rated suitable for children — includes storylines that shame characters for “misgendering,” glorify transgender identity to young viewers, and even show hospital staff treating boys as girls.
In a heated Instagram post, Green unleashed:
“ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! My kids are supposed to watch something light and fun, not be brainwashed by this trash. Netflix is trying to destroy our children’s innocence. This is DISGUSTING. CANCEL NETFLIX.”
Fans Back Draymond: “He’s 100% Right”
Green’s explosive comments immediately lit up social media. Thousands of fans and parents echoed his anger, with many declaring they had canceled their Netflix subscriptions on the spot.
Some of the most viral comments read:
- “Finally someone with a platform is speaking out. Draymond is right — keep this ideology away from our kids.”
- “Why is Netflix sneaking political agendas into children’s shows?”
- “Canceled Netflix tonight. Enough is enough.”
Netflix Under Fire, But Silent So Far
Despite the swelling backlash, Netflix has so far remained silent, refusing to respond to Green’s accusations. The company has previously been criticized for sliding political and social themes into family programming, but the outcry from a high-profile NBA star could mark a turning point.
Media watchdog groups have already picked up the issue, with some calling for government hearings into “indoctrination in kids’ content.”
Draymond Green Steps Into Culture War
Known for his fiery competitiveness on the basketball court, Green has now extended that same intensity into America’s culture debates. By speaking as both a father and an athlete, he has turned himself into one of the loudest celebrity voices against Netflix’s children’s programming choices.
Whether Netflix bows to the pressure or doubles down remains unclear. But one thing is certain: Draymond Green just threw himself into the center of one of the most heated cultural battles in America today.
