Because it never was about children, they're just an excuse.

*an excuse to harm people who don’t think like them.

Their olive branches turned to spears.

[-] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

They were never olive branches. They were grasping claws to try and make you act like them, not to understand a different perspective. Once they realized they couldn't pull more people over, the spears come out. It's what a desperate loser does when they become the minority: Try to restore majority control, even if that means literally changing the numbers of people who count.

Right. It's about forcing the types of people the backwards of society are most uncomfortable with into the shadows, in the name of "saving children," the same children they don't give two shits about

It bothers me how many different ways republicans are hypocrites, and yet none of them give a damn.

Drag queens teach people and especially kids how to look beyond initial appearances when forming judgments and reactions. This devastates the GOP.

There is no logic behind it. We do ourselves a disservice by treating their warped morality as anything other than bigotry that should be squelched.

Because they think that if the kid gets pregnant they should get married. Meanwhile they fear that the child may be “corrupted”. They see marriage as holy or normal even if it happens too soon.

Melanie used logic. That was Melanie's first mistake.

Girls must be taught to be objectified and controlled. Not learn to be inclusive or to think for themselves from books.

Its not about protecting children from abuse and manipulation, its about protecting children from growing up into intelligent, compassionate people who won't vote red.

my sister once did one of the [hopefully] non-pedophile ones. it was so weird and unpleasant and frivolous and strange at every stage -- a hybrid of awful stage mothers / dance mothers / cheerleading mothers plus very very insidious and insane body shaming

Reading transfers knowledge and in their handmaid's tales fantasies ~~human incubators~~ women don't need something so distracting

It was about homosexuality only.

Cause a-dig-dig-diddlin kids is a-ok as long as you do it a straight way like God intended.

Edit:Please may nobody quote this comment out of context.

Why doesn’t Tim Pool get mad about this?

[-] Alteon@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Because Tim Poole is just as much of an alt-tight sleezebag as the rest of the alt-right conservatives. He's such a fucking fReEtHiNkEr. Tim Poole can eat all of the bags of dicks. All of them.
