Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Came here to say this.
Not that fascists care at all that others point out their hypocrisy. They don't hold themselves to any standards, so if they are hypocrites, it simply does not matter.
I had a friend who was radicalized during the pandemic by LoTT's original account, and he doesn't seem to care about the fact he likes yuri and loli stuff, all while calling LGBTQ+ people "pedophiles". He just responds with the gigachad meme and a "who cares". (Ironically he does think of male-on-male shota as pedophilic, likely he just calls sex acts he doesn't like as such.)
Had to look some of those terms up (ETA: and, uh, yuck). Still don't know what "LoTT" is?
But yeah, the right goes ALL IN on hypocrisy when it comes to their Qtarded nonsense. They don't care about kids being trafficked, at all, they just want to smear others with terms they know most will find revolting.
Even if Gaetz was caught, on video, balls deep in someone underage, they'd still support him. How many of theirs have these problems, besides Groomer Gaetz? Donnie himself of course, even talking about his own daughter FFS. Then there is Hastert. And Roy Moore.
LoTT = Libs of TikTok
Oh right, I forgot about that weird woman.
I went to go find you a list, searching google for "republican pedophiles" and... got distracted. There were 422,000 results and then Google says "It looks like there aren't many great results for this search". Uh, Google... Google... don't make me use another search engine.
I did find what I was remembering, granted - not a truly great source but seems to be largely sourced, if you care to venture back towards Reddit for a minute: https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/vgmary/texas_gop_adopts_shockingly_explicit_antilgbtq/id27rvz/
Can you explain Yuri so the rest of us don't have to look it up?
I'm assuming it's not a King of Fighters character.
"Yuri is a Japanese media genre that focuses on intimate relationships between female characters, often with lesbian themes."
Oh. So just lesbians. That's not weird at all. I thought it was going to be some other type of underage bs
Well that's the wikipedia definition, I think it is really common for the relationships to be of students, maybe ambiguously aged or in college in the plot but appearing young.
