I'll admit I'm surprised. I really thought hard evidence of him being a pedo could come out and there'd suddenly be a wave of explanations justifying why fucking kids isn't so bad. The backlash starting without the evidence coming out yet gives me a tiny sliver of hope.

There are lots of people who truly, legitimately, believe that they need to protect kids from sex. They mistakenly believe that includes pressing gay people, banning books on sexuality or teaching about sex at school. They think acknowledging the existence of gay and Trans people is a threat to those children. So they vote for abhorrent policies.

But for all they get wrong, they're consistently about protecting children from "sex predators", and that child rapists are the worst of the worst.

This one might stick.

Lol, no. They just use it as an excuse to hate. If it was really about protecting kids, we wouldn't have child poverty.

We wouldn't have kids in foster care for years.

We wouldn't have people voting for trump in the first place.

I don't doubt that they believe they are helping kids, but it's still brainwashed sheep following cult behaviour.

But, let's welcome them to reality.

If this is what finally brings him down…. Good… but honestly, holy shit.

Errrrr yeah all these deeply religious people are consistent about protecting children from rapists. Hence the Catholic church...

I hate to tell you, it’s not actually “backlash,” until it’s on Fox News and they’re saying “sex with children,” otherwise it’s just this week’s thing—like that shooting someone on fifth avenue comment, or the pussy grab rape confession. They actually love it.

Remember, according to many right wingers, everything Musk says can be taken as objective fact.

Jimmy Kimmel, apparently, had Stormy Daniels come on and point to the most accurate one of a selection of dildos, if you want to get the information without needing gory details.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Yikes. Even that’s too close.

There'll be ketchup for every wall, and a poop for every pant!

Someone should ask him why he supports socialist programming

right wing grifters/ media is already telling people to forget about talking about epstein files, they already reorientated to instruct the masses to "they dont care about it"

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

And a week will pass and they'll forgot, they'll be on to attacking someone new. They're so easily manipulated.
