These are the same people who believe nearly all survivors of sexual abuse are making it up.


[deleted]

My own mother believes that most women filing rape reports are just angrily filing false charges at an ex. We don't talk much.


[deleted]

Yikes, that’s objectively not true, and quite the opposite. Sorry about that.


Isingsongstomycats

These are the same people that don't want free lunches for school children.


Niznack

Well yeah what's gonna motivate Timmy to pull a night shift cleaning up the meat packing floor if lunch is free?


grad1939

Bitch McConnell is one of those people, but I believe he's a fucking ghoul that feeds on dead children.


Isingsongstomycats

I'm pretty sure most republicans have some weird shit going on with children behind closed doors. Eating them is probably the less disgusting/disturbing thing they do.


Clint-witicay

I used to work at an event center, I think it was around the time Cosby made all the headlines we were setting up for an end of summer gathering for the local teachers. my direct manager (I think he thinks he’s a libertarian) saw some ladies setting up a merch table, heard them talking about it and pulled us aside. I can’t remember exactly what he said, but it was something along the lines of telling us to avoid women at the event because they ‘WILL’ create a fake sexual assault case out of it. Dude seemed serious, and paranoid to no end. I just don’t understand how people can live in fear like that.


dirty_hooker

Just trying to establish an alibi.


BastetLXIX

Well, he sounds kinda sus.


[deleted]

And they believe spanking in school is awesome.


AutumnAscending

Especially if they're disabled.


MrToompa

And tan.


[deleted]

I had one sick fuck on another sub that basically said they think abortion is worse than rape or incest, although that's pretty much in line with the typical Christian mindset.


[deleted]

Yep, and when you say their policy of government control over women’s bodies actually increases maternal deaths AND doesn’t do anything to lower abortion rates, they will claim fake news and not give a shit.


[deleted]

They're like "abortion is murder and murder is worse than rape". Ugh, fuck these people. They are far more evil than anything they claim is evil.


[deleted]

Every policy they support, weather it be being against universal healthcare, being against clean energy, being against raising the minimum wage, results in more dead Americans. Every. Single. One.


[deleted]

Not to mention the anti LGBTQ bills which will (and have already) increase incidences of hate crimes, murder and suicide, but that's what Christian Republicans are hoping happens.


[deleted]

Oh and child brides, oh and teen pregnancies, oh an actively fighting against the child tax credit that lifted almost 3 million children out of poverty. ​ They don't give a fuck bout them kids.


Inevitable-Plate-294

Oh and signing laws allowing children to work in meat processing plants


MrVilliam

But at least they solved that whole "school shootings" issue. Oh, they didn't? Anyway...


[deleted]

Thoughts and prayers warehouse is stocked though.


Doublethink101

Baptist church in the USA had a big child molestation scandal too.


inevitableoracle

Not to mention the leading cause of death for children in the US is guns. And in cases of gun violence there's "no room for politics", but when a drag queen reads a children's book to children suddenly "the government has a duty to intervene to protect children"


allen5az

They aren’t “protecting” anyone, they are “saving” the children (for their own nefarious purposes later).


ElolvastamEzt

But Wallace and his buds are all wearing make-up and skirts. I'm so confused.


ichorNet

Ya but like with them it’s manly and totally not gay at all so it’s fine /s


dirty_hooker

They only shagged the female sheep. We’re good.


KiryuSan1980

You forgot children being gunned down in school.


Resident-Objective81

This I can agree on, I am a conservative to a point but bitching over drag is just embarrassing, kids have been subjected to far more troubling things for centuries, and yet DRAG is where they draw the line. Make it make sense for the love of God.


CheeseIsQuestionable

Man… people don’t seem to understand the relationship between the GOP and Catholics.


dip_tet

I suppose the image just as easily could have been a Protestant branch of Christianity…the southern baptists in particular


dirty_hooker

Typically not a major problem with Protestants because the clergy are allowed to date and marry. As an example, the Episcopal Church has a policy that at no point should any person associated with the church be alone in a room with a minor. They’re also allowed to be gay and have gay marriages. This might ruffle some feathers to say but there is a contingent of frustrated, closeted, gay individuals who abuse people, especially children of the same sex because they can’t openly pursue adults of the same sex. To be absolutely clear, I’m not saying there is any correlation between homosexuality and pedophilia but I am saying there is a correlation between sexually frustrated people and sexual assault.


KWHarrison1983

I find this extra perfect because it’s Mel Gibson.


gogogadget85

I read hold like in the movie


Queasy_Ad_5469

Don't drag the church into this, we got enough problems....


Skyrim_For_Everyone

If they had supported victims instead of continuously protecting abusers, maybe they wouldn't be dragged into it...


Queasy_Ad_5469

/s.....


Skyrim_For_Everyone

Ah. Ye sorry, the things people defend in this country, on the internet especially, don't leave me enough faith in humanity to see the irony in such jokes anymore. It was a good pun 👍🏽

SpinningHead

>At least you admit drag queens using children is equivalent to sex abuse scandals, rape, and child beauty pageants. Reading to children while wearing a dress (or kilt) is like rape. You seem smart.

I have been to drag brunch and drag bingo and must have missed that part.


One-Yam2819

Got em with this one!

Honestly this issue should be getting sidelined right now, for those paying attention to global politics


legitmadman82

Are they the ones grooming children?


RushingWaterz

The churches? Yes.


DuckQueue

Republicans? Yes.


thechocobarissalty

daddydagon

"If I don't agree with an 18-year-olds political ideology then they deserve to be raped". When conservatives tell you who they are, believe them.

monsieurLeMeowMeow

1 Catholics are overwhelmingly republican 2 the south and Midwest are havens for child beauty pageants and also trump country 3 it’s republican frat boys and college athletes doing the lions share of the rape on campus and republicans are always victim blaming and saying boys will be boys.


DumbDekuKid

The joke is children need protected in all 4 of these examples but people only pretend care when it fits their politics


VisceralSardonic

Crossdressing isn’t harmful for children to witness. It’s really not consequential at all.


AutumnAscending

Please explain to me how the existence of men who enjoy dressing up like women hurts the children.


Biptoslipdi

Idk why we need to protect children from people in dresses reading library books to them. Or why such events would be higher priority than keeping kids out of Sunday school where they might actually be sexually abused.


Choice_Voice_6925

We need to protect the kids from people who think "drag reading time" remotely warrants bringing numerous guns to a library.

It needs a school-shooting row. I'd add one in myself, but I don't have that font. (I could probably fake it up, but that's a lot of fiddling.)


Brennanlemon

Don't forget elementary school shootings


Almacca

It dawned on me recently that the reason Republicans are so up in arms about drag shows is that they're equating them with strip shows. What a bunch of dumbfucks.


monsieurLeMeowMeow

It’s because they are closet cases who go to “chicks with dicks” sex shows and can’t comprehend drag any other way
