always the ones you most suspect.
Projection from the conservatives.
What is it with those people?
Is there some kind of competition to be the most terrible person possible?
Yes. That's the entire point of MAGA.
i would guess a lot of them make connections over the networks that trade in that kind of material.
Yep. It’s called “church”.
Why are all the straight male Christian conservatives trying to fuck children!? WTF is wrong with them.
As someone who was forced to grow up in this Baptist bullshit: It's the absolutely insane level of sexual repression. Sex is a bad word. Don't talk about it. Can't even go dancing, if you're Baptist, because it "might lead to sinful contact between dancers" or "impure thoughts".
Can't drink either. You might "cause your brother to stumble". It's a running joke that Baptists go to bars in the next town over, because nobody knows them there, so they won't be judged.
Can't go to anything worse than a PG movie. Can't learn in school about evolution. Can't go to sex Ed class in school and have to be opted out. Can't be friends with non-Christians because "they're able to be influenced against you by the devil at any time" like they're a Devil Manchurian Candidate.
Christianity in America fucking sucks, but Baptists are near the top of being the fucking worst.
I have studied religions my whole life trying to understand what is really going on. I have always been open minded, but my conclusion is simply it is about control.
My father was a black sheep Mormon so I am very familiar with the pitfalls of their beliefs. On my grandfather's death bed his sons gathered round him to pray. He pointed at my father and said he was not worthy to pray over him. Othering is always an integral part of Christianity.
The worst thing about religion is it steals the work of man to use for its goals. How many people thank God for surviving cancer when it was their fellow man that cured them. Religion is also insidious because it takes credit for morality when it clearly exists without it.
It reminds me of any loser ideology that tries to claim it does things when it has no real power and claims credit when it is not due. Everyone arguing over what Skydaddy is the best imaginary companion is beyond ridiculous.
Well said.
Idk if they are still straight when they diddle pastor boys
I sense a theme with the GOP. Church leaders getting caught raping, youth pastor pedophiles, famous figures and their vast cp collections.
Is the entire gop just a group of pedophiles in a trench coat?
Always has been 🔫👨🚀
"Funny" how the GOP helped spread misinformation about a secret Democrat elite abusing children. It has always been projection.
G eriatrics
O ligarchs
P edophiles
That’s on brand
After the defendant (Sheptock) sent the image of the victim, he told her that he wanted more explicit images of her,” the affidavit read.
“The defendant (Sheptock) then sent her a video depicting someone being physically assaulted, accompanied by a statement implying that he did not want that to happen to her.”
Dude is mega POS
And a MAGA POS.

All religions are a mental illness, and often come with comorbidities.
Oh look another dangerous transgender woman! No wait, it's always either some Pastor or some Trump-affiliated person.

Groomers On Parade. Group Of Pedophiles
His alleged victim also claimed in the court records that she was concerned about coming forward “due to her parents’ strong religious beliefs,” which she thought would lead to an adverse reaction to her taking a nude picture of herself.
This is how predators keep their victims silent: exploit their embarrassment. It's easy to say "Well, they shouldn't have sent that in the first place" but that's blaming the victim and not addressing the issue. A minor was taken advantage of and an adult received satisfaction from it. If this happened to you or someone you know, speak out. Take the power away from the predators. The embarrassment is only temporary because, in the end, it's your well-being that matters.
It’s easy to say “Well, they shouldn’t have sent that in the first place”
The fact that kids don't make good decisions when placed in adult situations is exactly why we have laws to punish adults who exploit them.
Of course it is. CP is a mandatory line item for a typical MAGA resume.
WHY ARE THEY ALWAYS DIDDLERS
Come on, not all singers molest children.
The repedocan party
That seems on brand for MAGA
Same shit, different pedophile
More winning for the GOP!!
Yea, that checks out.
Surprise surprise.
