Stopping ADULTS from receiving Life Saving Healthcare is EXACTLY how we Save The Children!

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 54 points 11 months ago (3 children)

You're joking, but they literally believe that.

They believe all trans folk are pedophile groomers that are brainwashing children into becoming trans by sneaking into bathrooms and school sports teams, so they want to kill us to Save The Children.

Meanwhile… actual pedos are running rampant and just walking into the front door of locker rooms…

Jim Jordan, I’m looking at you.

[–] Soulg@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Jordan was not the one accused of abusing kids. He's accused of not doing anything to stop someone else from doing it.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Children? Fuck Children!

Yeah, part of the problem is that a significant portion of conservative leaders take that sentence way too literal, in every single way.
