Once again, not a drag queen.

It seems the church leaders have developed a sizable lead over the drag queens in this category.

[-] Ranvier@sopuli.xyz 11 points 3 months ago

Churches should be required to have supervising drag queens, would help prevent abuse. Priest you need to meet one on one with a kid? Fine, but only if this fabulous queen here sits in the room with you both.

But that ONE time it was a drag queen like six months ago! See! BothsidesthesameSpOnGeBoB.jpg

Every accusation is a confession. They were right, we do need to protect the children, from them.

[-] 0110010001100010@lemmy.world 62 points 3 months ago

Wait, a "religious" person as a child molester? Say it ain't so! This is the one bad apple I'm sure.

Do I need the /s?

No quasi about that.

He confessed to molesting a 12-year-old girl as a 20-year-old.

Zero quasi.

[-] Daxtron2@startrek.website 19 points 3 months ago

Maybe he was dressed like Quasimodo when he did it

[-] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 months ago

Then that was the wrong mode-o

Conservatives are just projectors. Everything they are guilty of they blame on political opponents or demonize: pedophilia, gay sexual relationships, corruption, and not caring about the average worker. That's not to say Democrats don't sometimes fall into these categories, but it's definitely to a lesser extent.

Was he advising Trump back when he was pals with Epstein? Because that would make sense.

[-] androogee@midwest.social 23 points 3 months ago

Christian leaders don't need secret islands, they have a whole flock willing to serve up children and cover it all up

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago

Epstein didn't need an island either.

He wanted an island.

Do you think he only started raping girls once he got the island?

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Dude got paid to help rich people rape poor people, and he made so much money he could afford to buy an island.

Every account of every job he ever had was that he was unqualified and corrupt, and that he was "friends" with someone in a high enough place to protect him. It's very likely that he was a pimp his entire career and that every job he failed to do well can be explained as a cover for his real role.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago

So he fits perfectly into that circle, don't you agree?

[-] sunzu@kbin.run 8 points 3 months ago

Pardon incoming?

[-] cabillaud@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

This photo highlights his weird orangeness just fine

[-] Suavevillain@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

MAGA's base is always linked to that stuff. Pastors, Cops, Youth Pastors and General Republicans.
