Oklahoman’s GOP platform has literal conspiracy theory shit in it.
Any nutter with an “R” next to their name can win whatever position they want. It’s straight ticket Republican, no matter what.
Everyone hated Mary Fallon, but they still voted for Kevin Stitt.
Do you know any kids who have been married at age 12? I do. And guess what? They’re still married.
Republican Mike Moon
And John Rose met his wife judging a 4H contest.
(Fun fact: you can’t file for divorce as a minor)
Also as a mandatory reporter in the state of Oklahoma… hahhahahahahahah. I just wrote an affidavit about how seriously CPS takes shit.
Ugh, it looks like they intimidated the girls and harassed them for years afterwards.
But I also wonder if there are bodies on that island.
Have any of the victims ever come forward?
That’s an odd piece of this puzzle - where did those children end up? Dead? Threatened into silence (like the girl who had a lawsuit against Trump that was dropped around his first election?)
Have you heard of 996? It’s shorthand for a common work schedule in China: 9am to 9pm, 6 days a week
So a typical American teacher’s schedule?
They are still getting followed.
His shit about trans women in women’s sports got Lia Thomas’s records stripped from her, and I doubt any school is going to allow trans women to play anything in the future.
This thread is getting really confused about their theology; if you have an hour to spare, the Knowing Better video is quite good.
420chan was fun.
Don’t forget r/picsofdeadkids and r/beautifulcorpses
R/rape was a place for rape porn for the longest time. Posting to Reddit for advice coping with sexual assault is 100% a bad idea, as you will mostly get DM’s and chat requests from people who want to get off to your trauma. I believe the moderators of those “support” communities also get off on it too.
There are still currently beastiality subreddits and r/guro. The beastiality subreddits post simulated images/hentai, but the discussions include advice on how to participate.
People tried to defend r/jailbait by saying it was girls close to 18. (Uh akshually it’s ephebophilia 🤡) It was not. It was mostly 13-14 year olds or younger. Actual pornographic images weren’t posted there, but it was clear that the admin team and others were running trading rings.
Didn’t Reddit even ban Gawker links for a while for doxxing Micheal Brutsch? Redditors always fell over themselves to defend all of this shit as “free speech.” R/ShitRedditSays was considered worse than any of these subreddits.
They have been covering up child sexual abuse for decades. Making children face their abuser, destroying records, not cooperating with the police…
They discourage their members from going to college or seriously pursuing a career. They practice disfellowshipping and shunning, where you lose your entire social circle if you leave or even do something as minor as be known to have watched porn. They trap people essentially - you work a low wage job like cleaning windows because you aren’t supposed to pursue higher education, you are expected to provide free labor for their real estate scheme, and also the hours and hours of free labor going door to door.
They let their children die rather than have blood transfusions. Hospitals and doctors have had to come up with ridiculous “bloodless surgeries” to keep these people alive, because they read a single verse in the Bible flat out incorrectly.
JW’s are a cult. The proselytizing doesn’t convert anyone, the purpose is to have the members routinely rejected to convince them of the evils of society. There is nothing good about the organization; there are certainly individual JW’s who are good people, but it’s a fucking cult.
There are a few. One down the block from me collaborates with the LGBT youth shelter and has progress flags.
Methodists tend to be nice - the couple of times I got to go to a support group for LGBT teens was at a Methodist church, and this was almost twenty years ago. Unitarian Universalists are basically atheists, pagans and hippies that like the structure of meeting together on Sundays. Quakers have always been very politically active, mostly on the correct side of things.
The Southern Baptist Convention has basically been running our politics for decades. Literally founded to support slavery, created the “pro life”/forced birth movement from whole cloth, and fought integration and civil rights tooth and nail.
Tom Cruise is gay, and that’s the wrong “tone” for Scientology. So he has to pretend to like women.
Same with Travolta.
You know a lot of men buy those bad dragon type of toys? Probably more than women…
And the same types of sites definitely sell fleshlight type of toys.
When I watch Mulan, I shut it off before the reveal and pretend that Mulan never gets outed. I am so thirsty for gay trans man romance :(
Being a kid on a long ass car trip, and imagining things.
I would tense my leg muscles to “jump” over tree shadows.
Bro - I was literally a fucking teacher during the peak of that moral panic. I spend more time every day with teenagers than half of you on this thread do. Every kid knew it was a fucking joke. A handful of children actually did it on purpose, and like every moral outrage/hysteria it became “teens are doing this wild crazy thing!”
Yes, teenagers do dumb fucking shit all of the time. It’s not the shit the media picks up on for the viral clicks.
The real shit teens are actually doing is vaping shady carts and creating massive group chats to bully each other with naked pictures. But that doesn’t sell the same kinds of ad impressions as “there’s a stupid TikTok video that when viral so we are going to assume this is a massive regular thing that hundreds of children are doing.” Talking about those issues involves parents having to, you know, parent but instead it’s gotta be about stupid shit.
The real “hiding under a rock” is being distracted by the newest stupid TikTok video instead of dealing with the things teenagers actually do.
Did you know that cognitively delayed teenagers exist?
Check real quick - I think “gullible” is written on your ceiling. Watch out, I hear human traffickers are putting fentanyl laced roses on car doors.
Our state is captured by the oil and gas industry.
The FBI was literally invented because the bombings/murder of Osage Indians to get oil rights was being covered up by state politicians and police.
The OERB funds a ton of science education, and they do not want you taking about climate change. They are required by the state to contribute to education, so they do this buy running fancy workshops where they give supplies to educators (like, I got thousands in dollars worth of chemistry equipment - this is a big deal when my supply closet had baking soda that would have been expired when my dad was in high school…) They teach you there that fracking doesn’t cause earthquakes, that the warming climate can be explained by Milkanovitch cycles, etc etc.
Oklahomans aren’t given the education the need to not fall for this shit, and it’s on purpose. I would not be surprised if the oil/gas industry was involved in spreading the weather weapons conspiracy. Oklahoma has always been a playground for wealthy oilmen.
