the Song Remains the Same

The Right is right:  men in dresses are a threat to children being sexually abused while they also get indoctrinated at the same time. 

Turns out - shock of shocks! - they're not drag queens or trans folk. 

I'm so tired of the church with this shit. And 2000?  You mean, 2000 who have come forward. The actual number is exponentially higher. It has to be. 

But the abuse by religion is nothing new. The ignoring of it by political institutions is nothing new either.   ......until lately. 

The Right's inability to sate their appetite for tales of trans people and drag queens for some cheap, but seemingly effective political points is mind boggling. That they overlook actual fucking abuse - doing absolutely nothing! - because religion and religious leaders are A). Big Business.  B). the Endorsement the need to get. 

....and B, is really #1. 

And the ignoring isn't a Right thing. Let's see what Pappy Joe - a Catholic - has to say. You'll have to lean in really close to hear - but no worries, I'll tell you:   what you'll hear is nothing. 

The only difference between the Right and Left on this are the Drag Queens and Trans people. Oh, I don't thing the dems are much more progressive on either of those groups of folk, but they just keep their pie hole closed. 

In theory, if the Right (or Left) truly cared about 'pro life' {snicker} they'd care about this issue. But they care about this about as much as they do school shootings. 

No.  No.  Wait. They care less about this, because there are no guns to protect. 

The GOP is pro-birth. They are not pro-life.  The church is pro-boy cherry.  You know something - call it what it is. Say 'boy cherry' and watch heads spin more than Linda Blair in a Georgetown brownstone. 

But fuck you media - let's stop calling it abuse:  IT. IS. RAPE. 

Media skirted that word for Jeffrey Epstein and they do it for the church. And gymnastics doctors. And teachers. And coaches. Consent or not, anyone underage........RAPE.  It is kind of the law.  I mean, not in Alabama, but.........

So, yes, big sprawling headline that will disappear in a few hours along with the story itself. Even if it didn't the lack of comment from the Left or Right will hasten the death of the story.  Yet the problem remains.
