May used the screen name “joebidennnn69″

Ffs

The real ugly bit though:

During a debate on transgender care for minors on the House floor in January 2024, May argued that: “We as legislators have an obligation to ensure that our children have no harm done to them.”

It's always projection with them. It happens so frequently that I'm no longer surprised by these sorts of stories, and why I'm always on-guard whenever I hear a conservative suggest policies around children.

Rules for thee but not for me

I will teach my daughter to never trust strangers, but to be specially terrified of White Christian Conservatives.

This type of public hypocrisy by elected officials should double or triple punishments.

Every single statement they have made about the topic should be admissible as evidence to be used against them in court during sentencing. Every single time they have suggested stricter punishments should be compiled into a list and tacked onto their sentence.

I feel like we're mere months away from someone being labeled "the good kind of pedophile" on Fox News.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 35 points 5 days ago

Isn't that already trump?

"I'm working hard to classify the radical leftist 'Antipedo' movement as a terrorist organization."

To me, that's a very interesting detail. It makes me speculate.

Maybe he thought he was being clever by using a "democrat" username, because it would make him invisible amongst the hordes of demonrat child abusers? Maybe he could even point at his own account at some point and say: see, they're all pedos? Or maybe it even helped him to suppress his guilt, because "a democrat did it"?

Or maybe he just dreams of a 69 with Joe.

Not a single drag queen, yet. Not one.

[–] MyDogLovesMe@lemmy.world 41 points 5 days ago (2 children)

It’s getting to be where you HAVE to be a pedo to be a republican.

A pre-requisite?

[–] ClydapusGotwald@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

Always has been

[–] otp@sh.itjust.works 7 points 5 days ago

Let's be fair. Another pathway is to be born to Republican parents and to never question anything they tell you

[–] Stern@lemmy.world 52 points 5 days ago

Its always the ones you most suspect

[–] the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world 43 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Gee, who could have predicted this?

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago
[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 5 days ago

Its always the ones you most suspect i guess.

You better watchnout what you say about him, he might become the next president

[–] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 24 points 5 days ago
[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 18 points 4 days ago

I'm shocked.

On a side note, how often does this have to happen before being a ultra conservative political figure becomes probable cause?

[–] Noite_Etion@lemmy.world 23 points 5 days ago

How could the left do this! /s

[–] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago

No WAY! This hasn't happened for at least a week. Who could believe it other than everyone.

[–] dumbass@aussie.zone 23 points 5 days ago

If I had a nickle for everytime a conservative turned out to be a pedo, I'd be pretty fucking rich.

So, this must be a prominent antifa drag queen, right MAGA? Presumably the stage name is Pea Defile.

[–] UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

Not a trans person

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 11 points 5 days ago

Ah so THIS is a drag queen, yes?

[–] ClydapusGotwald@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

A tale as old as time.

Tragic but not shocking. 😐

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Whats the point of this article with the redundant title?

[–] BuckWylde@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

Ultra-conservative and child porn. I know, right?

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

The repedocans strike again

[–] 6stringringer@lemmy.zip 6 points 5 days ago

Temu or Wish versions of Epsteinism.
