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 12 points 2 weeks 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.

[-] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

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

He has not been criminally charged, but Texas’ statute of limitations does not cover sexual offenses committed against a child.

Sounds like the pressure now should be on the local district attorneys that are failing to charge him for molesting a child.

[-] MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 75 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] 0110010001100010@lemmy.world 63 points 2 weeks 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?

[-] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 59 points 2 weeks ago

No quasi about that.

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

Zero quasi.

[-] Daxtron2@startrek.website 18 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe he was dressed like Quasimodo when he did it

[-] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 weeks ago

Then that was the wrong mode-o

Do not diddle kids, it's no good diddlin' kids🎶

Weren’t you paying attention?

It was just some petting, no intercourse

[-] snooggums@midwest.social 16 points 2 weeks ago

Just a little sexual assault.

[-] meco03211@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

Turns out I may have committed some light child molestation.

[-] rayyy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

It was just some sexually motivated petting

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

The word you were looking for is "raping."

(Let's not normalize pedophilia by using words that describe sexual acts engaged by people who aren't pedophiles.)

[-] lets_get_off_lemmy@reddthat.com 30 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 22 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] androogee@midwest.social 22 points 2 weeks 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 2 weeks 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 10 points 2 weeks 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.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago

"Spiritual" advisor. That's like sewage advising nuclear waste.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] sunzu@kbin.run 8 points 2 weeks ago

Pardon incoming?

[-] cabillaud@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

This photo highlights his weird orangeness just fine

[-] Suavevillain@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

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