TW: falsely associating LGBTQIA people with child predators.

I feel obligated, as a child protection professional, to point out that this response by Babylon Bee editor Joel Berry to @mattnightingale is wildly untrue. It's not only untrue, it's a dangerous lie. Study after study has found that queer people do not harm children at higher rates than other people. Instead, a very different picture emerges of the average abuser, who, it turns out, is a religious adult male in a heterosexual marriage:

Nothing against Pedro Pascal, but I haven't watched much of his work.

So I present to you...

@JanelleMonae as liberation theology books:

How Christian Nationalists Harm Children:

• Handling child sexual abuse in house instead of reporting it to the authorities
• Promoting corporal punishment as the only effective and godly form of discipline
• Teaching women and girls that they should submit to men and boys.

• Teaching children that mental illness is the result of sin and denying the physical reality of mental illness
• Promoting child marriage and child trafficking
• Deregulating homeschooling to the point that child molesters can legally homeschool in all but two states
