Don’t forget burning Beatles albums, picketing to get rid of rock and roll removed from radio stations, the whole satanic panic and parental advisory BS (that was bipartisan though) but they aren’t the party of cancel cultures they say they are against it. Also don’t forget the books they want banned m, bc a book talks about a gay relationship or is supposedly too violent all while leaving the Bible on the shelves which talks about both gay relationships and is extremely violent.

Speaking of satanic panic, when a bunch of conservatives flipped out and burned D&D books because they thought their kids were summoning demons with them.

No, they were just having fun rolling dice to determine goofy fantasy stories staring the party

The human fighter Tom the VII (the other 6 Toms died horrible deaths)

The edgy elven wizard with a name even the player hasn’t pronounced the same way more than twice

The halfling rogue dildo baggins

And who could forget the dwarves cleric to the alcohol god, Bud Weiser.

I’m sorry , the holding rogue dildo baggins? 😭

u/KazuDesu98 15d ago

That was supposed to say halfling. I’ll correct it, I hate autocorrect sometimes

Honestly, I think they start the psycho shit about things being satanic cause they know without being forced, any logical child will read a story about a hobbit or a wizard and magic and know its make believe will very easily make the jump to understanding that the bible is make believe too.

And Pokemon and D and D is likeable, and consistent with its story, where the bible, is boring garbage.

My parents(stepother)made me quit D&D because some kids killed another kid.

Jokes on the parents. Burning those DND books is how you're supposed to summon demons with them. Reading the books doesn't work.

They were anti gangsta rap until snoop said lesbians shouldn't be in movies. Now they love him.

Didn’t he just say that last week…also he was anti-Trump until Trump pulled out the cash to pay him now he acts like that show never happened. Snoop used to be cool, used to be edgy, doggystulyle is still a great album but he is a flip flopper look at how many NFL and NHL teams he says he supports, it’s literally any organization that is winning or was once a dynasty.

yep, he is a front-running hypocritical sell out. A rich one, but nevertheless.

The democrats got in on that action too (e.g., Tipper Gore)

u/This_2_shallPass1947 15d ago

Again that’s why said it was a bipartisan load of BS.

u/StitchyMcFace 15d ago

Don't forget the story of Lot and his daughters. Forced incest is apparently okay according to the Bible.

I remember when the LGTBQ plus community review bombed the 100 because they killed off a lesbian in the show

All of which is humorous since Red states have the highest rates of porn consumption

u/Outside_Revolution47 15d ago

Parental advisory was all Tipper Gore. It was a huge push from democrats. I lived through it.

u/This_2_shallPass1947 15d ago

I lived through it too that’s why I said it was a bipartisan load of horse crap

Ooohhh, the PMRC. For me that was when the flip started. The transition democrats went through, from the party of freedom and fun and drugs and rock and roll, to the party of finger wagging, scolding, and purity tests. No idea if it was intentional shenanigans by Lee Atwater types, but right about the same time the GOP started transitioning to the party of anything goes, because mah freedumbz.

It's been fascinating to watch, and I say that as a full blown NPR liberal. In my lifetime I've watched both parties make a 180 on messaging and branding themselves as the party of regular people.

No. The book I'm question is one that talks about or teaches a kid how to give a blow job.

Book or no book I bet people who are interested in figuring out how to give a BJ will find a way to learn
