Yeah, I wonder if there is a term "boogeyman politics". Politicians who run on promises to save people from imaginary problems, like returning the "merry Christmas" phrase or save people from LGBTQ people or save people from abortions or save people from incoming caravans, etc.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

How about this... if you don't like drag shows, don't to to them?

I thought they made the 'fabulous' appearance after the shooting to pull out the bodies.

I have so much to learn. Huh

I am deeply afraid of drag queens. They constantly knock on my door to recruit me. They are worse than JWs. They are collaborating with the invisible plaid squirrel under my bed. They have stolen my tin foil hat. They don't like Queen, despite what they may say. They want to end tv and media choice and have only state run media play The Rocky Horror Picture Show 24/7 and ban remotes to turn off your TV. 

Damn it, my remote got stuck on Fucks Noise again.

Oh for Pete's sake. Drag queens are the problem? Aren't they running out of not-the-problems to blame?
