I just randomly remembered how thousands of rightards died on the hill defending that “Sound of Freedom” movie on Netflix.
Millions of leftists have the high ground since your orange Sith Lord frequented Epstein Island, Darth Anakin.
I remember liberals being on the fence about an 8-year-old drag queen known as “Lactatia”, due to his stage name and performance being borderline child-inappropriate. He was one of the performers featured on “Drag Kids”, not “Cuties”. You *might* find a few liberals who strongly defended this, though if there were any I’m going to side-eye them.
Somewhat confusingly, “Cuties” refers both to a French film which criticized the sexualization of young children in the media (which was controversial because they accurately depicted it in order to criticize it) and a Netflix series which was just flat-out the very sort of thing the movie criticized. You’ll likely find some liberal defenders of the former but probably none defending the latter.
The big thing about cuties was that if you tried to point that the movie was about how wrong the situation is, conservative minds shut down. Like they didn't want to understand that it was about how exploiting children was bad and just wanted to use it as proof that Hollywood wanted to sexualize kids, even though it wasn't made by Hollywood.
They had their opinion set from the start.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
