Extremist anti-LGBT activist Theodore Shoebat is not happy with the latest edition of National Geographic, which features a cover story on a nine-year-old transgender child, and he is calling for the editors and publishers of the magazine to be burned at the stake.
In a video posted on his website yesterday, Shoebat ranted that the young girl is “diabolical and evil” and a “little Nazi Hitler” who wants nothing more than to kill Christians in gas chambers.
“The kid is obviously evil, obviously a reprobate, obviously just diabolical,” Shoebat bellowed. “You’re a freak. You’re a little demon. You’re a little Nazi Hitler — This little freak would not mind sticking people like me in a gas chamber.”
“This is sick shit,” Shoebat continued, “and this is the problem that I have with the First Amendment, the freedom to do whatever you want. In the Catholic Church, the whole damn crew behind National Geographic would be tried and once they are found guilty, they would be burned at the stake.”

So... you're calling the nine-year-old hitler, but she's the one who's diabolical and a demon?
Are... are people like this even aware of the outside world? Cos it's like Teddy here thinks the nine-year-old is doing this specifically to spite him, and for no other reason.
There's a highly-polished mirror above Shoebatshit's monitor. It's the only fucking explanation at this point.
A child is looking at gender reassignment. That is comparable to the Nazi holocaust HOW?
How the fuck can people go through their lives hating everyone? Shoebat's soul..whatever; the best part of him...must be a twisted and withered husk by now.
As for his "argument," there's nothing coherent enough to rebut.
How very dark ages of you. Should we also torture Pagans and atheists and hang witches? And you just said you want to burn her and others at the stake. You have no fucking right calling anyone else a Nazi or Hitler you fucking hypocrite.

“This is sick shit,” Shoebat continued, “and this is the problem that I have with the First Amendment, the freedom to do whatever you want"
At least he's honest about hating first amendment
" In the Catholic Church, the whole damn crew behind National Geographic would be tried and once they are found guilty, they would be burned at the stake.”

You make good arguments against the Catholic Church.
@creativerealms
Indeed. While I would say that 9 is a bit too young to declare that you're trans (especially in this day and age where people throw it around without thinking), and I find it to be a bit insignificant for National Geographic (though I haven't read it recently, isn't the subject of this magazine usually animals and habitats?), I would not go and say that she's Hitler, and I would certainly not wish anyone covering her to be burned at the stake.
The irony is that the only reason the writers of this article feel that this is necessary is thanks to people like Shoebat over here. Does he realize that to be part of a religion of love and peace, you have to actually advocate for love and peace?
@ Some Christian Anon:
Um, no. Based on Shoebat's past posts, peace and goodwill are not even in his scope. He has a narrow vision; cramped, mean, limiting.
Repost by accident.
SORRY!
As opposed to Hitler's little known twin, Ally Adolf? (I feel like that should be a meme.)
I love how this worthless fuckwit goes on at length about all the millions of people he wishes he could kill and then throws out "Nazi Hitler" as an (redundant) insult. That's like a Catholic calling someone a "Christian Pope" as an insult.
Hey, my first submit went through! Guess that means I filled out the submission form right.
@Scratch
That's exactly what Teddy Bats thinks; like his father before him, Ted is a raging narcissist who does not understand that not everything other people do is about him.
@Some Christian Anon
The thing about Teddy is that he honestly adheres to some weird hybrid of Catholicism and Cromellian philosophy, where happiness, stability, and even life itself are not even considerations, the only thing that matters is serving Teddy's god. I fully imagine that when he runs for the office of Jesus, that he will not only declare atheists, feminists, gays and the transgendered enemies of the Church/State/God/Teddy - which he has declared is what he wants - that he'll also add laws criminalizing the consumption of foods he doesn't like, sports teams he hates, and anything else that disagrees with him.
What you get from America after a few years of news and delving into the fundamentalist world is this.
To them a Nazi is only someone who is in fact and deed NOT remotely like a Nazi, while they themselves are complete fascists fitting WW2 Nazi values nearly 100%.
It's no wonder fake news has finally hit a level that concerns even some Conservatives now, the constant rebranding to shift blame to others has led to this totally dishonest and delusional view of history and current affairs.
little Nazi Hitler
...he Tweeted whilst in a gas chamber. [/Doug Piranha-levels of sarcasm]
he is calling for the editors and publishers of the magazine to be burned at the stake
...and has that child personally asked that you be burned in an incinerator, Wally Shitbat? Yes or No.
Enjoy your MC Escher-esque multi-dimensional paradox.
When they ask questions they themselves daren't answer, for fear that they'd ultimately realise that they have no right to think the way they do, the fundies just make our job easier for us.
Shoebat, like Trump, benefits from all this free publicity. Just wipe him off the bottom of your shoe, and move on.
First, isn't "Nazi Hitler" redundant?
Second, how does this loon conclude that a frelling child would be up for gassing people because they happen to be transgendered? Are you really that convinced that anyone you hate must invariably hate you to the same or greater degree? Is that how you justify yourself?
And lastly, isn't it amusing that someone exercising their first amendment rights to spout an unpopular, even hateful sentiment, decries the first amendment?
Is anyone else picturing the judge from Ghostbusters 2?
this is the problem that I have with the First Amendment, the freedom to do whatever you want.
But you want everyone to have the freedom to do what you want them to do like a proper little fascist, don't you? I really hate people who believe in freedom, but only for themselves to dictate what everyone else should do.
@Psycho Tits
... is nothing more than toying with his own words and philosophy, no different from saying you'd laugh if there was ever a flood in the Ark Park area and Ken Ham got trapped in his fake boat. If you're looking for any kind of sympathy or even civility for the monster who routinely advocates killing hundreds of millions of people for reasons that boil down to scarce more than "just 'cause" then you may as well give up now.
@ Shepard Solus:
Don't mistake caution for any desire to promote civility to Shitface. I know what posters are doing.
I also know that we're hitting an era where far more people than usual or serious in their desire to kill specific outgroups. My own belief is that genocidal thinking can become a memetic disease as bad as any physical disease, and just as indiscriminate. In other words, we can catch that disease here if we don't take precautions.
Having read this again I am actually more convinced that Shoebat is mentally ill, and should be monitored by the authorities. Perhaps airing his crazed rantings here is not the right thing to do. I don't know, just my opinion.
I want to make Theodore Shoebat, Alex Jones or David J. Stewart go through forced gender reassignment surgery, Dr. Nick style. I will give him a pair of fake tits and cut his dick off, but leave his testicles on him to make sure he still gets horny but can never orgasm again, making him permanently sexually frustrated. He shall wear a diaper and constantly shit and piss himself, and have his fingers cut off. He'll also have his vocal cords cut out. He'll sleep in a crib and be given to a sexy all-female family to be taken care of. He will also be renamed Sissy. This is what all three of them deserve.
*eyeroll* Oh, Random! The...edge; it...cuts.
It's always interesting for a thing like me to encounter someone naive enough not to recognise the potentially lethal power of words.

You think you're punny, don't you? Get it? "Punny." LULZ4EVA.
Got a question for you, punnyman: Do you think you could kill on orders? (That's rhetorical. You could. Everyone here could. No one here, or anywhere else, should ever forget that.)
People like this guy Shoebat are, to my mind, totally beyond redemption. But,at least he probably means what he says despite how fucked up it is.
With the emergence of Trump and his Trumpettes we're seeing evidence of what we always suspected. Scratch a conservative and you find an asshole who thinks anyone that isn't a straight, white Christian is less of a human being. Anyone who doesn't look like them, act like them and think like them isn't as good as them.
A 9 year old being transgender is too young, only after puberty does it make sense as most transgender, "feelings" I guess, disappear after that. If it still is around after puberty, then yes be transgender for your own sake.
Any earlier is irresponsible to the extreme.
@Kamism
I wasn't aware boys and girls only felt like such starting around the age of 12. I must have gone to a school full of nothing but exceptions to the rule.
You're thinking of sexuality. Though even some aspects of that begin manifesting earlier. My first crush was at five, for example. I had no idea what to do with that attraction, of course.
@Kamism
Nobody in their right mind puts a child that young on hormones, it`s not a kid`s "feeling" it`s a medical decision made by couple of specialists only after a lenghy diagnose. Still until puberty it`s nothing but hormone blockers which are harmless at their stage.
Also as to the age at which a child can perceive their own sex, it depends heavily on the given kid, with me for example it was as young as 5 year old which needles to say made my life a fucking hell for years.
Calls someone evil for not minding sticking people like him in a gas chamber(even when they've said nothing of the sort), but then goes on to encourage other people to be burned at the stake.
If I face-palmed with strength relative to the hypocrisy, I'd give myself a concussion.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
