If they're looking for large groups who want to "indoctrinate and sexualize" children, they need look no further than the church
Not convenient RE: the (minority) they want to target.
They'll keep hating what the rich tell them to hate; all we can do is bullwark against it.
A few weeks ago there was a post on how much gambling advertising is in Sports these days. I looked on the numbers on Canadian gambling addiction and it certainly seems to be much more widespread.
Don't really think I've really seen any of them complain about that. They just seem have a really unhealthy infatuation about sex.
Does anyone know when being religious stopped being gay?
Iβve talked to people my age all over Ontario and we just assumed it was the kids not being intolerant anymore but it seems weird for them to be enemies
Most popular religions seem to be anti-gay, so I don't really know what you are trying to ask.
20 years ago gay was an insult
If people at school found out you went to church or believed in god then youβd get beaten up/be an outcast
Bro what are you talking about. Christians have been the majority forever. Not believing in God makes you the outlier, not the other way around.
Did you not grow up in Ontario?
I think it was closer to 25 year, maybe even 30 years in some parts. I remember people beginning to realize how bigoted it was to use gay as an insult prior to gay marriage being legalized in 2005.
20 years would have been before 2005 but Harper got elected the first time on the promise of making it illegal again so it didnβt go away after that
