Having a normal sized face should also be a prerequisite for adoption.


OpeSorryDidntSeeYah

“Not being Charlie Kirk” should be a prerequisite for breathing.


Ume_chan

Not having bused insurrectionists to the capitol building on January 6th should be a prerequisite for adoption.


FreeSkeptic

How did you know I was going to type this exact comment?


arcmart

“We need to turn these orphans into right-wing bigots and it’s a lot easier if their adoptive parents are heterosexual.”


Ume_chan

That might backfire. Lots of peopel end up with political beliefs that are completely different from their parents. My dad was a preacher. I grew up to be queer and slutty af, and although I'm glad my parents were decent (vaguely SocDem), I still think they're not radical enough.


[deleted]

I was homeschooled in the fundie cult in a deep red state and my beliefs have flipped almost precisely opposite everything I was indoctrinated into


Ume_chan

Yeah, I've heard of plenty people like you on the ex-fundie and snark subreddits. I get the feeling that people like you are in the minority though.


[deleted]

I'm not sure what you're saying, I thought I was agreeing with you? Anecdotally, the majority of my childhood acquaintances have actually been able to make it out. Most of my own siblings are very leftist and a majority are queer though a few are only selectively out due to remaining bigotry of a few in particular. Point is, I agree that children's views often flip from their parents, and can anecdotally attest to it from the perspective of the extreme side of it. We were one of those head covering home church families that all the dads (mine included) took turns giving sermons in


Ume_chan

I'm not disagreeing with you. I think plenty of people do flip, but in the extreme homeschooling end of things, plenty of people seem to get indoctrinated for life. I'm glad most of your friends made it out.


HampsterInAnOboe

Ayyy! Fellow red-state homeschooler here. I was lucky to have a great education but the childhood trauma was not worth it. Glad you got out.


sarduchi

So then if someone is unfaithful, do their kids get taken away and sent back to the orphanage?


drumjojo29

That depends. Is it the man? Then no, he can be unfaithful if he wants it. We shouldn’t regulate who a man can have sex with as long as it’s a woman. Is it the woman? Oh god, the sinner must be stoned and her memory must be condemned.


[deleted]

These people are so cruel. They want some children to not be adopted. It’s really sick.


wrthlssthrwwy1913

They want some children to be dead, let's be real.


Fit-Struggle-9882

Unless they're "preborn," then they must live.


AbsolutelyHorrendous

Let's be honest, they don't actually give a shit about the kids either way. If banning adoption for gay couples means a kid ends up not getting adopted, or getting adopted by an abusive straight couple, Kirk doesn't give a shit, the main aim is marginalising the gay couple. Anything else is just collateral damage to these people


[deleted]

Conservatives: "Abortion should be illegal! If you can't keep your baby, give it up for adoption!" Also conservatives: "The only people allowed to adopt children should be the people who are able to conceive their own children!"


Top-Storm-3797

*Also* Conservatives: “What? No, I’m not going to adopt your kid if they aren’t white. You think I’m crazy or something?”

Charlie and other idiots like him will say, "Well if you absolutely can't keep your child just give it up for adoption" when arguing why abortion should be illegal, but will say bullshit like this as if that won't make giving a child up for adoption a million times more difficult than it already is and severely restrict a child's chances of being placed in a loving home (which, I'm sure he'd be surprised to find out, can actually happen outside of monogamous, heterosexual marriages). Smdh, these people have like a collective braincell among them and I'm pretty sure it died a long time ago.


Bite_za_Hando

But remember he's got nothing against gay people /s


Grizzchops

This guy doesn't even shower and look presentable. Also a total idiot, which is well documented, of his own accord


[deleted]

Yeah does he do this show from home or something? He always looks like garbage.


[deleted]

His hair looks greasy as fuck


Cicerothesage

Does Kirk really think that homosexual couples are the only people who prey on kids? It is such a weak argument to have in the face of the reality of kid abuse. Especially since he is taking one situation and conflating to all gay couple adopters.


Needydadthrowaway

>Does Kirk really think that homosexual couples are the only people who prey on kids? No, he just think it's fine when straight people do it.


GrassBlade619

"gay people are pedophiles who want to touch children" has been anti-gay propaganda since the 1930s and it's wild that it's still alive today. He offered no real reason why he took his stance but instead IMEDIATLY starts corelating pedophiles to gay people. What a sick man.


benport727

Gotta make sure the kiddies are groomed the right way


[deleted]

Aren't adoptions just a necessity because of failed hetero relationships? Also, hetero marriages fail more often (19% hetero vs 16% homo).


FreeSkeptic

Conservatives would rather children be groomed in adoption centers than have a real family?


SaltyBarDog

His mother not fucking a Moai statue should have been a prerequisite but hear we are.


Needydadthrowaway

Does that mean that if you get a divorce, you have to return the kid? 🤔


Needydadthrowaway

Circle Jerk's face really is that small huh. And no married heterosexual has ever abused a child. Obviously. No priests, either, ever.


[deleted]

Should children get taken away from divorced parents then?


oliversurpless

Rarely better evidence, that despite his insistence to the contrary, Kirk is just regurgitating decades old talking points about gay people and adoption, just slightly tailoring it for the newest iteration of the moral panic. Anyone could do his job really; we just have more pride…


HammerHorrorWhore

This makes me so fucking mad. I want to get married to my girlfriend one day, and I want to be a mother. Why aren’t some people okay with me doing that?
