Seems like a nothing burger blown out of proportion by the press. Stop upvoting garbage pls
It really just demonstrates how cringe republicans are… And it’s important to highlight just how cringe these people are.
I have lots of weird friends (and I’m probably weird myself). I actually prefer to hang with weird people.
But it’s important to highlight just how contradictory the anti-porn conservative party acts. It’s not weird, its just cringe. And its even worse because they’re trying to define what normal is and demanding people follow it

I’d disagree

You can’t tell me what to or not to upvote. Shits funny…upvote.
But it is a funny nothing burger that shows how out of touch Vance is
More like, it shows that media will leech into anything.
