Dude advocated for beating children to stop them from being LGBTQ...

In a just society he would have spent most of his life behind bars

My parents had all this guys books, videos, and shit. Forgot about it until I read the title. Once I grew up I use to tell myself they grew up in a different time and compartmentalized the hateful shit they believe from how I thought about them. It didn't ever really come up in conversation unless I made the mistake of engaging in a political conversation.

When my mom defended Elons Nazi salute I realized I was wrong. Hard to cut ties with the person that raised you. Even if they are a hateful American Nazi. Dad died before I was able to lose respect for him. But likely would have too.

I wish hell was real. But even then, that's likely too good for this shit stain.

On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
