A Republican aide has claimed that LGBTQ+ organisations are training eight-year-old children how to use butt plugs and dildos.

In a recently resurfaced speech, Erin Mazzoni, who reportedly works for the campaign of Franklin, Tennessee Republican mayoral candidate Gabrielle Hanson, alleged that children are being given sex toys by LGBTQ+ activists.

Mazzoni told a meeting of the Franklin Board of Mayor and Aldermen earlier this that she’d moved to Tennessee from Bucks County, in Pennsylvania, after apparently discovering that an LGBTQ+ organisation was teaching children how to use sex toys, which, she claimed, caused the community to “fall apart”.

Between sobs, she said: “It started out as Pride coming in, and I thought everything would be OK. It ended with a Rainbow Room where eight to 12-year-old kids were given butt plugs and dildos and trained.

Damn that's the fakest crying shit I've heard in a long time

And then the board and all in attendance burst into mocking laughter that she would never forget for the rest of her life. Right?

If she's training her children with butt plugs and dildos everything is alright. But LGBTQ+ activists!? That's a step too far!

'Oh she would never, a healthy understanding of sex between people who love each other, is against their religion... you are not allowed to enjoy sex ever, and especially if you are a woman... and how dare you as a woman have sex with your husband and not get pregnant...'

People need to do outbursts when people say insane bullshit like this-- along the lines of "WHAT?! ARE YOU FUCKING HIGH LADY??"

And someone to stand behind them with a posterboard that says [citation needed]

so yeah none of us believe her...but I cant understand the people that supposedly do. If I heard allegations of some organization doing all this child sexual assault...Im immediately calling the cops or making sure the alleger has, finding out specifics of organization and people's names involved. Why is it not immediately being treated like a criminal allegation, and instead being used in a political speech?

[-] IronCorgi@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago

Because everyone knows she is full of shit, some people just pretend to believe her because it allows them to do what they want: Attack queer people and act like it was justified.

[-] evatronic@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

Remembering that every accusation is a confession from a Republican, has anyone checked on any kids she has contact with?

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Well I heard LGBTQ+ people bought children ice cream, and then, out of the blue, they added rainbow sprinkles on them!

And when the children ate them, they were taken away on magical unicorn up in the clouds, And then they came down and had bread, cheese and salads. And. Um.

Anyway, it's a scandal!

Annie, are you sure that's what happened?

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

That was quite possibly the worst acting I've ever seen.

And I've watched Plan 9 from Outer Space in its entirety

claimed with zero evidence and a lot of crocodile tears that...

Can we stop with the satanic panic? Of course we can't, we want our good Christian rules implement and of we have to lie, steal and cheat for that, we totally will, just like Jesus would
