Very Moral Pundit Matt Walsh Pretty Sure Teen Girls Just Made For Banging




https://www.wonkette.com/matt-walsh-teen-pregnancy

In one of the best episodes of "The X-Files," Fox Mulder argues that the mysterious "men in black" deliberately "behave strangely so that if anyone tries to describe an encounter with them, they come off sounding like a lunatic." The over-the-top antics were a successful strategy for obfuscating their sinister agenda.

I wonder if the same isn't true of many obvious rightwing trolls. It's easy to dismiss someone like Matt Walsh who rants about mermaid race science. He's so extreme, liberals will insist he's just an attention-grabbing "shock jock," a wannabe Howard Stern. But what if he actually means everything he says? He's not repulsive for ratings or a big payday. He's just genuinely repulsive, and unfortunately, there's an audience for his garbage.

Media Matters published an extensive deep dive into Walsh's "sordid history as a radio host" on the The Matt and Crank Program in 2010 and 2011. Walsh was in his mid-20s at the time, and his views haven't matured. They are creepily consistent with white Christian nationalism that reeks from the stench of jackboots.

Walsh promoted political violence, dismissing Tea Party protesters as unwilling to "go to extremes" (and not in the peaceful Billy Joel manner). He claimed “we probably lost our republic after Reconstruction,” because that is what a racist says. He's not being "provocative." He's being racist.

The man looks like he'd be on a sex offender website. Mind you in the minds of these troglodytes.

Being trans = bad, immoral and a pedophile

Getting a underage girl pregnant = (Enter religious excuse here)

Up until recently, this type of behavior and talk was just used for class divide and inflaming racial bias.

And this guy is not on a CPS watch list or state registry?
