Why would adult men want to dress up as animals and hang out in an area where there are a lot of young kids? πŸ€” I’m old enough to remember the Mr Bubbles case that happened in Sydney in the 1980’s when i lived there. I suppose it’s only fair to let paedophiles express themselves, we are all for diversity and inclusion! To exclude them is paedophobic!

Jesus. This has given me the chills. Raging at how clueless so many parents are!

I’m always highly suspicious about adults who use things that children find attractive (bright colours, cartoon characters) to lure them into their own ideology - grooming is exactly what it is.

There’s a very well followed Twitter account dedicated to The Muppets that I used to enjoy, as an adult who likes a bit of nostalgia. Just recently, the guy who runs it has started tweeting more about his own life/beliefs and all sorts of bizarre, sexualised interpretations of these characters, which are FOR CHILDREN, eg:

- The Fraggles are asexual/nonbinary (clip of one scene where a character is referred to as β€œthey”).

- A puppet cow who has a posh/camp voice is secret code for drag queens.

- How he and his wife are both bi and queer and how all their other genderqueer pals are their β€œtribe”.

- Photos of him and said wife getting married in their kiddie cartoon clobber/visiting Disneyland etc. I hardly need to add that they don’t have any children themselves.

I’ve unfollowed it because it is setting off all my alarm bells. Furries have exactly the same effect on me, and particularly in the context shown here.

That's fucking grim. It reminds me of the story published on this substack of the social worker (iirc) who recounted how a paedophile explained to him that dressing up as a furry was the best way of accessing children. He said not only did parents drop their defences, they would literally hand their kids over to you and sometimes leave you alone with them. It's glaringly-obvious why furries feature so heavily in the gender ideology cult.

Time was, when paedophiles would turn up with cute furry puppies to attract the kids. Now they're turning up AS cute furry puppies.

Attempting imagining oneself as a gran or parent there and maybe only vaguely aware of these current depravities, maybe you’d think that these characters were from the local council’s β€œplay team”? β€˜Wonder if anyone asked them why they were there, particularly FILMING their children? Did any parents maybe post on local SM groups? Imagine four male adults, or indeed any group of adults without costumes arriving at a children’s playground, standing around watching the children and FILMING with a professional type camera?! Original sharer quite rightly left, maybe someone did ask them…

I despair, some people should not be parents. These fellas are sexually aroused in those suits and the parents are too gormless to realise.

Sinister. They’re really after our kids aren’t they?

I consider there to be only one conclusion that can be drawn.

The male predators are coming out in droves. Keep your children close.

I came across this statement not long ago which speaks to how parents, and mothers in particular, are failing to even see these threats:

"Mothers fail to protect their children because society fails to protect mothers."

Over 40 years ago my first red flag of many as a mother, that warned me of how society really feels about mothers, was when I was a new mother who called in sick. I had to take the day off because both my baby and me were very sick with respiratory illness. I happened to mention that my baby was coughing up blood as well. When I returned the next day, still not well, having found someone to take care of my baby, I was called into the office and given a warning that sick days were only to be used for myself, not my baby. EVEN THOUGH I WAS CLEARLY STILL SICK, I was docked a day's pay and sent off with a warning on my employee file. This was when both my husband and I were both working for salaries barely above minimum wage at the time.

This culture hates parents, but in particular it hates mothers who fail to care for and protect their children against predators despite the fact that they're doing their best in the face of overwhelming challenges. Women's natural inclination to be kind and accommodating has been weaponized against them allowing male predators to make massive inroads into their lives everywhere you look.

I despair for all women, but in particular, I despair for the children who suffer because they will be victimized by these monsters and grow up never feeling safe with anyone again, but especially men. I know. Because I'm one of them. It almost destroyed my family, my relationship with my mother and affected every woman in my circle of family and friends. All of us have been targeted by male predators from my grandmothers, aunts, mother, sisters. I've been trying desperately to protect my own children, but at 65 years old my children no longer listen to me or believe me. Older women and mothers have become relegated to the dust bin in our culture.

Thank you for all that you do, Graham. It means more than you can ever know. Somehow men's opinions matter so much more than women's.
