If you grew up without anything influencing you, you're either an inanimate object or a cat (those bastards don't give a fuck)

Good luck not being influenced by your surroundings. If you feel you haven't, you're blind

Ooooo totally because I (straight) was totally influenced by my gay uncle and other gay stuff I’ve seen online 🙄

While we’re at it we should get rid of cartoons because kids shouldn’t see stuff like someone slowly falling with an umbrella and trying it in real life since they’re influenced.

Just because someone is exposed to something at a young age doesn’t mean they’ll end up making decisions.

I've always thought that about religious youth programs. How is that not indoctrination of the youth?

So all straight and cis content should be banned too, right, or is it only "degenerate" (to use the word the nazis used) content that should be influencing them?

(straight cis white man speaking. I don't have a horse in this race, but I'm sure not going to let people act like they have the moral high ground without them investigating their beliefs themselves.)

Yall said the same thing about some of us being gay. Turns out when used all of the same talking points back then, we were still gay. I was influenced to not be gay, because gay people are disgusting pedophiles who worship Satan, and I ended up gay despite not being a pedophile or worshiping Satan.

First of all, kids will question their gender and sexuality whether you like it or not - internet or no internet. Secondly, the Internet is a safe haven for lgbtq+ kids and taking away those supportive communities is going to be nothing but harmful. What evidence do you have that exposure to lgbtq+ communities "corrupts" children? I'm guessing none because it just doesn't. Be better.

So true bestie
