    An evangelical pastor who briefly shot to fame in 2015 for recording a rap song in support of Sen. Ted Cruz is now selling industrial-strength bleach tablets to parents and has admitted that many of his customers are using the product to treat autism in their children.

    And somehow this sentence took a turn for the worse after the phrase “rap song in support of Ted Cruz.”

      to me it was over with “Rapping Preacher”. No one who brands himself like that will be involved in anything remotely intelligent nor good

      In civilised countries they can’t. It would be highly illegal.

        It’s illegal here too. There are two assholes from Florida currently sitting in prison for selling Bleach as a COVID cure.

        Idk, everyone should be allowed to sell bleach enemas for children. In a normal world no one should ve dumb enough to buy it.

          I would support the bleach enemas for self-use, but the poor children of these dumb fucks wouldn’t have a say in what happens to them, so we need to protect them from their parents.

          Uh, there’s elderly, neurodivergent, and those struggling with addiction out there. This isn’t the wild west, you aren’t entitled to whatever you can scam off people, no matter the damages…

      They’ve been doing this for a while now. I remember reading stories about moms in Facebook groups sharing photos of “parasites” they thought they were removing from their children by forcing them to drink bleach…

      Pretty sure it was actually the lining of their esophagus/something similarly bad that should be inside not outside the body.

        I believe you’re talking about them shedding their intestinal linings and thinking they were getting rid of “worms.”

        Very common trick, it’s not just done with autism, but many cleansing products have you puke up something to make it look like it actually is doing its job. But most of the time it is just stomach lining

          Well the author of that book, written in 2008 even said “Donald Trump proved me wrong”

          In 2008, he argued accusation of fascism agianst the GOP were unwarranted because of the very neo liberal and libertarian ideas of the GOP. And to be frank he wasn’t really wrong, his position is defensible. Though Trump, was a serious surprise that he acknowledged

        Please, there’s a major difference:

        In Aktion T4 they knew what they were doing, those fuckers can’t place their neighbors on the map

      I agree totally and I think that people like this are really the best examples of that phrase “there is no hate quite like Christian love.”

    Vaccine gave autism to my kid, pretty sure bleach on the other hand should do the job

      I mean. Technically it will. You will never have any disease or beneficial condition for that matter.

    Have the Save The Children WWG1WGA people ever gone after these bleach freaks? I assume no because it’d probably be friendly fire for their side

      They don’t care about child molesters, they care about who they can accuse of being child molesters.
