Topic	Steven Crowder Accused of Grooming by Employees
action52 07/22/23 9:59:20 PM #45:	https://youtu.be/6wHva3JXPh0 Go to 12:25 for an in-depth explanation of what "grooming" actually means. Be prepared, it is NOT an easy watch, especially if you have been abused as a child. Yes, if you're gonna "well actually," you can manipulate adults and do things that are kinda similar to grooming, but it's nowhere near as scarring or traumatizing as gaining a child's trust so they will be open to sexual acts they are physically not ready for, manipulating them to be afraid to tell other adults or even to think it's their own fault, and leave them horribly psychologically damaged (not to mention physically in many many cases) for the rest of their lives just to make yourself feel good. It disgusts me that the right wing has coopted this to refer to anything referencing queerness that someone under 18 might see (and they're trying to push the age up until no one can see them) or implying that just letting gay/trans kids be themselves is somehow "grooming" them for sex acts. I hate seeing the word be diluted like this. So I'm gonna push back when I see anyone help them dilute its meaning, even when they're doing it to demonize someone like Crowder who absolutely is a horrible bigot AND a serial sexual harasser, bully, abusive to his wife... the list goes on and on. But I don't Ike him being called a "groomer." --- And who are you, my little friend? Not a spoon... not a fork... but something in between. A fpoon. What will you think of next, Germany? <cite>action52 posted [p:975008331] in Steven Cro...
