Drag is in no way a fetish. People do drag for a ton of reasons. Could someone do drag as a fetish? Sure. But it's in no way inherent to what drag is and certainly isn't happening 99% of the time. If you read a book, watched an episode of Drag Race, watched "Paris is Burning," or just talked to a drag queen, you'd know that. But instead you'd prefer to call them all pedophiles, which is horrifying and hateful. A drag queen making sexually lewd jokes at an adult show does not mean they're a pedophile or trying to evoke anything other than a laugh. And not all drag queens make sexually lewd jokes.

You don't know what you're talking about, and I don't think you're interested in learning. You can't come to a conversation in good faith by calling an entire group of people pedophiles. Educate yourself or mind your own business. And if you're actually interested in protecting kids, go talk to a CPS worker about the reality of what child abuse actually is in this state.

There is no official language in the US. I would be shocked if most of the states who have one aren't Red states. For people who love murica and the constitution so much, they're generally happy to get rid of our traditions and rights as long as it serves their bigotry.

The US not having an official language is symbolic of our "melting pot" status.

Equal rights means that when you create laws and policy you strip away all the differences such as race, gender, sexual preferences, etc.

The cult of intersectionality does the complete opposite.
