    Look up “statistics drag queens crimes against minors” on Google.

    Now do the same for “statistics priests crimes against minors”.

    Notice anything interesting?

    If a certain narrative is relying only on isolated stories and journalistic reports, and the other has statistical studies to back up its claims, I’d trust the latter to have a closer grip on reality.

        This weird whataboutism that religious apologists engage in speaks really bad about you, but I’ll bite.

        Any institution that gives adults authority over children and creates room for abuse should be scrutinized and have tight checks and controls. Fortunately, many educators across the West are taking action by teaching children about consent so that they’re capable of protecting their rights and calling out abuse against themselves as early as possible. Unfortunately, I’ve seen plenty of Conservatives lashing out against this and religious schools have a worrying tendency to resist incorporating comprehensive education about consent into their curriculum.

        Anti-Muslim =/= Anti-Islam. If you instinctively react to criticism of Islam in a way that you don’t react to criticism of Christianity, you likely have a bias that you may want to check out. Broad criticisms against Muslims and/or Arabs is hate speech, and in certain cases, racism; criticizing Islam is as necessary for any society that wants to get rid of moral dogma as it is criticizing any other major religion.

    Both groups had been involved with exploiting children. Percentage comprision of crime/population reflects both in bad lights.

    I don’t think this meme does what OP think it does

      Speak for yourself. I would rather leave my 7 years old with any drag queen artist rather than a priest alone in a church. Hell it’s not even close. Just thinking about that makes my skin crawl

        Statistically your kids will be safe with both.

        Liberal night feel safer with drag and conservative might feel safer with a priest.

        No of children abused by priests are shamefully large. But no of priest are too. So even if there are few cases of child molestation by drag cases, if you’ll calculate on percentage itll look comparable. Both the scenarios will not yield more than 1 percent ( i am taking about higher side)

        That’s why I don’t think that this meme is doing what OP think it does
