Not sure what's going on right now over in Conservative World, but it's a hell of a wild U-turn for them to suddenly switch from "Oh no! the left is sexualizing our children!" to "Oh no! the left is asexualizing our children!"

Not gonna comment on the post but I hate this logic I'm sorry. Bigots don't have a logical inner reasoning for their bigotry.

Asexuality is not Acceptable Queerness Lite™️ and it's super weird that a bunch of people on this webbed site seem to think it is. It's not a logical inconsistency for conservatives to oppress us. Conservatives don't like asexuality because asexuality is not anything like celibacy or "waiting until marriage" or sex negativity or whatever else you've convinced yourself it is. Conservatives don't like asexuality because deviance is deviance is deviance and it's all worthy of brutal violence in their eyes.

Hope this helps.
