Rep. Ken Buck Calls for Investigation into 'Exploitation of Children' in Letter to DOJ

[John T. Ford]

Beauty pageants are not the subject of the thread, this one is about Netflix's overt peddling of smut that sexually objectifies little girls (and there is no two ways about the intended purpose behind that movie--it was unequivocally intended as sexual objectification of those adolescent girls). Speaking as a father of a young girl, I find that movie and the people behind its production to be downright disgusting.

Ask yourself what the motive would be for these Leftist to derail this thread.

Kind of all revealing, isn't it?

 

[John T. Ford]

Please, can even one of the people detracting from the subject of the OP watch this trailer and articulate a single defense of the scenes in this film showing 11 year-old girls wearing booty shorts and twerking? Come on, it's only 1:30 long, just watch it before sidelining the thread with endless whataboutisms in defense of Netflix.

This is absolutely obscene

These Leftist absolutely support the normalization of pedophilia.

 

[John T. Ford]

Apparently you are afraid of a little context. We have to look at what is occurring in society as a whole in order to talk about this movie, which I haven't seen and don't plan to.

You are the one who is afraid of context here as evidence by your refusal to discuss the topic of this thread.

 

[John T. Ford]

I suspect that none of these whiners have watched the film. That is usually the case with these dickheads.

It is telling that they dont want to discuss the issue in any context other than a film that they havent seen. A perfect metaphor for fake right wing outrage.

Hypocrisy on a biblical scale.

Did you watch it.

Are you supporting this softcore kiddie porn?

Is that what you are saying?

C'mon Man ....

Clarify this for all of us.

 

[Lysistrata]

We live in a society that allows "beauty" pageants for little girls, scantily-clad girls as "cheerleaders" at high school football games doing "gymnastics," and "churches" parading little girls in white "virgin" dresses to receive "purity rings" at an age when they don't know a damned thing about sex, "conservative" state lawmakers who openly refuse to raise the age of consent in their states because of some bizarre, unexplained thing about "family," and some "religious" men recommending that adult men get themselves some teenage female ass, on TV no less. Some people accept grown men trolling teenage girls. Alabama even has a pet pedophile in roy moore.

I didn't see "conservatives" complaining about all of this before. But OH! Wait! There's a MOVIE!

Either we take the subject of sexualization of girls seriously or we don't.

Was Roy Moore ever convicted or even charged with anything related to underage girls?

That's right ..... he was not.

He was only accused by Leftist with political motives.

That comment alone shows just how disingenuous you are and that you are not to be taken seriously.

But, before dismissing you for being the disingenuous uninformed IDIOT that you are let me ask you this ....

All of that other delusional bullshit you mentioned above .... the beauty" pageants for little girls, scantily-clad girls as "cheerleaders" at high school football games doing "gymnastics," and "churches" parading little girls in white "virgin" ....

Did any of that delusional shit get the attention of anyone?

Did lawmakers in Congress call on the DOJ to Investigate any of that psycho shit for any reason at all?

Your comment is just another clear example of how you Leftist clearly DO NOT live in reality.

When has a right-wing politician in Alabama ever been charged with anything? Show that the girls, now women, who came forward to talk about moore's behavior toward them are "leftists" (whatever that means) with political motives. I don't think that you know even one of moore's accusers. I take it that you deny that girls are subjected to "beauty" pageants, brought up to think that showing off their bodies as "cheerleaders" is a good thing, and that "purity rings," not given to boys, represent how they should handle their sexuality, when they are in fact an early manipulation of sexuality that is intended as a display of the morally reprehensible double standard intended to teach girls to feel negatively about their own selves.

When I was a little kid, years before I knew anything about sex, they dressed me up in a white dress and even a white veil on my head like a woman getting married to go receive my first Christian communion. This is highly manipulative. Why dress up little girls like adult women doing adult things? We sexualize little girls much too much.

More psycho delusional bullshit.

You people truly do not Live in Reality.

Exactly what did I say that is psychotic, delusional, or unrealistic? Do you deny that these things take place in American society? They delight the "conservatives," but they all involve the sexualization of young girls.

Your comment is to distract from the topic of this thread.

It is obvious to ALL what you are doing.

It is also obvious why.

We know who you people are.

Your comments confirm this.

 

[John T. Ford]

No normal thinking person would oppose lawmakers calling for the investigation of Netflix for peddling child porn.

Yet the Leftist on this forum ..... time and time again ... express their discontent for this.

There is no question that ALL of them .... openly or from the closet, knowingly or not .... support the normalization of pedophilia.

They can no longer hide behind the shield of being a Useful Idiot.

Ignorance .... is no longer an acceptable excuse.

I havent seen it you little gobshite. Neither have you.

 

[The Irish Ram]

That is just dumb, to imply child porn is part of any mainstream political movement.

So you missed the part about California wanting to have sex with minors?

Nope. But that is a bit misrepresented.

A bit misrepresented? Are you kidding? And Kilauea is a bit warm...

Tell me why this one movie is being singled out when the sexualization of kids is all over American society. It seems like these politicians are sending out these letters as a political ploy. Apparently Netflix did something to piss off right-wingers. You write of someone trying to "normalize pedophilia," but I don't see anyone actually doing this except for the situations that I mentioned in my previous posts. Moreover, posters are writing about this as if it is an American film, but it is from France, so this hew and cry for an "investigation" under our laws is largely moot.

I think that this Ken Buck and his cronies are using their offices to try and advance a political agenda, possibly because the Obamas now have a contractual relationship with Netflix. It's not that they care about kids. I haven't seen the film so I can't speak to whether or not it involves kiddie porn or actually is a protest of the sexual exploitation of children.

I notice that you right-wingers always want to limit discussion to a very specific narrow issue and eschew discussing context. Context if very important.

So...you are STILL going on about leftists and derailment. That begs the question. What is your motive for this thread? I thought it was the sexualization of young girls such as you say is in Cuties.

You know what I wonder? What kind of person COUNTS "crotch shots" of kids in a movie.

Because of it's sexual content.

There is no way you don't understand this.

There is a reason you are defending this.

And you want me to take the likes of Ted Cruz as a moral guide ? What does Jerry Falwell say about it ?

I'm not "defending" anything. I'm just saying that I believe that this whole brouhaha over one foreign movie is politically motivated and not a serious attempt to stop the sexualization of children wherever this problem surfaces, regardless of circumstances.

I found this article, which seems to be an intelligent discussion of what is going on with this "controversy."

How Cuties, a French movie on Netflix, became part of America’s culture war

Unfortunately, the right-wingers in this country try to generate hysteria by taking a snippet of something and stripping it of context. This is a bad reputation to have.

The request of Buck and Briggs for the DOJ to conduct an "investigation to ensure the film and its production uphold federal laws protecting children from exploitation" raises a question of whether either of them were even aware when they published this letter that the film was produced outside of the United States. It would be interesting to find out whether either or both actually had seen the film.

There are plenty of news stories out there for one to make an informed opinion about this Netflix show.

You simply are choosing not to.

I find that position disturbing.

You are defending this.

And, multiple lawmakers disagree with your position on this show.
