Lazy reporting. Three comments on X is not a freak out. What happened to journalism? When did it become copying and pasting comments from social media?
The Queer Planet doc
Oh yeah, they will definitely watch with a name like that and will definitely learn from it
LOL, they are really just now learning this?
These are probably some of the same geniuses that believe that repeating that evolution is "just" a theory is making some kind of point.
Just wait until they learn about anemone fish...
Are those the ones that basically convert based on what potential mates they run into?
YOu don't find gay animals in nature!!! Gayness is unnatural and therefore unethical!!!!!
Peacock: "Actually you do, here are some gay animals"
Well... some animals also eat their own young!!!!!! Just because it's natural doesn't mean it's ethical!!!!!!!!!!
Fucking hilarious.
Well the second argument is true, it's just that being gay isn't unethical. But talk to them about veganism and all of a sudden we can eat insane amounts of dead animals cause lions eat other animals too?
Shit headline: conservatives don't learn anything ever
Yeah, the found out some animals can be gay, but they didn't learn anything from that.
Let's now wait until they learn about shrimps and hermaphroditism in animals.
Northern shrimp, also commonly known as northern prawn, are a sequential hermaphrodite. This is a term used for animals that start their life as one sex and change to the other later in life. In the case of northern shrimp, they are born as males and become females at around four or five years of age.
In a group of anemonefish, a strict dominance hierarchy exists. The largest and most aggressive female is found at the top. Anemonefish are protandrous sequential hermaphrodites, meaning they develop into males first, and when they mature, they become females. If the female anemonefish is removed from the group, such as by death, one of the largest and most dominant males becomes a female.
I saw a post the other day half-joking that they were making the next Jurassic Park movie woke by having trans dinosaurs.
Pretty sure somebody wasn't paying attention during the original...
And if they hear this information, they may stare blankly, refuse to take in the new information, then respond with a thought-terminating cliche like "God only made two genders."
Actually like this: https://youtu.be/dF98ii6r_gU?si=auFnMHOAwPi3UWlz
Man I had a cat who would only try to bang my female dog, hated my other cat and dog, just specifically had eyes for that one dog.
We will soon have churches for animals that also can operate without taxes
Imagine having a world view based on such fragile bullshit that two animals fucking can shatter it...
Just see how many of them react to teaching the fundamentals of biology (evolution).
Yeah conservatives are brain damaged.
The trailer for the series is full of comments criticizing Peacock (the publisher) for releasing this documentary and saying they'll delete their Peacock accounts.
I've never heard of them before and I might open an account specifically to watch this! It looks genuinely good from the trailer
If you didn't know Peacock is the same as NBC. It's their online streaming service.
I was told that all these things happen because Eve ate the forbidden fruit and doomed the world to fall into sin. I guess that is why they hate women so much.
Also, I am glad to hear about another interesting documentary. I'm going to add this to my watch list.
I wonder what stories they will cook up of libdems that moved to the remotest corners of the world just to teach animals to be gay...
Conservatives are freaking out because they learned that some animals are gay
Are we seriously doomed to have this stupid ass homophobia shoved down our throats by conservative bigots every 5-10 years because they keep getting mad about the same thing all over again? I've been listening to this shit for over 20 years now.
Given their history, I'm thinking yes. And they have more plans than just poutrages on their alternative reality cinematic universe, they want to force their worldview of xtian Sharia Law on everyone.
Just know that these asshats take extreme pride in their hate. They will subject people to it until the day they die. Christianity is an eternal well of hate and ignorance. And they want to make sure no one is ever happy, the miserable fucks!
There's literally worms in their brains.
I think we’re doomed to have it shoved down our throats way more frequently than that with their recent freak outs.
Also, he mentions 20 years, I have seen it going on much longer than 20 years, sadly. If they seize power via a Ronald McDonald presidency, they will make things far, far worse. I remember things being very hostile toward gays (trans, etc., didn't really get a mention other than for comedy) at the height of the fear over AIDS. I think the boot lifted a bit from their neck during the 70s, a whole lot of people seemed to view the 80s as their comeuppance for daring to be who they are...
And anyone that votes for Republicans, and yet is not a fully white, xtian, far-right cishet male is absolutely kidding themselves. They'll have you up against the wall eventually no matter how much Ronald McDonald regalia you might have purchased.
Being a conservative requires refusing to learn anything
In high school, the conservative kids refused to accept homosexuality occurred in Greek culture. Then when they finally did accept it, said it was why God destroyed their civilization?
"Destroyed" by the famously straight Romans?
How do you think the Romans caught all that gayness?
Greek blood
You conserve your brain by not learning about stuff and things.
5D Go Fish right there.
