Nothing, the star of the story is a moron who has been brainwashed by right wing social media.
"""""Traditional family values""""" you mean, of course.
You mean where having religious folk touch your kids and are ok with it or every 2nd guys phone having grinder “traditional values”?
Is there any other way?

Coital info dumps
The barrista forgets to say your welcome when you thank them for your coffee
Our Liberal government /s
Absolutely nothing comes close to comparison. This guy is an complete tool and I hope he gets forcefully conscripted into the orcs.
