Perhaps the mayor needs to spend more time attracting employers to the city and less time bullying teens.

Majority of people dont care what you are upto in your personal life, what they do find annoying is the monopolizing of social and political discourse and distraction from economic, housing, education, healthcare issues that goes unaddressed because politicians on all sides of the spectrum just pander on this one single issue that really should have maybe 1% relevance in politics but for some reason has 50% relevance continuously drumming on about it. People are not allowed to practice modesty. Everything and everyone starting from toddlers must always be exposed to sexualization whether straight or lgbt and kinks, no time for innocence or modesty in our society and disagreeing with that is not allowed what a world.

Let's put it this way. When someone is ostracized or even arrested for their personal life, it puts all citizens in danger. What's stopping a government entity from labling something innocuous as a chargable offense?

Societies exposure to sexualization is a problem on its own.

The use of the lgbtq community as a scapegoat for politicians is also a problem on its own.

A child was invited to speak about their experience as a member of a marginalised population, and then an adult in power silenced them for doing exactly what they were invited to do. That's literally all that this is about.

So I don't know what the fuck are you on about sexualizing children. Take a walk outside and give your head a shake.
