Bout a week ago I started a conversation about MTGreen

and used a head cheer leader comparison in an attempt to have others here relate to my feelings on her. I received more than a few surprising comments in defense of "Head Cheer Leaders" To my chagrin I received quite a bit of backlash. Accusations of misogyny and other slanderous attacks🤣.
So in an attempt to possible redemption what are the opinions of those I so offended about "Home Coming Queens"? Just wondering?😁

Warning, the video was much funnier before school shootings became a routine event.

and not commenting until you get the idea. This sounds like you want to anger us but play it off as an innocent question.

I understand: his drollery is really trollery.
And I checked: 4 posts hidden in the last 90 days.

I pretty much knew that but was navigating a couple of dogs who have been disagreeable and could not say all that I needed to.

This sounds like all the crap we have done over and over but since I had seen this poster around I was hoping it was just a poorly worded comment that needed correction but I had to go.

I was looking for people to give hearts to, I am glad I passed this one over. I am almost immune to this at this point after our big, successful push in Kansas that is now being whittled away as if we never existed.

Time to wake back up.

Please tell me specifically what was said there.

What did you say?
What was the slander (false and damaging statement)?
