Twitter Outraged Over Drag Show for Babies

This is why I support Gays against Groomers. I have nothing against drag shows, I just don't think drag shows are appropriate for kids.

Setting aside the performers, wtf is wrong with these women??! Why would they go to something like this with their kids?

I know clowns famously suck ass, but aren't they preferable to this? I mean, they're just kiddies. Obviously they can't grasp the sexual connotation of it all and thus aren't exactly traumatised by this, but it's also just completely wasted on them.

It just gets work. Are these people working for the Right?

They're sink us all together, aren't they?

^ *gonna sink us all...

OP and R4, these videos are making me lol. Seeing that little girl that looks like Matilda with a man in a thong daisy dukes crawling up to her - who are the parents and how did this happen? The S&M show at what looks like mommies and me baby day at Gymboree is hilarious as well. A queen in a thong/jock cup doing the splits while babies are crawling around on the floor is something straight out of SNL.

[quote]This is why I support Gays against Groomers

I'm not opposed to drag queen story hours, but whatever's going on at OP's link is highly suspicious.

But "Gays against Groomers"? C'mon. The right isn't going to distinguish between that video and all gay men and women as "groomers".

Whatever happened in OP's video shouldn't have. But if you side with the "anti-groomers", you're next on the chopping block.

Is this all because of Drag Race? 20+ years ago, in my city at least, drag queens were seen as pathetic. No one could ever make a living from it back then.

I seriously wonder what kind of world awaits the babies, presumably born during the COVID era, in OP's video. I am fearful for this next generation.

[quote]I seriously wonder what kind of world awaits the babies, presumably born during the COVID era, in OP's video. I am fearful for this next generation.

My parents grew marijuana in a kiddie pool in our backyard. And regularly had friends over to get stoned when I was like 3. And they were an electrical engineer and a school teacher.

I wasn't scarred for life or ended up a drug addict because of it. Kids are resilient. Those babies won't even remember this happened.

But parents (even good parents like mine) make dumb choices.

R8 we are already on the chopping block dummy, so why wouldn't we at least make our stance on this gross shit heard instead of just silently judging in the background and lamenting how the right and homophobes will hate us regardless of whether we judge this nasty groomer shit or not.

You can make a stance whether or not some political party would hate you regardless if you take that stance or not.

Quisling thread...

The people in the OP video are a group and they’re not going to stop performing it despite the backlash.

Look, I’m against the word groomer being thrown around and all the obvious shit the Right is running with, but I can’t see anyone, even most trans people, being able to look at these videos and saying this is okay. It’s almost like a caricature come to life. It’s beyond insane.

If your priority is worrying about drag looking bad rather than the sexualising of children then you are the problem.

But yet dressing 5 and 6 years olds like prostitutes to compete is good old American fun!

The kids are too young to be scarred by this, but who even wants to go to something like this? What is the appeal? social media points from your other insane white mom friends?

This is so batshit I almost can’t even believe it’s happening and the left is co-signing it. Trying to prove something to the bigots and right wing by bringing your baby to a sex show.

[quote] wtf is wrong with these women??! Why would they go to something like this with their kids?

r2 They're the "proud & vocal YAS progressive/liberal, LGBTQ+ allies & anti-Trump" type, totally drunk on their righteous way of "fighting against Trump or whatever, against *all* bigots/hate/intolerance" = "fighting till death defending and actively participating in all things LGBTQ aka. drag shows for babies, LGBTQ education teaching the existence of 73 genders, and all the nutty things"

This is why they hate us. The Nazis only needed to vilify SOME Jews to get ALL Jews. All LGBT are in danger because the TRANS want 12 year old members to their cause. We are going to lose gay marriage in the Red States next. Wait and see.

I'm more worried about Lauren Boebert grooming her kids to be school shooters.

Who thought this was a good idea? The mothers, OP, duh. Fraus love RuPaul’s Drag Race and they’re probably the show’s largest viewing block in 2023.

R18 - you answered your own question. Social media points from the other fraus is the motivator.

Yeah but THIS is MURICA

It's never been about babies/children not remembering and not getting scarred.

It's always about them being repeatedly exposed to these as "natural and normal" since very young ages, making them very desensitized to other inappropriate things, making some vulnerable preys

[quote]All LGBT are in danger because the TRANS want 12 year old members to their cause.

What bullshit. The scary TRANS aren't the ones taking kids to medical appointments, getting them diagnosed, working with professionals to minimize the effects of dysphoria by treating them. Their straight parents are.

And why would you post an anti-trans screed and then link to the Mayo Clinic's very fair and supportive page on puberty blockers?

R24 like going to a Catholic Church?

R18 So lets show babies porn while we are at it?!?!

Not r24 but yes, trans ideology is very similar religion.

^Similar to

Parents are stupid. Just because some hipsters are doing their freak show at their "performance space" in town doesn't mean you must take your kids to watch. It could be Drag Queens in jockstraps or just about any other kinds of freaks. The freaks are histrionic. They have no boundaries. These parents are likely low IQ who think it's all so cool. I don't worry at ALL about the kids, who are just seeing clowns. But it's all very unseemly between the parents and the soi distant artistes en residence.

I'm sorry but to me it looks like manufactured BS to enrage and solidify the MAGA base. Exactly like how caravans of migrants suddenly seem to gain traction the days before an election. Are we sure this is real?

Its often hard to find the dates and locations of these events that are paraded online to outrage.

Scarred for life!

But I also wonder whether this is legit.

Oh ffs, who gives a shit. Fucking rightwing outrage virtue signaling. They have so little to complain about right now they ramp up the screeching to any/every non-traditional book, class, entertainment, etc. How fucking boring they are.

[bold]But wait??? I thought we were supposed to RESPECT PARENT'S CHOICES, right?[/bold] Keep the gov't out of parental choices? These parents CHOSE to take toddlers to this non-sexual event. Why is that bad to rightwingers?

And ps, it wasn't FOR the babies. It was for the parents who have to schlep their crotchfruit everywhere. This way they get to mingle and have a show without arranging for a sitter. the toddlers have no idea and no process to remember this nonthingburger of "entertainment."

[quote]The kids are too young to be scarred by this

The r4 video is a girl that isn’t too young.

This is why I’m pro-choice. Some people just shouldn’t be parents.

It’s similar to a religious cult. Totally irrational but you can’t argue its supporters out of it.

Oh, the usual "it doesn't happen" "legit?" "unable to verify it did happen" "cannot find dates and locations"...

Whenever I come across things like this, I always see the sources there, usually screenshots/vids from such orgs/venues/their social media, proudly showing off themselves.

[quote] CabaBabaRave – The Baby Cabaret Rave Experience cabababarave.com / facebook.com/cabababarave / instagram.com/cabababarave

As expected, they locked all their social media and official website, where they were proudly uploading these. IG profile pic is the same one OP posted.

It didn’t happen.

Ok, it happened but it’s not what you think it is!

Ok, it happened and it’s what you think it is but it’s liberating and good it happened!

Who is this Twitter person who seems to be in a constant state of outrage?

The PARENTS made the choice to attend these shows with their children. These shows wouldn't exist if parents chose not go see them. Stop blaming the performers. If anything, call Child Protective Services on the parents, and leave the performers out of it.

R42, we established that. However, this performers also have a screw loose.

I'm R31. I'll go a bit further. If such spectacles do happen, then the organizers of such shows are objective allies of or useful idiots to the MAGA cause so time maybe for the Dems to legislate so that drag queens shows become 18+ shows. That'll have some interesting consequences:

- MAGA heads will spin so fast that Dems actually do this that I don't think they'll have enough time to recover before the 2024 election cycle. Imagine D-governors making theirs deSantis' motto that "my state is where woke goes to die". If Dems start to do that, what niche market is left to poor Ron DeSantis?

- the level of cognitive dissonance in those MAGA heads will have them question their whole life and their purpose on Earth and whether up is really down and left is right and alternative facts are facts: "they know what Is what but they don't know what Is what: they just strut".

- As soon as children are able to use a search engine, they'll try to find videos of such shows: Call it the Streisand effect if you like, but if you tell confrontational teens that something is a big no-no, you're bound to see them looking for themselves what it's all about. Oh well, at least teenagers are not babies.

[Quote][R42], we established that. However, this performers also have a screw loose.

R43 Then the parents are choosing to see the performer with a loose screw.

R44 You know the event (OP post) happened in *London*

but conveniently chose to ignore that fact to go on the usual word vomit of "MA(merica)GA, Dems, Repubs, DeSantis, manufactured, not real, (UK event) to enrage and solidify the MAGA base"

The worst thing that could happen to a child at a drag event is that a "Christian" shows up with a gun.

If this thread gets deleted, it will be the proverbial final straw for me and I will fully believe the moderators are complicit with this very harmful behavior to both kids and the gay community as a whole.

Because god forbid someone find this thread on a Google search and see a bunch of gays condemning it. No. We have to been seen as the ones supporting and pushing this bullshit.

Threads get deleted because trolls FF them and their OPS.

"This is why they hate us. The Nazis only needed to vilify SOME Jews to get ALL Jews. All LGBT are in danger because the TRANS want 12 year old members to their cause. We are going to lose gay marriage in the Red States next. Wait and see."

Speaking of Nazis, Miss "Drop the T"...blaming the victim seems to be your cri de coeur.

Straight people love the idea that their hatred is our fault.

Because, you know, we control with our special fairy powers.

That's what you sound like.

Incorrect, r49. Read the text in the red-tagged OP of this thread.

Lmao, at that R4 video! Jesus Christ WHAT is wrong with the parents? They're clapping like that ridiculous person cured cancer. I wonder what the little girl is thinking, lol?

[quote] and their OPS

OPS?

Why didn't they just give the little girl a lap dance? The parents are fucking delusional. Why would you take your young kid to see this? Hell, I just don't get it.

[quote]The Nazis only needed to vilify SOME Jews to get ALL Jews. All LGBT are in danger because the TRANS want 12 year old members to their cause.

"The Nazis only needed to vilify SOME Jews to get ALL Jews, which is why I'm vilifying SOME trans by pretending these perversions are the fault of ALL trans."

I really, really worry for a lot of Dataloungers, because I know they aren't picking up on what the trolls are doing here. This guy just told you straight up that he is behaving exactly like the Nazis did, and he wants you to join him, and some of you will.

Nobody complained about Mrs. Doubtfire taking care of the kiddies.

If anyone has any idea of the source of this video, post it.

It comes from Dominique Samuels, who is a rightwing Daily Mail pundit whose Twitter is an enormous garbage fire of homophobia. She has not revealed where the video came from, other than some TikTok that got it from somewhere else.

Don't compare them to clowns. Clowns are never sexually provocative. These kids are going to grow up with no sexual boundaries and it could manifest in all kinds of ugly ways. I guess that's the point.

I should have added at r57 that I've searched for this supposed "Caba Baba Rave" company and I'm finding almost nothing out there.

There's a tweet allegedly showing the owners and they're two straight ladies. The statement allegedly from them is saying they're providing more adult entertainment for moms who can bring along their babies, because it's not like babies are even going to know what's going on, and they have less spicy entertainment for moms with kids ages 1 and older.

I think this is just some bored straight moms providing shows for other bored straight moms? And I guess I'm supposed to insist that we murder all trans because of it, or something? I don't think trans are even involved.

[quote] If anyone has any idea of the source of this video, post it.

The source is clearly marked in OP's video.

Their own instagram.com/cabababarave (conveniently set to private now) posted it on their IG story, category "Sneak Peeks"

[quote] I should have added at [R57] that I've searched for this supposed "Caba Baba Rave" company and I'm finding almost nothing out there.

Read the fucking thread.

[quote] She has not revealed where the video came from,

She has already posted MULTIPLE times that it's from Cabababarave

Is this one of the places Stefon recommends?

This is why some of them, they are freaks and crazy 🤪

Start 'em off young!!

Hey, the parents brought the kids there. They didn't drive there themselves.

We need to recreate a culture in which children are protected. This means sexual and gender identity stuff only at the appropriate age, in schools, in entertainment venues, and in locker rooms etc. if this means restrictions on where parent can take their kids, or preventing female identified people with penises, or closely monitoring what elementary school teachers can say and teach then so be it.

preventing from entering locker rooms…^

I really am starting to think right wing nutjobs are quietly paying heavily these 'drag queens' to set up controversial stuff like this.

Martin Daubney who was quoted in OP was a former Brexit Party MEP who is a professional right-wing whinger. He is rumoured to have a HUGE collection of Nazi memorabilia. No way would some random DL reader bother even going near his Twitter. This whole thread and most of the sockpuppet replies are another alt-right infestation of DL.

This is for social media and the outrage machine, respectively. Yes, hausfrau fangirls of Drag Race are largely driving the "drag shows for everything" trend. It's largely harmless for the kids, who aren't old enough to care or (in most cases) remember. At most, a one-off day at a drag show for kids might get a retrospective, "huh, that was weird" with their psychoanalyst in twenty years. The outfit choices in some of these links are questionable for that audience age, and the mom's are hollering like it's sorority night at the strip club. But, to R11's point, parents have been making poor decisions around their kids forever. The kids will be fine. That said, a drag queen performance company casting itself as a group of freedom fighters on social media because a grown man wore a harness in front of a group of lonely housewives and their barely-aware offspring is absurd. But so is most social media.

[quote] their psychoanalyst in twenty years

[quote]Are these people working for the Right?

Is it really that hard to accept that one's own side is to blame and not the other? I don't understand that level of partisanship.

There's absolutely no way the American Democratic Party is to blame for a couple of bored UK housewives starting a business where women can gawk at an adult cabaret while their babies are with them, r72.

r73, drink some coffee and reread the reply. There's no mention of party.

This has frau written all over it. They can relive their club days and get street cred. Meanwhile they wouldn’t talk to you out on the street.

r75 and don't forget those reactions ready to march into becoming far right and join groups like gays against groomers that only focuses on perceived crimes against lgbt - they lead with shit like this but then speak out against against wedding bands corrupting kids and won't call out any other group (i.e. rightwing christians) with alleged crimes saying it's not their business,,, unsurprisingly, the flagship org has ties with 'uk' rad fem org wdi and american religious right focus on the family and numerous figures of the far right.

several of the gag's accts praises Florida's gov for fighting against wokeness

a couple are boosting Uganda a viral tweet from end wokeness account involving Uganda.. where now they're calling for reviving the death penalty for gay men.

apparently gays against groomers supports this:

R71- Well, now that Zee RSA has tweeted about it, I've completely changed my mind...

But, then again, he also did this.

Drag shows are terrible! Sign your 6 year old kids up to dance on stage in a bikini for a trophy!

Has Lea or her penis commented yet?

R69 Shoot the messenger and ignore the message.

The anti-trans trolls have woken up from their stupor and are spamming and bumping old threads, like r82 just did.

At this point I think the best thing would be for normal people to leave Datalounge to the trolls and let the assholes at Mediapolis try to continue to get business with other corporations, knowing that Datalounge is nothing but "blacks are apes, trans should be exterminated, Italians are spics who aren't even white, women have ruined the lives of all men, and we need another Holocaust." We get all that already, maybe they should see what happens when that's ALL they get.

R84 is classic tra, exaggerate (you want to holocaust TRANS!!!), lie about everything everyone says and cal everyone right wing. We see your tactics you fucking loser.

I've been to R-rated movies where there was more nudity and absolutely disgusting violence and people brought their crying infants, toddlers and young children.

Ban that first and then let's deal with this.

R84 = For YOUR information----- I posted R82----I have NOT BUMPED any old threads. So keep my name out of your mouth or at least stop LYING about things I never did...I was being a smartass about Lia (and yes it wasn't the funniest) but Lia ONLY became "trans" when he decided to steal FEMALE SWIMMERS MEDALS. Lia wants to be trans "hero" but when stories about trans comes up she sure doesn't lift a finger.....So YOU tell me---where is LIA with the penis????....Stop calling EVERY poster YOU disagree with a troll, a republican, or a MAGA...You don't own this site.

Maybe a time out will help R84 with some introspection. FF R84

[quote] I've been to R-rated movies where there was more nudity and absolutely disgusting violence

Did you see them when you were eight years old?

Ah yes, we're concerned about "the children" are we?

R84 let me help you express yourself precisely. You see, asshats called Italian-Americans other words - I won't type them, but you can google. "Spics" was for hispanics. Do you get it? reduced to "spanics" then reduced to "spics".

If you are going to get your panties in bunch and expend so much energy, you might as well try to seem serious, and hide your low level of general education and poor rhetoric. That way you'll be more persuasive in debate. Did you skip debate course in HS, dear? B.O.C.E.S? (trade school)

[quote]Who is this Twitter person who seems to be in a constant state of outrage?

Just the one, dear?
