This includes the efforts to dress it up, hide it, and make it about protecting women or children. That's exactly what bigots did to Black and gay people. 531079

Seamus Petrie @seamuspetrie.bsky.social · 27/07/2026I think both Nolans (esp Jonathan) excel at this dense, *functional* level of writing.
