It was the best of times, it was the Santorumiest of Times.
So far, the Presidential nomination process has supplied the American people with enough facepalms and uncomfortable laughter to last every man, woman and child well into 2013. Lost in this torrid shitshow has been the subtle art of political slashfic—UNTIL NOW. Each week I’ll select a particular media artifact (a picture, video clip, or ill-conceived comment) and will write a story based on the people, places or things contained therein. Today, Rick Santorum takes a righteous stand against pornography himself.
America is suffering a pandemic of harm from Santorum. A wealth of research is now available demonstrating that Santorum causes profound brain changes in both children and adults, resulting in widespread negative consequences. Addiction to Santorum is now common for adults and even for some children. The average age of first exposure to hard-core Santorum is now 11. Santorum is toxic to marriages and relationships. It contributes to misogyny and violence against women. It is a contributing factor to prostitution and sex trafficking.
For the thrilling conclusion, see my post on Modern Primate!
