Discussion: Advertisers Rush To Drop Duggars After Molestation Allegations Surface

Discussion for article #236779

That a show like this even exists is enough to make me puke.
Celebrating what – uncontrolled fertility in a dangerously overpopulated world?

The only value this show has is promoting a world view that the Taliban would feel comfortable with, that women are only made by God to serve their husbands and make babies.

And what kind of quality parenting can you give with the mere logistics of having so many kids to consider? How much of the abuse happened because the parents were too distracted and overwhelmed to notice? We had two relatively close together, and you can’t help but give a bit more attention to the second when it comes around. The Duggars are socially and personally irresponsible freaks being used to sell soap and cars.
Of course, we didn’t have God’s firm and unerring hand to guide us past any potential problems…

I sincerely believe that this is the encouraged white evangelical response to looking into the future face of America and recognizing that it’s not going to be lily-white. Obama as President made that reality impossible to ignore, and at every turn, their victimhood underscores their fear that they’re losing their grip on power. I do recall hearing it said among these circles that white “Christian” people need to have more children to counteract the population increase of people of color.

Oh great. The Duggars will go broke and become a drain on the welfare system. Right wingers are always complaining about “other people” who are getting a “free ride,” but now American taxpayers will be supporting these irresponsible redneck yahoos with tax dollars. There is a logic here that is escaping me.

What the hell is up with the so called Learning Channel?

TLC seems to major is spreading ignorance and bigotry these days…not exactly a station for real learning.

Same thing with the Arts and Entertainment Channel. No arts, no entertainment

She’s like a queen termite.

I’ve never seen nor would I watch this show, but I do remember seeing a commercial or promo for it and it stressed that the older kids helped take care of the younger children because volume. Kind of makes me wonder if maybe this unsupervised behaviour helped lead to Josh’s diddling.

*** Duggars, take note: Matthew 6:24 No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.***

It looks like they might be hospital visitor stickers. Look at Michelle’s arm – I think that this shot was taken during a hospital visit.

Genau!

Unless they’ve had quite shockingly bad money management advice over the last ten years, they’re not going broke because the gravy train grinds to a halt. Remember the older are, like Josh until this week, employed adults now.

So the only thing we’re in danger of is being spared these exhibitionists on our tvs.

Obviously it’s difficult to recruit people into their freakshow, so they have to make more in order to promote their insane religious beliefs.

Let’s do the math: If 19 kids each have 19 of their own they have 361 grandkids. If each of them have 19 kids there are 6859 great grandkids. So in 2 generations you have created 7000 of these homeschooled idiots who live in a bubble. It’s nuts.

It’s a trainwreck, so people watch it.

perhaps it was meant to portray the downside to home Skuling. Ejumakashun is so impotent for folks like the Duggars.

Good riddance to the pedoDuggar breeders and grifters.

Oh…That reminds me: Love them enough to have your pets spayed and neutered.
