Here's one of those out-of-context tweets that just sort of stands out in a thread. There was originally some discussion of "Gender Queer" and just how sexually explicit those illustrations are, but then it somehow took a detour into claims that Christian conservatives actively practice child marriage.
You act as if child marriage is not legal, consistently defended by the GOP, and an active practice within conservative christian circles. By having educated conversations about historic practice we can critique how those practices are maintained today. This is development.

We're all for educated conversations, but this certainly isn't part of one.
Child marriage is not legal, it's not defended by the GOP and its not an active practice within conservative Christian circles. https://t.co/MYJ4CSHTyG

This is obviously someone well-acquainted with conservative Christian circles.
