This is a great article.



Thanks for posting, I agree. Just read the whole article. I especially like point 2 and point 4. From the article:

"Speaking of hypocrites, I’m going to be very frank with you: I simply don’t believe most progressives actually care that Josh Duggar touched his sisters when he was 14. I don’t believe they are upset about it, or that it offends them, or that they are morally troubled by it. I don’t believe them. I just don’t."

This was the exact point I was trying to make at the beginning of this thread, and why I asked a pp if they actually watched the show, and if they did, why. I totally agree that nobody on here criticizing the duggars give a damn about what josh did, all they care about is acting outraged so they can talk about how they were right for hating them all along. It's really, really sad.



It's really, really sad that you're such an idiot.


Very mature. Care to explain why I'm such an idiot, or is that too hard for you and I just am because you said so!


Not that PP. Nope, not much to say in response. I think the Quiverful movement in general is extremely harmful to everyone in it. I think the Duggars are not a model family. I'm really sad for them, that that happened and that they chose to deal with it by starting a reality show. The poor girls and poor Josh. They were all let down by their parents.



I don't think you're being sincere, because if you really were sad for them, you wouldn't be participating in this conversation that is 90% negative comments and judgment about the family.

So, why are you here if you think it's only naysayers? You have no idea who's here, or why. If it's so objectionable to you to hear people disparaging the Duggars, why don't you start a thread of your own? The fact that you think that "progressives" don't care about the victims and are merely rolling around in glee is unbelievably immature.

I've been posting since the thread started because I like the duggars. Everyone has a right to post here, not just the naysayers. Why do you not want people to post here if they support the duggars? See how everyone of your questions can be asked back to you? At least I answer when someone asks me something. At least I'm trying to add something to the discussion other than calling people names and ignoring questions that require some thought to answer. You are calling me immature, but what about the people responding to my post with nothing but "you're an idiot"? How do you feel about that?

Hey PP,

I watched The Duggars for years. It was interesting to me because I am an only child with an atheist father and a mother who was raised religiously herself but never took me to church. Their story was interesting to me. Their lifestyle was interesting to me. Their family was interesting to me. I thought some of their ideas were outdated, but I also thought they were good people and pretty harmless. Dare I say I enjoye watching their family.

I am disgusted. I am outraged. I care about what Josh did to those little girls. I give a damn about what Josh did, and it isn't just because I want something to be outraged about. It's because what he did was wrong.


Thank you for your thoughtful response! I doubt that you are one of the pp's on here saying horrible stuff though. If more people could say things the way that you just did, I never would have had a reason to write that post where I quoted the article. I have no problem with people posting about their outrage if it was genuine and sincere like yours is.

whatever. Just don't claim to know what everyone else thinks about the kids. There have been many, many expressions of support for the children, including Josh, but you claim that everyone here hates them all. Maybe you're not immature, but you just can't read. I don't really care. you are not interesting to me at all.

Because someone didn't watch the show and generally find their religious views and political stances harmful means that our horror for the victims can't be sincere?

I am sincere in wishing to break those poor girls away from the cult that would force them to be subservient to these nasty men who teach them that boys doing disgusting to them is somehow their fault.

I'm not the poster you were asking to respond. But I'm pretty sure there are many like me.

But you see, PP who is so concerned about people trash talking the Duggars - this is the price you pay when you put your family on TV. It comes with the territory.

1. I never said everyone here hates them all, go back and read my posts, and quote where I said that, and then we'll talk.

2. Maybe you are the one who needs to read a little more carefully.

3. I'm interesting enough for you to keep responding to me.

How in the hell can you know anything about their religious views and political stances if you didn't watch the show? You rely on what people tell you and that's good enough for you to know that your opinion is correct?!?! Wow.

I'd like to think that MOST people form opinions from information that they got first hand and not what was told to them by someone else. But maybe I'm wrong.........

It's really, really sad that you're such an idiot.

Why am I an idiot? Because I'm too stupid to go along with whatever you say is right? If you are so much smarter, you'd write at least one reason why I'm an idiot, but all you did was +1000 to show you agree with someone else. How smart are you?

You are an idiot. No need to waste time justifying why.It's that obvious to everyone except you. Unlike you, most people have lives, so we don't need to make up reasons to justify your pathetic whining. Go get a life now, run along.

Does anyone care to speculate what we think TLC/Anna and some of his siblings will do? Do you think he will come back to arkansas? Can the family get through this and remain in the public eye?

Or are we going to keep bitching at one another?

No, you're too stupid and immature to list one reason. You call names and then ask people to leave because you're not smart enough to have your beliefs challenged you're lazy and stupid. You think it's a waste of time to back up why you believe something? That tells me that you don't have the ability to do it. You're the pathetic one. Now go to bed and get some rest so you have enough energy to sit around on dcum calling people names tomorrow. It must take a lot of mental energy for you to spend so much time thinking up clever reasons not to back up your opinions with facts, so you need to get some rest.

I think they will move back to AK, they have no reason to stay where they are now that he quit his job that he moved here for. I'm not sure what tlc will do, probably cancel? Will the duggars even WANT to keep the show going? I doubt it kind of, but who knows. I think the family will be fine, they seem like they ar pretty resilient.

I think TLC will cancel them, but sadly I think Anna and the rest of the Duggars will continue to act like it's no big deal. Anna claims she knew about it before she married him. What woman in her right mind would enter into marriage with someone knowing what he did...

I agree they will move back. I wonder who will pay the tax bill, which until a few days ago was 54k but now is being reported as 10k, confusing.

I enjoy Jessa and Jill and would like it if TLC continued with the focus on their lives.

You have 60 pages of thread to parse out how people feel about the Duggars. What posters expressed in these 60 pages include a lot of criticism about their lifestyle and beliefs - because the Duggars put themselves in the public eye. We are not a board of internet strangers digging up a story on some random family. We are commenting on a family that has sought the limelight for years. Criticism is not the same as glee. The vast majority of critical posters here have also spent pages and pages expressing disbelief, grief and sympathy for the victims and josh himself.
