Kirstie Alley Claims Teaching Kids To Be 'Open-Minded' Will Lead Them To Support Pedophilia
Former actress, Scientology advocate and avid Trump supporter Kirstie Alley was back in the public eye this week, but not because of her acting talents.
Alley decided to share an entirely unsolicited hot take via Twitter, but the internet isn't having it.
Is everyone else getting tired of these washed up QTrumplican has been actors? Or is it just me?https://www.nickiswift.com/452567/kirstie-alleys-controversial-tweets-have-twitter-in-an-uproar-heres-why/?zsource=smartnews\u00a0\u2026— Cliff W (@Cliff W) 1625364991
Alley claimed wild new ideas like comprehensive sex education and the idea people should celebrate their differences were being "crammed down our kids throats."
Alley tweeted:
"Was watching TV …we've gone too far in my opinion. I feel sorry for our children. Their exposure to everything perverse on every kind of screen is mind boggling. And even more tragic, it's being hyped as 'normal'."
Not content to leave it there, she continued:
"I'm kinda on a roll but my heart's heavy with the sh*t that's being crammed down our kid's throats. A 'moral code' is not old fashioned. Morals are simply guidelines for better survival. Explicit sexual 'education' and 'select' ideals being forced on kids is NOT better survival."
Of course she couldn't stop there, she'd already come this far in her misinformation campaign.
Kirstie Alley claims "more girls than ever are getting pregnant & abortion rates are out the roof," blaming sex education.\n\nTeen Pregnancy Rate\n1990: 117.6 in 1,000 (historic peak)\n2013: 43.4 (historic low)\n\nTeen Abortion Rate\n1988: 44.0 (historic peak)\n2013: 10.6 (historic low)pic.twitter.com/CeZqF889rO— Brandon James (@Brandon James) 1625407612
She rounded out her rambling with an extra odd and offensive assertion.
"People are becoming so 'open minded' that down the road they will support pediphilia [sic] as people 'just loving children'."
"You think I'm kidding. I'm not. It's the direction this insanity is headed. You can 'ok boomer' me all you want but this is where we will veer unless we change.
Twitter users were quick to mock Alley for the bizarre and offensive rant.

Logical fallacy alert. Fallacy of the slippery slope.https://www.britannica.com/topic/slippery-slope-argument\u00a0\u2026— David Jones (@David Jones) 1625229755
Several people reminded folks Alley is a Scientologist and of the harm perpetrated by the church coming to light in recent years.
Kirstie Alley is a member of a cult so no one should take what she says seriously— Erie Siobhan is Vaxxed to the Max \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 (@Erie Siobhan is Vaxxed to the Max \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8) 1625235345
