Imagine complaining about Biden's economy and then spending $22 on this piece of 💩.
after sending your monthly hundo to tfg.
@@ThatOpalGuywtf is tfg

You could pray for them to lower the price
Don’t forget complaining about “kids needing to stay kids” just to turn around and shove right wing politics and religion down their own kid’s throats 💀 Hypocrisy at its finest.
Brave "books" are to children's literature what Prager U is to higher education.
Definitely two sides of the same coin.
Yes! Of the same ilk. It's patriarchal religious indoctrination material targeting children.
Also, what Prager U is to children's education. Prager U is to education what crack cocaine is to healthy living.
Or what not collecting stamps is to a hobby. 👍😳👍
Weird how both insist that 'indoctrination' is bad, and yet that's their whole game.
Did no one at Brave Books remember that the female lions do much of the providing for the pride and male lions kill cubs to assert control of paternity?
It's almost like they have no clue what they're talking about.
LOL that would be a great kids book Rory the Lion mauling cubs then they learn about gender and nature
Talking properly, is the male lion the one who wrestle and kill the prey, the lioness are mostly chasers/skirmishers that weakens the prey.
With the content of the book, did no one at Brave Books realize that sometimes lionesses will begin exhibiting male behaviours, and even grow a mane?
@@khill8645and there's a lot of gay lions ( both male & female)
I wouldn't trust him around kids in the first place.
What, because you don't like him or his politics he's suddenly a child molester now? Calm down. Do you have any evidence of that at all?
Same.
Where is your evidence of what you just claimed?@@vooveks
Well . . . I greatly doubt he's a pederast, but yes, I wouldn't either, because of the miserly nature of his beliefs.
@@voovekshave you considered it may be on the basis that he’d teach the kids hateful far right wing ideology? That’s good enough reason even if you _ignore_ the far higher rate of PDF files amongst rightoids.
Sorbo is a vocal part of a mob that celebrates bullying marginalized groups. But give him his due, he was a good enough actor in Hercules while portraying a guy (demigod) who stops bullies. No, wait. That was all from the writers. Nevermind😉.
Also a polytheistic hero, a victim of a malevolent deity, which is a more realistic view of what a deity must be like.
Lucy Lawless that was the other 1/2 as Xena dunks on him constantly for being a right wing idiot.
Expressing their ignorant views isn’t necessarily bullying.
@@ThisOldHelmet Very true! And when that is all they do I find it distasteful but not threatening.
"Sorbo is a vocal part of a mob that celebrates bullying marginalized groups."
I mean, yeah, he's a christian. That's their whole deal.
So Kevin Sorbo has morphed into the 21st century version of the angry, old grandpa, sitting on his front porch, yelling at the neighborhood kids for playing in front of his house? That is just sad.
Dude had like two decent shows in him, then I guess ran out of gas. It's really a shame as it sounds like he had this personality shift after having a few strokes and apparently got to be really hard to deal with, one reason he isn't getting cast in much these days.
Who?
So did Bill Mahr and Kirk Cameron.
Pro Tip, most of those old men do it so they can laugh with the kid's parents over a beer later.
@@jonathanstern5537Maher and Cameron arent even remotely analogous to each other.
In defense of the publisher, if I was reduced to ghostwriting books like this I wouldn’t want my name on it either. They’re doing these writers a favor.
@@lurch789 I was referring to the ghostwriters who wrote the books but left off their names, not the Z-list celebrities who had their names on the books but didn’t write them.
So, he's basically a paid sponsor for a book he didn't write. That's so right wing of him. Taking credit for something he didn't do.
He should've written it himself seeing as Conservatives pride themselves on their work effort.
@@facthunt2facthunt245 😂
Here's how they might rewrite some classic kid's books to suit their agenda.
"The Little Engine That Could" would be "The Little Engine That Could Until the Union Went on Strike and He Defied the Unions and Worked As a Proud Scab Until the Union Goons Caught Up With Him and Damaged Him So Badly He Had to Be Cut Up For Scrap!!".
"The Little Red Caboose"would be "The Little Red Caboose That Was Replaced With a Flashing Rear End Device Because It Was More Efficient".
Good that there was a ghostwriter, so I don't have to be shocked by Kevin Sorbo being literate.
Man couldn't even read a script properly. Look up the disappointed scene from Hercules and how he botched that.
@@Craxin01 That scene was epic. Only a true genius would look at his line, read the stage direction and decide, no, this is the dialog and I must shout it at the top of my lungs. I'm just sad that the star of the show I watched growing up, which had a gay couple as main characters turns out to be a raging bigot. Yes, Hercules and Iolaus were a couple. I don't care about your facts and logic, I ship it. Also Xena and Gabrielle, but I think less people will want to fight me over that one.
GHOSTWRITERS IN THE SKY!!!
@@rinkuraku5251 Hercules and Iolaus were not a couple. Xena and Gabrielle were.
Yeah, the Hercules team spent so much time and effort trying to deny that Hercules and Ioalus were a couple, but they spent even more effort forcing Xena and Gabrielle as one.
*_What if we had them share a bath?_*
That's a common enough practice.
*_sharing a bath, naked get it?_*
That's generally how people take baths. What's so strange about that?
*_because they're both girls_*
Yeah, they're both _women._ What's your point?
*_Wouldn't that be hawt?_*
Sorbo must’ve saved a LOT of money from that one TV series a million years ago. 😂
He’s probably getting money from ‘The Dylan Hunt Hour’ aka ‘Andromeda’.
@@martinbaxter4783 No, no, no, I was staying for the Keith Hamilton Cobb Hour.
Hot damn
@@CRanunculusMe too, Until Sorbo messed up his character too much.
He's reportedly worth $14 million. You can make a lot of money grifting as a God-bothering right-wing bigot, apparently.
Hey that’s TWO TV series from a million years ago, thank you very much! 😡
“In those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri.” ― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Thank you for that apt quote. :)
You should see the add, it's SO homophobic!
And, honestly who cares if someone does flip a coin for gender? If it makes em happy, who the f cares?
"Let kids be kids.. not if they aren't straight or cis though of course."
Or if they want to do something that doesn’t fit a conservatives idea of gender norms.
I've seen many say "kids are too young to know who they like" when referring to science saying sexuality developes very young. Yet you know those same people when they see a five year old girl and boy say "where boyfriend and girlfriend" pretending to be romantic it's all "oh that's so cute" and do absolutely nothing to discourage it. So disingenuous.
@@anthonyrobertson2011 Tell me about it. When I was a kid, I couldn’t even say hi one of my male friends without my whole family teasing me about having a boyfriend. I’m a straight woman. Which obviously means, I am attracted to men but I wasn’t when I was in elementary school. Back then I used to go around saying things like “boys have cooties”.
Ah yes, Kevin Sorbo, the world renowned expert on gender identity. I'm sure he has loads of education on what it means to be trans, the likely causes of it (including the biological links we now know exist), and has read at least a few dozen of the thousands of peer reviewed studies produced on the topic in the past few decades. I'm sure that's why these media outlets are interviewing Sorbo and publishing his opinion, rather than rely on the expertise of literally every major medical organization in the country, all of whom agree that being transgender is a real thing which is best addressed via various forms of gender affirming care.
I'm sure that's the case... just as I'm sure the world is flat, Trump is honest, and forest fires are caused by Jewish space lasers. Makes perfect sense to me. 🙄🤮
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9do Exactly! its made up, not real. In reality only two genders exist.
(hides my Jewish space lasers) Right on!
Bravo!
You had me until Jewish space lasers. Pleeeease. 45 told us that the president of Finland told him that forest fires could be prevented by sweeping the forest floors. I tell you what, we sweep the floors and then if there's a fire after that? Bingo! Jewish space lasers! 🤣
@@pantaleimona Ah, but haven't you heard? The new plan from 45 is to create lots of canals from up north to dampen the forest floors. This will prevent forest fires, with water to spare. In fact, there will be *so* much water left over after dampening all 33 million acres of California's forests that people from Beverly Hills will no longer smell bad - they'll be able to take as many long showers as they want! I'll bet those rich folks are so relieved they'll pay for the canals themselves!
The "woke confusion" is entirely in the head of Sorbo and similar dinosaurs. Kids aren't confused.
Since "woke" can be defined loosely as being aware of injustices and wanting to improve people's lives, it's no wonder people on the right denigrate the term, and refuse to admit they know what it means.
Truth. A 6 year old, the daughter of a friend once randomly told me "some people are a boy on the inside and a girl on the outside and that's just who they are". I'm cis, she had absolutely no reason to tell me this. A 6 year old has a deeper understanding of gender than these adults though
You’re correct. I referred to myself as a boy when I was a toddler. That didn’t go away, but I was raised in a borderline cult, so I was raised as a girl.
@@rhiwrightA six year old’s “understanding” of gender might not be understanding at all, but simple parroting of what she’s been taught by adults. In this case she’s been taught what science has discovered to be true. Unfortunately what so many of today’s adults were taught about gender was limited by ignorance and religious orthodoxy, and many are slow to let go of the misinformation we parroted as children.
Yeah, it is ironic they call it "Woke Mind Virus". Or at least it would be, if not every accusation from the right turned out to be a confession......
Did he really say we give pride a month but veterans a day? November is veteran month. May is military month.
You know those right wing conservatives: lie, lie, lie, lie, and lie again.
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9do ...But somehow also cut benefits to veterans month
I don't even know what he thinks "We give pride a month" even means. Does *he* give pride a month? What is he giving, exactly?
Yeah, there's a pride parade in a lot of places. For like one day. That LGBTQ people organize themselves. He doesn't have to do anything.
We give Christmas "a whole season." I bet he conveniently has no issue with that.
It's not like a xtian to lie to forward their agenda.
Veterans don't need pride, they need mental and financial support, which (like someone mentioned) American conservative politicians voted against. It's all performance, always been, they don't actually care about veterans, presumably because in their eyes they've outlived their usefulness.
I can't help but notice that Sorbo looks like 💩 while Lucy Lawless looks amazing.
The dark side always takes a piece of those who crave its power.
@michaelmccarthy4077 - Don't mock his genetic aging, unless he contributed to it by smoking.
@@MossyMozart I didn’t say he looks old, I said he looks like 💩
You think Lawless looks better than Sorbo? Sounds like unconscious sexism to me.
@@robgraham9234no. She just looks better 🤷♀️
Something creepy about seeing a little boy and immediately envisioning him as a “strong man”. When I look at a kid I just see a kid.
Talking properly, most of the parents likes to envision their children as strong and capable, i think is a matter of which lens you see them...
@@zanir2387 oh is this book only for his kids? Because envisioning other people’s kids as “strong men” is a bit creepy.
@@Byroad3 The idea is that they want all parents to adopt the same cultural mindset. There can be no variation or deviation from that paradigm. This isn't me being hyperbolic. I'm from a very Catholic conservative community, and 99% of the boys and girls are clones of each other. I was bullied and near beaten for merely being left handed. That's right. Even the hand you use is "against god" where I grew up. You were "free" to do whatever you wanted, but you WILL be punished for it if it didn't conform to their brand of conservatism.
"There can be no variation or deviation from that paradigm"
That doesn't sound very free, and the fact that we don't all think the same yet we are all supposed to is why we would end up with countries such as Russia, North Korea, or Iran for example@@leegaul2161
@leegaul2161 I remember watching kids in my class at school being pushed and forced and punished if they didn't or couldn't switch to being right-handed. This included a girl who was crippled on her right side.
Their definition of let kid be kids sadly is all about their definition of christianity. Anything outside their definition, is wrong and evil. And of course, it wouldn't surprise they will ask their congregation to buy the books to donate and further xtianity.
And I'd like to see _any_ Christian "let kids be kids" fans completely abjure hitting children.
Same so-called Xtians who think it's fine for a 55 yr old man to marry a 12 yr old girl.
@@resourcedragon Especially the Pentecostal Dominion, populated by such ilk as James Dobson and Michael "To Train Up A Child" Pearl. So much for the idea of Focus On The Family as a milder Religious Right think tank.
Yes, shouldn't letting kids be kids be about leaving them to play and have fun with whatever they want? If a little boy wants to play with a doll and wear a dress, he could, he is freely being a kid and discovering himself, what he likes or not. Religious people push them into the role they already planned for them, they do not let them be kids.
The biggest scam is to tell people they're born in sin and there's a better place after death, but to be saved a spot they must make donations.
Sounds about right 🤣🤣🤣
“Let kids be kids.”
“My son loves to knit.”
“You need to turn that sissy into a man.”
I used to love Kevin Sorbo. I enjoyed the *"Hercules"* TV show back in the 1990s. I wasn't religious even then. I just enjoyed a good sci-fi fantasy action TV show.
He apparently took it all a bit too seriously
There were rumours and accusations at the time (you know how these things get buried) of him being difficult to work with, as well as s3xual harassment.
I had no idea what kind of dipshit he was back then. Apparently playing a god got into his head.
Xena was better anyway.
@@pattykelly6621 Playing a pagan mythological hero, no less. I wonder if Sorbo portrayed the darker aspects of that myth. I did not get into that series, nor did I watch "Xena, the Warrior Princes" other than an episode or two. Much more likely to schedule "Star Trek, the Next Generation" back then.
Herakles was beset by a malevolent deity, a much more realistic version of god than the one imagined by monotheists.
That Jewish deity in the Old Testament was a rather evil character, however.
I did not know much about the Ancients until fairly recently. If I have the time, Sorbo as Hercules might be worth checking out, as well as Xena.
The thing is... Letting, "kids be kids," means not telling them they cannot play with Godzilla toys because they are female. Or they cannot play with Barbie just because they are male. However I've got a feeling that's not what they are actually saying. Rather they are saying, "Let us mold them and indoctrinate them into what we think they should be."
(Also, fun fact. The fetus starts as a female so as far as I'm concerned, 100% of males are transgender.)
Bingo!!!!! Indoctrination from the git go!
Sorry, the foetus thing is a myth. There are significant differences from the start. (This isn't an attack on trans people. If anything, it means people can really be in the wrong body from the start.)
@@SewardWriter Oh really? That’s shocking to me, but I’d love to learn more. Any good articles you’d recommend?
And what are the main differences if I may ask?
@@stingerjohnny9951 Honestly, it's been so long since I studied, I don't have specific references. I mostly remember differences in genital development. If you look at images, there are distinct differences between clitoral and penile buds, and labial and scrotal formations. The organs are absolutely analogous, and have their similarities, but even in embryos, they look different up close.
If you look up embryonic development by sex, you should be able to find some diagrams showing the differences.
@@SewardWriter Cool, thanks for the heads up. Wait, would that mean the whole Jurassic Park thing of “we made them all female” shouldn’t work even without the frog DNA?
I wrote a book when I was in church, it was about how my pastor would touch us. They got mad about it.
simultaneously the funniest and saddest comment I've read in a while. I hope you're okay.
@summerlovinxx I'm good, therapy and self growth over the years helped. My kids will choose their own path as adults when they are capable and aware, to prevent the same trauma.
And you know he's repeated the cat litter box lie.
Which I still think is a case of "Telephone".
A catastrophically misheard true story I mean.
He certainly doesn't mind anthropomorphising animals, though
That's why he started selling paper to put in the bottom of it.
@@adamvancleave9200 To imagine it's not intentionally done even when they do make things up all the time and deliberately misrepresent things is a bit foolish.. they have spent well over a billion dollars in just a handful of European countries pushing Anti-Gender religious extremist propaganda.
In the US they spent $50 Million on Trans kids in sports in just a couple of months.
Like you see a guy setting houses on fire, and then your house catches on fire and you believe this instance is just a wild accident.
@@adamvancleave9200it actually wasnt. It was a politician lieing about his local school to get votes. He got sued for defamation by the school
Just for that, I'm gonna write a book with a character that is a harsh parody of Sorbo.
And I'm a leftist Christian who finds fundies like Sorbo disgraceful, boring, and pathetic.
Trouble is, Sorbo has become a parody of Sorbo, which makes your task a difficult one. Poe's law and all that.
@@barrylangille3523 I could add something new to it, an exaggeration of him. Like, his parody having a fractured genital after rough drunk lovemaking with his wife and now he's permanently impotent, much to his wife's frustration. Oh and they have three daughters but he wished they were boys.
And his nickname behind his back is "Soreboner"
Let me start you off with the storyline. It should be about a lion that shrunk into a cub and no matter how hard he tries, he can't roar. Then when he realises that he is actually a kitten and life is better that way, he yet again gets invited to playdates.
How far Left?
@@Medgewick not sure.
But it involves BLM, Transgender and Enby rights, etc.
Imagine being more concerned that your child is getting the right indoctrination instead of wether they are learning to read or think or something useful. What’s going to happen in 25 years when one party in American can’t read stop signs and doesn’t believe they apply to them?
They already think Stop signs don't apply to them. They ignore the law when it's an inconvenience to them.
We already have a bunch of those, they're called Sovereign Citizens and they are fun as hell to watch being arrested.
Carl Sagan Sort Of Predicted The Rise Of Donald Trump 25 Years Ago.
Well, it turns out that the late astronomer Carl Sagan may have predicted this era of distrust in authority figures - of sorts. As a number of people have picked up online, Sagan made an eerie prediction in his 1995 book The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark that seems to echo the events of the past year.
Here’s the quote in full:
“Science is more than a body of knowledge; it is a way of thinking. I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time - when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness.”
Sound familiar? Thought so. In addition to this, Sagan also made some similar comments (around the 3.50 mark in that link) in an interview with Carlie Rose in 1996:
“Science is more than a body of knowledge. It’s a way of thinking. A way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions, to interrogate those who tell us something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we’re up for grabs for the next charlatan, political or religious, who comes ambling along.”
In 25 years? Trump won in 2016. Its already happening
Too late all of the GOP/maggots already think this way😢😢
I think he's lyin' about how much work he put into this book.
That's definitely interesting about Brave Books being co-credited for authorship. That really makes you wonder if just like you suspected if it wasn't mostly or all Brave Books that wrote the book and they were taking advantage of Kevin Sorbo's name recognition or something.
I'm kind of wondering how much Sorbo paid to get his name on the cover.
I say they all have a ghost writer. A left writer should go undercover and write something outrageous.
@@scottdelahunt586He probably just gets a portion of sales. He’ll get more by appearing on right wing programs and doing interviews on RSBN.
The post calling for writers put "authors" in quotes. If that's not a wink and a nod to just how much the celebrity authors contribute, I don't know what is. It's pretty clear that Brave Books has control over the story, which they want and need if they are to have the consistency from book to book, and the"author" on tbe cover willingly adds their name for market reach.
I wouldn't be surprised if they wrote the book completely before they even talked to Sorbo. Putting his name on it is just a publicity tactic.
But male lions never become providers for their pride...
Talking properly is the male lion the one who wrestle the prey after the lioness tired it...
Very sad the lengths Sorbo goes to pretend he's relevant.
The second to the last person I would trust to be around children would be a religious person.
The last Person I would trust to be around children would be a catholic priest.
@RobertSmith-gx3mi - I bet that Ivanka never lets her kids be around tfg alone.
Luckily not one child has actually read those books
Not mine for sure
ChatGPT can write a better kids book than Brave Books can!
Some of them are almost okay. Telltale has read a bunch of them.
He never made a convincing Hercules to me. Maybe because I grew up with Lou Ferrigno being Hercules. You know, like punching bears into outer space and throwing logs into outer space.
Yeah, exactly. But I used to love the Greek myths books, so I watched, even though I considered him girly😂
I found his TV shows unwatchable.
When was Lou Ferrigno Hercules? I only know of him as the hulk.
i always thought Hercules' wimpiness was a tongue in cheek irony or something.
whereas the actor playing Xena really did offer up a heroic silhouette
That show was the worst, full of horrible acting and the worst storylines.
Remember that actors are only people who pretend to be something thay aren't. That includes being an authority on about anything. Strawmen.
Writing that book was a Herculean task for Kevin.
Okay, I lol'ed.
To be fair, I have a queer friend who swaps their gender presentation on a whim. Literally rolling a dice to decide between being a man or woman for that day would totally be something they would do. And you know what, it's fine
Being androgynous isn't the same as transgender. I'm glad you are able to accept your friend, but just saying, queer can be many things. Also nonbinary can be choosing gender presentation on how one feels. Transgender is different, and someone changing gender like clothing doesn't tell anything about transgender.
(I'm nonbinary and can relate to how your friend is.)
@@elainelouve I do understand there are critical differences between being gender fluid and trans. I don't "get" any of it, since I'm just uncomplicated cis het, but that doesn't really matter ;)
BTW: I like the word "queer" because it is non-specific / inclusive.
@@travcollier same, the word queer is simple.:)
I suspect the book is a simply a FANTASY production. The conservative Christian have trouble sussing that out....
From Brave Books: "We are not currently accepting manuscripts and we are exclusively publishing content we produce."
So they write it, the celeb lets them put celeb's name on it, and the celeb has something to tweet about and a booking hook for the right-wing media.
I think you nailed it.
I have no respect for the books themselves, but WHY IS THE ART SO GOOD? Seriously, the covers look really cute and I really wish they weren't attached to such trash writing.
Right wing lunatics have enough money to hire really good artists.
Memorable books from my childhood: Mr. Punnymoon's Train and EVERY Dr. Seuss book.
Yes children, learn about Jesus from the avatar of a pagan god.
That isn’t true
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9do Jesus is the Son of God, He and God the Father are one.
Weirdly, they are trying to ban a kids book called "Red" which is about a blue crayon with a red label, and is less about trans , and more about finding what you are good at.
The only time I paid $20 for a kids book was when I was buying a book directly from the author and their small publishing company. It was a local author that did a kids book on how otters form "rafts" by holding hands when they rest and sleep. The story itself was just facts about Otters it was the artwork that was the big deal for kids since it is just filled with cute drawing of otters
Kevin Sorbo, clearly famous for his morales and not being a insane person.
Disney may want to call their lawyers - the lion in Kevin's book looks an awful lot like Simba from the Lion King!
Men are not the "providers" for their families anymore. Both parents usually are providing because of necessity and because women enjoy having a career too. It's not the 1950s anymore. LOL Gender roles have evolved and will always evolve. When I was married, I was the provider and he was a struggling college student.
It is funny that Brave Books put “authors” in quotation marks. 😆
I worked in "Hollywood" for a while. Actors are just talking props. No one should care what any of them think or say.
Good actors are convincing liars!
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9doI think part of the problem is that due to their training, actors are far more willing than many others to speak far outside their sphere of knowledge, and do so confidently.
Sorbo doesn't have any scientific or sociological education, but he's more than willing to speak on them emphatically because of the background he does have -- in marketing and theatre.
" Disappointed! " -Hercules
How often do you create a new channel?
Are Kevin Sorbo and James Caviezel friends?
Have cookouts over at Kirk Camerons house ....talking bout how gorgeous they think Jesus is and stuff ?
Who cares, peanut
Now I will be honest. I liked Xena Warrior Princess More than Hercules. Xena was really tough and I like that.
Secondly: I didn't really mind him in Andromeda. That was actually an intresting idea from the creator of Star Trek.
That said, Kevin Sorbo is an idiot.
He thumbed through the book maybe and said "Ok, put my name on it." LOL
I suspect you're close to what actually happened there.
I watched some episodes of Hercules when I was a child, I thought Kevin Snorbo was a good actor, when I was 10.
The only problem is that he wants to be the Rock, and he really sucks at it. KSnore doesn't have any acting skills, other than being tall with good hair.
The hodgetwins are like listening to randy savage have a conversation with himself in his grunts and throat noises only. Couldn't find two brain cells to rub together between the pair.
So it's basically proof this publisher is 100% writings all these books and approaching the "celebrity" with all of them written, and asking which they want their name on, to target that celebrities audience.
Whoever wrote the book didn't bother to research lions. If they had, they would know female lions do the majority of the hunting while males stay home guarding the pride's territory, look after the cubs, and feed them while the lionesses are out hunting. So male lions are the lion version of a stay at home husband.
I watched Poolboy Drowning out the Fury years ago. I thought the racism in the movie was a joke until I realized how crazy Sorbo was and that he prob wrote those lines lol
I didn't know about that movie and looked it up on IMDB. Synopsis: California has been taken over by Mexicans... Yeah it does sound pretty racist from the start, many will see Mexicans as a real threat (as shown by all the crazy maga who fear them so much and like to see Mexican children in cage or getting cut by the razors while trying to cross the river). And just a few of the key words on this movie in IMDB: Female frontal nudity, man carries a topless woman upside down, topless blind woman, sex on a kitchen counter... and then Sorbo thinks he can teach morality? I guess like Boebert and Candice Cameron, as long as it's not gay sex, you can do what you want... To be honest I have no problem with a movie with those things but it is just very hypocritical of Sorbo.
Ordinarily, I'm opposed to book-burning.
Maybe try book mulching. Not sure what inks they use, but it might be safe for composting.
It is just barely a book 😂
You remind me of that awesome skeptic guy from the series 'evil' in all the best ways, i appreciate your videos, thank you and have a wonderful day!
Ironic because theres a used bookstore here in El paso Texas called Brave Books and the owner is an outspoken progressive.
I read a children's story from like the mid-eighteen hundreds about a race with some hedgehogs, but the moral of the story was to marry within your own kind. I might have read it in The Book of Oxford Children's Verses or something like that.
@angelaa7388 - Oh great! Now you alerted so-called brave books to this gem that is now out of copyright so that they can print it tomorrow.
When Fox still had the King Of The Hill chat room up and running,I wrote quite a bit of fan fiction on there.
I did a parody of "A Christmas Carol " with Charlie Sheen in it as well as a parody of "The DaVinci Code" with Dale Gribble and Fox Mulder called "The Dale Vinci Code" and my piece de resistance a "Left Behind"parody titled "Staying Right Here:A Novel of The Beginning of the End of The Beginning of The End of The Beginning of The End of The Beginning of The End of The Beginning of The End-Or'Apocolypse Wow'!!
I loved Hercules the Legendary Journeys as a kid and have seen Sorbo in a movie or two and liked him as an actor .. but finding out what he's really like? It was a horrible disappointment and I've lost any respect I had for him and avoid him like the plague now. I hope the idiocy is worth it to him.
Lion? Looks like a field mouse

“Back in the 90’s I was in a very famous TV show “
🎵
( Just a joke if any Bojack Horseman fans here😂)
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9do agreed it’s a masterpiece of a show, genius
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9do The only difficult thing about Bojack Horseman is…
Trying to persuade people to watch it.
So many people can’t see past” it’s a cartoon “ so they don’t even give it a chance.
Which is sad, they’re missing out on a wonderful show
great video ❤ as trans person, it always means a lot to see allies covering stuff like this. it's not easy right now and we need people making content like this ❤❤❤
Solidarity,
But making everyone the same is your ilk’s main policy! What are you saying Kevin?
It's been so long since I gave a thought to that Hercules TV series that I was thinking "Kevinsorbo" was something you use to get rid of toenail fungus.
What’s extra funny is that lions have been shown to be trans
"DISAPPOINTED!!" - Kevin Sorbo
I read a lot of children's books aloud to my kids. I can tell the best ones because I can still recite entire passages from them. "Now let's have a little talk about Tweetle Beetles..."
If Sorbo wrote any part of the book, he did so because it's at his grade level.
Kevin needed a ghost writer to write a children’s book! 😂
I would bet an entire paycheck that if I published a “kids book” telling a story about a kid learning that A book can’t tell you how to live your life, (no matter how many people think it has all the answers) there would be someone calling for personal attacks on me within a week.
Even though “it’s not an anti religion book, it’s just encouraging critical thinking.”
Unfortunately, a lot of books like that have already been banned. Read some of John Green’s books.
I don't know of any public library that would accept an unsolicited request from an author to do a reading. They operate on a "Don't call us, we'll call you," policy. If an author wants to do a reading in a library, they can apply to rent the library's program room, if it has one. This is what Kirk Cameron was told, in response to which he claimed to be a persecuted Christian.
I've written two unpublished childrens' books.
I mention that because I'm sure mine are better than Sorbo's.
Of course, grocery lists would be better than Sorbo's, but still, mine must be better, because I wrote those to entertain, not harangue!
Kevin Sorbo was great............... in Meet the Spartans.
Also, did they base the character design of the main character off of Matt Walsh?
I despise the phrase, "boys will be boys". It is ALWAYS used to excuse the inexcusable.
The Hodgetwins, also known as the Conservative Twins, are an American stand-up comedy and conservative political commentary duo consisting of twin brothers Keith and Kevin Hodge. The twins started out as CZcamsrs, but in 2016 branched out to live stand-up comedy shows as well.
Their careers were not helped when stories they spread about Biden and BLM turned out to be fake. Then they were uninvited from a couple of gigs because they are openly transphobic, but they are bouncing back with sponsorship and merch sales.
Personally, I think they are turds.
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9do I got that off Google, I am not the charitable one here, what I think is not exactly particularly politically correct
If the Hercules TV Show exists, then how come there is still a Kevin Sorbo? This proves Evilution is false.
Evolution?>
@@Imperial-Socialist Many Right Wing North American Christians call it "Evil ution". Their use of "Why are there still monkeys..." only displays ignorance.
Owen morgan has done a great rundown of many of these books on his Telltale reads channel.
José also made a video about them
@@bashirabdel-fattah9499 I'm not familiar with José. What is their channel?
@@flaming_bentley Their channel name is literally just "José"
Here is an actually great children's book authored by a celebrity: A Chocolate Moose for Dinner, written and illustrated by Fred Gwynne. Look it up. Fantastic word play and art! I loved this book as a kid, and only recently realized it was Fred Gwynne who wrote AND illustrated it! Real talent.
why is the lion character cosplaying Matt Walsh?
So when do we think James Caviezel will come out with a book for kids after his "movie"? That was a guy i enjoyed as an actor on Person of Interest but after the oast few years of his beliefs I now understand why the show went the way it did and why he was passed up for SEAL Team at the last minute.
Nobody’s putting that that Qanon weirdo in any Hollywood movies anytime soon.
Aw really? He's a nutter too?
He wrote a children’s book for a reason. He submitted a novel and his editor re-branded. They made no changes.
These books aren’t for children. They’re morality props for politically antagonistic conservatives.
Did I know Kevin Sorbo has written a book? I didn't know he _could_ write.
Edit: 0:54 says it pretty much all...
"It's not a doll, it's an action figure!"
"disappointed!!!!"
tHe sorbz lmao
Does Sorbo realize that Heracles/Hercules was a bisexual character, from a pagan religion?
I'm surprised he can read much less write.
Raspberry Sorbet is so uncomfortably weird the brain eating aliens brought him back for a refund.
Wasn’t Hercules famously in love with Hylas? So much so that he quit the Ship of Heros (the Argo, the first vessel to have a name) because Hylas went missing? One of the icons of being a great hero and being gay.
He's looking so old.... good
Sorbo wants us to be men, and frighten the sheep!🙀
Kevin Sorbo is the Arnold Schwarzenegger we have at home.
I'm glad Sorbo didn't go into politics.
No comparison.
I’ve read this book it was absolutely disgusting I’d NEVER give this book to a child EVER!! It’s full of propaganda and hate
Herculies
Who?
Girly Hercules from the 90s😂
@@PaTrick-cf6ev That doesn't help.
He's obviously a nobody and/or has been that barely was in the first place.
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9do In other words: he's pratacally irrelevant.
No offense to Hemant intended, of course. He does some great work exposing nobodies such as this and their twisted agenda.
@KathrynElizabeth-kx9do Ben Shapiro's audience/ratings were so small that he gt booted from most of the radio station he was on. We are talking 0.0 shares in every demographic.
