Pinning this boycott to the top of the sub. We can reconvene on the idea either at the end of pride or around the birth (if it is early) and discuss if you guys liked it/if doing like a detox was a good idea. I know some people have provided social media numbers on here before, so that would probably be a good idea to review then to see if this was effective (maybe someone could note below this comment their patreon/instagram/YouTube followers as a kind of preliminary point? Just a thought). I am not going to lock the flair as people tend to just select other ones when they don't get their first choice, which makes more work for our team. Please just be reasonable if a post does come up--we do get a lot of modmails and reports already and our team values leading balanced lives.


CaterpillarHookah

Take away their flair and relegate them to "minor fundie" status.


kelpself

the ultimate diss


BeNiceLynnie

Omg please do this, at least temporarily. Someone needs to remind them that they are minor influencers, not big celebrities.


Mooseandagoose

Sick burn. Paul may never recover.


Significant_Shoe_17

GOOD


TOnihilist

Oh my god. Such a good idea.


mrsbillnye

Any new posts asking for an update should get a 🤐 reply.


Significant_Shoe_17

Any posts under their tag should get a reply like "you seem to have tagged this p&m. Please post under 'minor fundie'"


BumCadillac

lol or a reminder to not post about them


Bambo0zalah

And/or link to “posts you might like” but they all happen to be about TNE


StarGrump

The pettiness of this gives me LIFE. My gay ass is cackling and kicking my feet


makama77

Omg SAMEEEEE


PINKR0SEBUDS

it’s our month anyway. we stole the rainbow from Jesus fair and square!!


StefBerlin

My straight ass is giggling and clapping my hands 😂


247cnt

Like Tinkerbell withering away from lack of attention


DelicateTruckNuts

You devil! I'm In


StinkyRattie

I am all for this


EatsAtomsRegularly

PLEASE


Significant_Shoe_17

This made me laugh out loud. Yes lol


DataTheCat

I’m in favor of this.


GypseboQ

The cackle I just cacked!


muppetfeet82

Sounds great. I’m far more interested in Kelly’s sapphic retreat than them anyway.


kelpself

We should all make "Kelly's sapphic retreat handmade apron"-sonas. I'd personally be a yellow gingham.


idontwearheels

Feeling like I’d be a forest green heavyweight linen apron with lavender and California poppies embroidered.


AstarteHilzarie

Okay but I unironically want this


laqueefaecho

So do I.


knittensarsenal

This is way, way out of her league (and awesome)


idontwearheels

Alright, time for me to bust out that beginning embroidery kit and learn after all these months. I shall report back when I can embroider lavender.


beekeeperoacar

I'd actually buy her aprons if she made one that pretty!


idontwearheels

Don’t give me side hustle ideas 🌼


Significant_Shoe_17

I want this, too


DearMissWaite

I'm a tartan I can hide curry stains in.


whistful_flatulence

The respect I just gained for tartan


muppetfeet82

Oh I’m definitely the same print as the wallpaper in my childhood bedroom: it looked like rows of little red flowers, but they were hearts on stems with a cheery yellow background. Deliciously twee.


MRSA_nary

I’d love to be a purple with sunflowers. The purple should be the color of the dusk, after the sun has retired from its long day of shining. Spreading light to the world wherever it reaches. Growing all the plants that nourish our bodies and fill our girlish bodies. The sunflowers represent strength, reminding us to always lean towards the Son who should be our strength. Always reaching, always growing towards his light and love.


About400

Ok- I nominate you for the nickname SunLover


really_tall_horses

I think I’d do a nice sage with little floral pattern since I’m feeling saucy.


Dapper_Rowlet

God I want “Kelly’s sapphic retreat apron” as my flair now lol


ilikeorangejuicety

I've been trying to figure out a worthy flair from this situation


Dapper_Rowlet

There’s so many out there, just gotta find one lol. Like I KNOW there’s something in my brain somewhere


ilikeorangejuicety

Something gingham skirts, something something sapphic yearning there's one for all of us out there


Dapper_Rowlet

Yearning for sapphic gingham skirts?


ilikeorangejuicety

prairie skirts and sapphic yearning. Maybe I was overcomplicating it. Tho this sounds like a general Kelly flair and not too retreat specific. Hmm. I feel like this shouldnt be this hard. I'm sure I'll think of a good one eventually! ETA: I think I changed it!


dramaqueen09

I claim chinoiserie because that’s what I want my hypothetical dream kitchen theme to be


beekeeperoacar

I'll be an apron she named Primrose. It's dusty red dappled in pink.


nicunta

I'd be purple and black gingham. A nice, vibrant, royal purple.


Significant_Shoe_17

Cottagecore goes punk


nicunta

Sounds about right!!


Wonder_Moon

I want to make this my new flair 💃


kelpself

It's all yours 🕺


Wonder_Moon

so godhonoring of you to share


Melodic-Exercise-999

Beige canvas, pockets shaped like broccoli. Tattered and torn from wear and long days ~~across from the Circle K~~ kneading spelt loaves, while the light of Jesus’s love dances in my heart, and shines in my coppery locks. I will delight in twirling about in this most miraculous garment. In reality though… something absorbent, because there’s never enough damn hand towels in this house. And in any shade of green.


PocoChanel

Deep green background and paisley in lighter green and robin's-egg blue.


ravenonawire

I also absolutely feel like a yellow gingham. Otherwise I’d be florals but I think that might be too creative and not prairie enough.


YouWiseGuise

Harvest gold in a chunky homespun plaid.


FreckledHomewrecker

Yes! Kelly’s keeping the snark fresh with her whacky retreat. Paul and Morgan are spewing the same uninformed bile they’ve been spewing for years. 


9livescavingcontessa

I’m a synthetic-linen blend pinafore apron in a too bold sprig pattern, cut wrong so the seams wrinkle and it hangs weird. None of the pattern pieces line up.


Ineffable_Dingus

YES I'm so invested


booktrovert

I would love to forget them, but every time I go outside there are things that remind me of them. For example, today is trash day so there are trash bags everywhere. But I never post about them, so I'm in.


FartofTexass

I saw some dog poop on the ground and it reminded me of the stuff Porgan says. 


Blueberry-Common

I cleaned out my cats litter tray and it reminded me of their views today


Melodic-Exercise-999

I’ve had Taco Bell recently. Infer what you will.


knellerscamper

But with your flair 😂😂😂


CrystallineFrost

I need to talk with my dog then about why she keeps rolling in Porgan sayings.


Significant_Shoe_17

My dog needs a bath. The questionable stains on her fur remind me of porgan's content.


pinalaporcupine

LMAO


Open_Ad1554

Bahahahah I love you. We should all aspire to this Christian love. My son and I spent this afternoon cleaning up our neighborhood garbage and then giving dinner to our unhoused neighbors. But I’m queer so it doesn’t count.


Open_Ad1554

But seriously, we should all aspire to this love for our fellow humans. That’s literally what Jesus asked us to do. How can anyone feel above that


Raoul_Dukes_Mayo

Pass me a towel. You just made me spit water on the bed. 🙄


Istoh

I'm in. It's not like they'll be doing anything interesting anyways lmao. 


FatDesdemona

Right. Like, what, Paul's going to get a job all of a sudden? Nope.


Fckingross

We might miss a trip to Walmart 😩


CrystallineFrost

If anyone feels left out, I can go to Walmart and take pictures of random dvds and review them all. 8/10, does or does not have chocolate.


fool-of-a-took

Paul might learn how to work a grill.


Istoh

Saw his grill skills already. And as hamburgers are not pickleballs, and cooking things involves having to care about your family and keep a consistent meal schedule, I don't believe Paul capable of grilling on a regular enough basis to learn anything. 


sortofsatan

When’s the baby due?


Istoh

I think maybe July or August? I can't actually remember.


sortofsatan

Okay cool cause that’s the only interesting thing they have coming up


fool-of-a-took

The baby's going to throw up when it sees Paul.


Significant_Shoe_17

Of course. Fundies have babies for the content


allthesamejacketl

I’m in :) I had some things to say about their hurt feelings but I can just as easily starve them of attention✨💖✨


banesmoonshine

This is a great idea. I’m convinced that the majority of their traffic comes from snarkers. They would shrivel up without us


Significant_Shoe_17

That's why it's so important to watch on yewtu.be, or through snark channels/FSU, and of course don't touch the poo!


Significant_Shoe_17

Also use 3rd party viewers for instagram


sortofsatan

I’m gonna have to bother my real life friends with snark about them for the month of June


TrumpsCovidfefe

The only thing they’re going to rant about is pride month. We aren’t going to miss much.


projectvko

Who?


YourMothersButtox

Her?


banesmoonshine

It’s as Anne as the nose on Plain’s face


Significant_Shoe_17

Egg?


How2twerkUpdown

I like this idea


Luna_Soma

Happy Pride 🩷💜💙 I love this


Lydia--charming

🏳️‍🌈


Hot-Class8889

Yes! I'd be up for ignoring them for good!


madd-eve

I’m with you - I sure wouldn’t miss them from here if they were gone for good! But I wonder if it’ll end up driving up their engagement with our sub members giving them views, if they can’t access them here? That would be bad 😬


Altruistic-Ad3661

I never watch their stories and I sure as shit would never think of them to remember to look if they were not here. I would forget they exist so quickly.


Significant_Shoe_17

Same. I forget people who aren't posted frequently.


RangerDangerfield

I think the opposite. They would lose engagement if snarkers aren’t trying to mine them for content.


holyrosewater

I like this idea. The silent treatment is snarky in a WWJD kinda way.


PeaceOfKind

"If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at alll" I will never have anything nice to say about those doorknobs so silent treatment it is!


YourGalMal

Yes!!! WWFSUD? 🙏🙏🙏


cornylifedetermined

It's the only way to kill a narcissist.


Significant_Shoe_17

No more narcissistic supply


Blueberry-Common

This makes me think of “Jesus said “turn the other cheek””


Fuck_Weyland-Yutani

Jesus said "grey rock 'em"


JulieCrone

I’m in. Especially after the TNE episode, these two are just so utterly uneducated about their own beliefs, let alone about our beliefs. What about focusing snark on a fundie pastor each week during June? Unlike semi-literate dolts with a camera (ie Paul), they should be able to contend with the very mainline Protestant things Tim said, but they really don’t and strawman to death.


sweetalkersweetalker

I love this idea. Just make sure that this is somewhere stickied to the start of every comment section otherwise I will forget what we're doing


catsolo03

Not only are they uneducated but they refuse to actually engage in actual conversation. TNE had questions in their live that Porgan refused to answer! So what is even the point??


Significant_Shoe_17

It's clear that they don't consider Tim a Christian, but they couldn't say it! If they're so secure in their beliefs, they should be able to share them with confidence, even if others disagree.


catsolo03

Right exactly it was a total conundrum for them to meet someone who believes in Jesus which is what makes him/anyone a Christian! Seems like the sub is taking a break from Porgan which in my opinion is needed. But I hope they continue to do this because you can tell that this is expanding their own view of Christianity whether they are aware of it or not. They seemed to be genuinely surprised at how normal it was to hang out with these people who share differing views than them. Which makes sense coming from the fundie community where it is so insular.


HMCetc

Paul wishes he had half the confidence Tim has.


Significant_Shoe_17

In a previous video, they couldn't answer why they're Christians. With TNE, they couldn't answer whether they consider Tim a Christian or not. They believe what they believe because an authority figure told them to when they were small, and they're afraid of not believing.


bye-raspberry

I support this sub doing this for every fundie whose "brand" is to constantly create outrage for attention. Paul and Morgan, Lori, Solie, Tyson James... probably more I can't think of. Those are the ones that thrive off attention imo


EmmerdoesNOTrepme

JillPM! Bort Anne--but of Ohio "retreats", *not* Green Gables (is her name Kelly?)


ravenonawire

NOO not before Kelly’s Sapphic Yearning Retreat!


Significant_Shoe_17

We NEED the retreat snark


Significant_Shoe_17

Jillpm kind of self-regulates by going dark occasionally. Idk if she runs out of data or what.


1nconsp1cuous

KKKarissa too.


Raoul_Dukes_Mayo

Sooo, we’re shutting the sub down then? 😂


RobinhoodCove830

Yeah, it's basically all of them.


CrystallineFrost

So long and thanks for all the snark guys! 🐟🐟🐟


WadsworthInTheHall

Yes, PLEASE! I’d love to go a month without seeing Paul’s smarmy face.


TheCreatorCrew

Alright, this got way more attention than I was expecting, so hopefully this doesn’t get lost: This would be entirely orchestrated by ourselves. Our lovely mods have enough on their plate, so taking away their flair or putting an official status on this is probably out of the question. This embargo would also mean not viewing Porgan more than necessary. No need to give their accounts any boosts, let them shrivel up ✨💜


oneleggedoneder

Can we get it pinned?


CrystallineFrost

I am willing to pin it. I just don't think locking the flair to posts will stop people because historically people just pick something else and I don't want to lock all the flairs obviously. Feel free though to downvote anything Porgan that comes up in your desired sub boycott and just tag me if you guys want to reconvene on the idea. I think it is a fine concept to boycott a fundie a month or just boycott them at least until the birth. Let them stew a bit, it will strangle the antibot attempt to get numbers too.


GamerGirlLex77

I’m up for it


67Gumby

That seems like a great idea (my child is queer) and they do thrive off hatred.


PookSpeak

Mine too, so I am ALL on board ignoring the most boring, immature fundies on the internet.


MasterChicken52

Who will they pray for if they can’t “pray for all their haters”


sweetalkersweetalker

Themselves, hopefully


PookSpeak

I mean if any of us happen to miss 90's H&M Paul and Ditzy you could always watch the clip of Ditzy throwing up during their wedding vows.


Team-Mako-N7

That was the only interesting thing about them LOL


Significant_Shoe_17

Or Paulsack trying to play pickleball!


loligogiganticus

I’m game. Tbh I loathe them so much I tend to just scroll past their posts anyway.


CentrifugalBubblePup

Same here. I’d be down for a Least Favorite Fundie of the month where we rotate through them all to give ourselves a break!


1nconsp1cuous

I REAL like this idea.


PeaceOfKind

I nominate Seggsy Bort posts to get the next ban!


SarahSmithSarahSmith

Tanking their relevance and engagement even more in honor of Pride month? Let’s do it. 


Negative-Refuse-3848

Is there a way to have mods set up a poll to make this actually happen?


CrystallineFrost

Mod here, I say just go for it. You do you, guys. If you want to boycott posting them for however long you want, this is ultimately your sub and nothing about this breaks reddit rules, whatever Porgan may think.


trissedai

Yes let's detox! No Plexus required, hun!! 😍😍


Whiteroses7252012

I think it’s an excellent Pride Month gift to ourselves.


BoopityGoopity

Can we do an Antibot and Zelph embargo too?


Significant_Shoe_17

This should mute antibot by default but I'd love to stop giving them and zelph attention


alexnotalexa10

It wouldn’t take long to catch up on a month’s worth of their nonsense and hold them accountable in July. Give us queer kids a Paul-free month for pride plz 🙏


Significant_Shoe_17

That's what I said. We can stop the embargo in time for the birth. Plus kristen from girl defined is due soon and kelly havens is hosting a ladies' retreat, so we'll have plenty to talk about!


CenterofChaos

I think it's a good idea. They seem to relish any negative reactions they get, not giving it to them would be a good option. 


Inevitable_Sweet_988

I’m in


AmberWaves80

As a queer person, I’m in.


[deleted]

I 100% agree. Honestly I think hate watching is 90% of the reason they still have a channel. Obviously they have a very vocal fanbase but I think they are just loud not big. I know a lot of us use yewtube, but I think us talking about them is drawing inadvertent hate attention to them. Even if all this does is save us a bit of headspace for a month and it might be worth it.


glittergoddess1002

Honestly as much as I love a good gossip session, I have been feeling this way lately. Maybe I’m healing, idk…but giving them more airtime gives them too much power over me. They have no authority. Why would I care what they say about my faith? The best course of action really is to just leave them be, I think.


uncontainedsun

can i just say, i love snark okay? but there are some people worth forgetting about. i used to read snark about 2-3 certain people and then one day (really the snark boards over there are completely off the deep end of weird, cruel, etc) it just didn’t seem worth paying attention to anymore. at all. so i unsubbed, unfollowed, and i literally only think about them when someone posts “god i hate [whoever] so much my blood boils!” and i think “wow, been there, glad i left that behind” and that’s it. it might take some weaning off at first but like, it’s really easy to just.. not.. j still survey random snark boards here and there of different people but some people aren’t even worth hating on lol


TriSarahTops3223

I’ve concluded after TNE debacle that Paul doesn’t do Christian content. He does white nationalist content. All their content could be crammed into a 30 minute segment with the usual white nationalist tropes: LGBTQ+ hate, anti-choice, race baiting, and misogynistic content. If it was about religion, Paul would have had more theological knowledge than scrolling on his phone reading singular verses with no context or deeper meaning than the words on his phone. 


bebearaware

Paulie is a Christofascist.


agurlhasnoshame

Also anyone who follows them on social media should unfollow. I don't understand why snarkers follow fundies, but I know some do. Those from the old sub might remember how fun it was to watch Jill's follower count plummet (before the mod ruined it for everyone)


neverdoubtedyou

Love it


AFundieSaysWhat

They're so exhausting. A break would be great.


Lydia--charming

They’re BEC. We can always find something to say. But since they seem to feed and thrive on the negativity they can glean from our criticism, I think we should starve them.


_palantir_

I’m all for it! Also, a friendly reminder to not follow any of these people or visit their profiles/posts. If you want to see their content, there are other ways to do it.


McGeeK28

✅️


MrsPancakesSister

👍🏽👍🏽


ClickClackTipTap

Everything I know about them comes from his sub, so if this sub stops talking about them, they will fall off my radar entirely. And that sounds lovely, to be honest.


tropicalfish91

Fantastic idea!


_bibliofille

Do it. F them.


FatDesdemona

YES!!!!! I LOVE THIS! Honestly, they're boring anyway.


SumoSizeIt

I'm more concerned about Boone at this point in the series, anyway.


nicunta

I haven't seen anything about him in a few days; how is he doing? I mean, not that we can really tell, but does he seem any more responsive?


CrystallineFrost

I am going to hope he is seeing a doctor and that is why we haven't seen anything and don't anyone ruin that for me.


Earlybp

I mean, they should have minor fundie status anyway. They aren’t well-known.


fool-of-a-took

And the watch TNE instead.


Shesgonedownhill

The idea of a Porgan free June sounds amazing.


CanThisBeEvery

I’m down. 🌈🏳️‍🌈🌈🏳️‍🌈🌈🏳️‍🌈


Disastrous_Fun_9433

This is a great idea!


Forsaken-Rock-635

Fantastic idea!


1nconsp1cuous

I’m cool with this.


RaspberryThis

👏


HistoricalEssay6605

👍🏻


dislikes_grackles

Yessss. In fact, I’d love one to institute a rotating monthly snark ban.


RazorCrab

Tbh, I skip a lot of the posts about them anyway unless it's pretty short. If we got rid of their tag completely I wouldn't miss it


catsolo03

Maybe we could also highlight queer affirming Christians and their content here?


SunOutside746

I’ve never seen what y’all see in them anyway. I can’t watch their videos because of Morgan’s giggles and hair tosses. Plus Paul is a know it all. Together they are just so boring. 


Big_Insurance_3601

May I also suggest extra pride flairs, glitter & flags be sprinkled all over every post in direct opposition to their dumbassery?! Let the good times ROLL!!!


shaantya

I’m in. I don’t really care who show up on this sub, I’m here to see what fundamentalists are doing and saying these days, could be them, could be anybody. And it’s less interesting of what they’re saying becomes that meta anyway. I don’t think we should stop altogether forever, because they would then have bullied *us* into giving them a free pass to be hateful shits without scrutiny, but there are so many other hateful shits we can focus on 💕


perttygood

Love this and can we also get any folks here who follow them to unfollow?!


celtic_thistle

Fuckin let's go. I'm tired of all the posts about their stupid video series and the drama they deliberately stir up.


Bayareaquestioner

I agree 110%. Embargo or completely ignore. 


harbourbarber

Aye


LBelle0101

Let’s do it! And definitely relegate them to “minor fundie” status


makama77

Nothing has ever made me love this sub as much as this post did ♥️


Significant_Shoe_17

I LOVE this idea for Pride Month. If they lose their shit over this, we can discuss that in July 😂


Intrepid_Advice4411

Good riddance. I'm ready for a break and it might do them some good to not farm content off of us for a month. (wishful thinking)


cellophane_angel

As the adage goes: “Talk good about me. Talk bad about me. But please, talk about me.” I feel like snark subs ultimately just bring more attention to idiots like them, which is exactly what they want. Attention.


VioletFoxx

Sorry, who? 😏


Affectionate-Car487

Yesss! Because I watched the TNE video of Tim and Sarah reacting to their Porgan vid, now You Tube is suggesting me Porgan shorts. 🤢 I work from home and watch YT vids while I’m working, and thought I had a pretty good fundie free algorithm til I got a couple Porgan jump scares. So I’m all about purging them from my life for a month. 🤣


PlanetOfThePancakes

This would make them so angry. I love it.


ccc2801

I’ve been saying this for a while so I wholeheartedly support this ban! 🏳️‍🌈


Remstersade

It’s going to be challenging for me to ignore someone I already don’t give two shits about, but I’m up for the challenge.


NiamhHA

This will bother them more than anything else (which is exactly why it's a great idea). Nothing will make them feel more wronged than a lack of attention.


JumpGlittering8120

I feel like this is about time, every shred of attention we give those two feeds into Paul's ego.
