A satire site invented a sequel to Moana where the titular Disney character transitions to become a boy and conservatives did not get the joke.

I have a friend who is conservative. We have similar interests and get along fine, but we avoid talking politics. This doesn't surprise me at all. There's so much misinformation on the right. I've been pretty blown away by some of the dumb shit he believes. Conservative media has such a weak argument most of the time, they have to just make ridiculous stuff up to have anything resembling a sane position.
