We're unlocking this bonus episode from a few months ago because I (Jake) think it's relevant to the recent news about OnlyFans kicking sex workers off its platform, since it appears that was the work of some of the evangelical organizations that I read about and discussed in this episode. I also think it's a good ep and would like y'all to hear it. Here are the original show notes: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In response to the media silence on the evangelical anti-sex aspect of the Atlanta spa shootings, I did a little research into what Christian dark money organizations are up to these days and found out some pretty weird shit. In the process I found a Netflix documentary that one of these groups secretly produced and we watched it. If you'd like to watch and play along it's called Liberated: The New Sexual Revolution and it's pretty weird. Also spoiler alert if you haven't seen Spring Breakers we talk about its ending.
