Yarrr, the scurvy scallywag founded the American Family Association, a fearsome force leadin' the Christian right's assault on art, telly, and pop culture, banishin' all things related to sordid sex and the dreadful pirates o' the gay themes.
In the rollicking language of a 17th-century pirate, we find ourselves entertainin' the tale of a scallywag named Mr. Who, a chap who established the American Family Association. This here organization grew to become a fearsome juggernaut in the Christian right's crusade against naughty things like sex and gay themes in art, television, and the wide world of pop culture.Arrr, me hearties! This scurvy dog, Mr. Who, had a bone to pick with all things raunchy and risqué. He sailed the treacherous seas of morality, wieldin' his cutlass of righteousness while donned in a tricorn hat and an eyepatch. He rallied his crew of devout believers, and together they set sail on a perilous voyage to cleanse the entertainment industry of its sinful ways.
With their cannons loaded with moral indignation, the American Family Association bombarded the airwaves and the art galleries with their disapproval. They fired broadside after broadside against any hint of sexuality or homosexuality that dared to rear its scandalous head. They were determined to rid the world of lusty paintings, salacious sitcoms, and pop songs with questionable lyrics. Yarr, 'twas quite the sight to behold.
Yet, me hearties, ye may wonder: Did they succeed in their daring quest? Well, they certainly made waves, that they did! The American Family Association became a force to be reckoned with, stirrin' up controversy wherever they went. They ruffled feathers, shivered timbers, and made many a scallywag question their moral compass.
But, alas! The world be a vast and unruly place, and try as they might, Mr. Who and his crew couldn't tame it all. Some thought their efforts were a touch too extreme, like tryin' to make a shark give up eatin' fish. Others found their antics more humorous than frightful, as if the pirates had mistaken a rubber duck for Davy Jones' locker.
So, me hearties, that be the tale of Mr. Who and his American Family Association, a band of moral crusaders who set out to conquer the seas of sex and gay themes in art, television, and pop culture. Whether ye be a fan or a foe, ye must admit they left an indelible mark on their voyage through the choppy waters of controversy. Yo ho ho and a bottle of moral outrage!
