The Blaze’s Allie Beth Stuckey advises viewers to use alternative terms to label LGBTQ people as “groomers” online

Special Programs LGBTQ

Published 08/02/22 3:53 PM EDT

On her Relatable podcast, TheBlaze’s Allie Beth Stuckey is advising her viewers to use alternative terms on social media to label LGBTQ people as “groomers.” 

The term “groomer” is used to attack LGBTQ people and is part of the right-wing playbook meant to label LGBTQ people as pedophiles. Twitter recently confirmed that the term violates its rules against hateful conduct. 

During her August 1 episode, Stuckey suggested that users “get around the ban” by using alternative terms and acronyms so it’s “harder for it to be censored.” Much like the term that they’re meant to duplicate, Stuckey’s workaround labels are hateful and bigoted.

ALLIE BETH STUCKEY (HOST): Some options that you guys came up with instead of groomer. Pronoun predator, rainbow recruiter, that's a good one. Kid creepers. Someone said you should just say 'where you take your dog to get a haircut.' That's a little wordy, but I get what you're going for. And then we've got some acronyms that you guys came up with. PAG, predatory adult groomers. PERV, this is clever, P.E.R.V., People eager to remove virtue. LOL. Then someone came up with A four. Adults after adolescent affirmation.
