    Just to be sure everyone gets it, this is a hoax. And it isn’t that funny anymore once you’ve read that the meme is based on a real fact, but it was gender swapped. Classic case of men in power being shitty people™️

      Why isn’t it that funny when it’s gender swapped? Are the standards somehow double?

      So it’s funny when a female pastor blows the men in her church, but it’s not funny when a male pastor does it?

      Sounds kinda homophobic, honestly…

        I think the poster described it poorly.

        The way the “funny” version describes it is a woman pastor giving bjs to parishioners - who are assumed in the joke to be willing participants - and later claiming it was part of a religous rite when people found out.

        The real 2019 New Jersey case was about a preacher actually telling impressionable men they had demons in them and tricking them into letting him give them blowjobs.

        The joke is problematic, but the real case is clearly sexual assault.
