I don’t think the guy should be ridiculed or kink-shamed for his fetish, which at a surface level seems fairly non-harmful. I think he should be ridiculed and shamed for standing by Kristi Noem.

    With degradation fetishes, there typically still is a consent contract involved of sorts. There’s typically a space of consent where the kink lifestyle is practiced, and when you exit the space in which that dynamic is agreed upon, you’re allowed to return to the vanilla society status quo.

      I’m just talking about how other members of the subculture might feel when they see people mocking this one high profile guy for his participation in it. They might not mind.
