@elonmusk Oh bullshit

Let's bring attention to enablers, who do nothing, when people are injured by religious leaders. https://t.co/8XFazPS8tQ

@ElisabethIngram Tragic and true mic drop

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

@elonmusk No, kindness, empathy, and care for the least of these will always be around- no matter how much you hate them.

What happens when pastors dismiss adult clergy sexual abuse (ACSA) as merely an “affair”—and obscure devastating realities of abuse & coercion?

In this talk. Dr David Pooler (@DKPooler) dismantles the myth that ACSA is a matter of consensual relationship.

The SBC's sexual abuse crisis is interwoven with its misogyny. That's a reality that Beth Allison Barr & Savannah Locke illuminate in ALL THE BURIED WOMEN.

In episode 4, I join the conversation, with @RobertDownen_ @dkpooler & more. #ThisistheSBC

@MikeWingerii Do what you need to do. Exposure of abuse or corruption is necessary.

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

@LenaArbring @reachjulieroys Absolutely!!

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

@andrewbullard15 @reachjulieroys Just the fact that there are so many leaders harming people is the evidence. I have heard predators report how easy it is to remain the churches- just anecdotes- no study that I’ve seen.

Bishop Budde is actually the vulnerable one (who could be punished in multiple ways for speaking up for vulnerable people).

@libsoftiktok Come on!! Give me a break.

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

@RandPaul No it shows the vitriol that you and Donald Trump and others heaped on man for no reason. He was just trying to do his job and enhance the health of people. Biden is just trying to protect him from unjust future treatment.

@tracesoffaith Thinking about leaving

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

@TovRose You are correct, it is my error on the overstatement about conviction. The point remains that criminal liability is about the jury believing he sexually assaulted her. Which is my point.

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

If you voted for Trump, please be aware that for any adult clergy sexual abuse survivor, your vote may have now made you unsafe for them. Trump was convicted by a jury of his peers of sexual assault and a jury awarded the victim money. Please ponder this sobering reality. #ACSA

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

@scottabe This really isn’t about me- I’m simply supporting survivors I know who feel upset about those who supported Trump for the reasons I mentioned above- it’s that simple. I’m happy for you that you are unaffected.

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

@scottabe -I don’t think so- you are probably an exception then- clearly we aren’t hearing the same people

[David K Pooler, Ph.D, LCSW-S @dkpooler]

@ElisabethIngram Yes we can!!
