Dolly Parton:
• Openly pro-BLM
• Openly pro-LGBTQ
• Openly pro-literacy
• Openly pro-science
• Openly pro-women’s rights
• Openly and proudly Christian
And nobody could ever constrain or suppress her into silence.
ONE OF A KIND. TOP OF THE LINE.
Ah, yes, Dolly Parton, famously supportive of trans people, and Johnny Cash, whose song "A Boy Named Sue" famously satirized toxic masculinity.

Dolly Parton made the best chicken and dumplings I ever ate. On lunch break she would knock on my trailer door with melt-in-your-mouth dumplings, biscuits, gravy, green beans.Every day it was a southern feast. I had never seen an actor actually use the cooking facilities in their trailer before but she had it all going on. I still have Dolly’s Tupperware…
If you think Dolly’s burning in hell because she didn’t condemn gay people, lemme just lay a lil truth bomb on ya.
You know who else never condemned gay people?
Jesus.
Not once. Not ever. Not one syllable, in all of the gospels.

Pete Hegseth is a failure.
