This is such a wild disconnect, it's truly mind-blowing. Piker's reaction is pretty much what I'd expect. We all know how far gone these people are, that they live in this weird archaic unreality bubble. They didn't think this through, they sincerely thought this would be embarrassing for him. The right wing gerontocracy is so out of touch, its like they're from another planet
Embarrassing for him? I am an old, straight male who has no idea who this person was but when I came across the post on BlueSky this morning talking about it my first thought was "well fuck, I wish I looked like this".
I can only presume that they secretly want to fuck him but don't know how else to approach him. Dumb fucks.

yes, and yet so many voters
If he is controlled opposition then they are one step ahead.
