“Turning Point USA (TPUSA), the right-wing youth student organization led by Charlie Kirk, found itself in an unusual controversy Friday night after ‘conservative pornstar’ Brandi Love was allowed into a Florida conference and welcomed as an ‘Adult VIP,’ sparking backlash.”

Turning Point USA is a nonprofit organization that advocates for conservative values on high school, college, and university campuses. The founder of TPUSA, Charlie Kirk, is a vehement defender and supporter of Donald Trump, which makes him and his organization persona non grata in establishment Republican circles.
TPUSA events often feature controversial right-wing speakers including white nationalists, so I’m not surprised that adult entertainer Brandi Love was allowed into their conference and welcomed as an “Adult VIP.”
A porn star is a perfect guest for a political event that draws white nationalists, QAnon conspiracy theorists and evangelical Christians, because these groups love watching porn on the down low. Residents of red states in the Bible Belt are the biggest consumers of pornography, but these hypocrites hit the roof when they found out that Love was a guest. Shortly thereafter, Love was banned from the gathering.
Love would be well-advised to consider changing her allegiance to the Democratic Party. Democrats are less hypocritical than Republicans, and they will either freely admit to watching and enjoying pornography or they will be against it on the grounds that it objectifies women, reduces them to body parts, and depicts them as playthings for men to violently abuse.
