Q-Dropped Posts Episode About Medical Neglect and Conversion Therapy

In this episode, Luan talks to us about his harrowing upbringing by a father who was so wrapped up in conspiracy theories and, later, QAnon that he neglected his children’s medical needs and forced our guest to go to conversion therapy after he came out as gay.


Trigger warnings: homophobia, child abuse, neglect, transphobia, and racism.
