Pretty much everything the Duggars represent is loathsome to me.

* The Patriarchal family where women are subjugated and quiet, hands neatly folded, always awaiting the husband's word. The idea that the men in the family can do anything they want with their lives but that the women must stay at home, make babies, and keep house.

* The "quiver full" bullshit where "God blesses the family with children" when it really feels to me like ignorance and willful disregard of birth control (and that is fine if that is what people want to do but having 20-30 kids feels really privileged to me on the level they are doing it)

* The idea that the older children are heavily responsible for caring for and raising the younger children (especially the girls, acting in pseudo-"Mom" rolls to the younger children"

* The ignorance i.e. Homophobia in the name of "Well, the Bible says…"

* The audacity to actively fight against an equality act as if you are doing people a favor by discriminating against LGBT folks while muttering "But I'm protecting your children because what if a MAAANNNNNNNN dressed as a Woman goes in the bathroom"

* Implying that all Trans people are pedophiles.

* Basically existing.

Needless to say, I don't find much at all redeemable about that entire family.
