A fascinating output of Christian weirdness is pluggedinonline, a web site that reviews all sorts of media to tell parents whether it is "safe" to watch.

I just learned that they now review youtube channels as well, which you can browse in case you wanted to make sure you can watch Epic Rap Battles of History and still be a Good Christian.

I am devastated to find they haven't reviewed any of Kendrick's diss tracks yet, but I can take solace in the fact that they have reviewed Palworld

Among the many "Content Concerns" for Epic Rap Battles of History, pluggedinonline mentions that "there are also some violent references, including some comments Hitler makes while rapping against Darth Vader."

Under "Sexual Content" for the Spy x Family movie currently in theatres, they mention that "Loid, a master of disguises, dresses up as a woman in order to infiltrate a palace; he briefly flirts with a man to sell the bit." A friendly reminder that Christians view cross-dressers who are simply existing as enacting sexual deviants.

In a review for a recent Beyonce theatrical movie (which I did not know existed), they mention that "We hear nearly 120 profanities, including almost 50 f-words (many paired with “mother”), as well as a dozen or so s-words, more than 30 uses of “b—h,” and uses of God’s name in vain, the n-word, “d–n,” “a–,” “d–k,” “p–sy,” “balls”, ...".

It's always been hilarious to me when they list some precise number of profanities for a movie. You realize that someone was sitting in the theatre with a notepad, keeping a tally for each variety of curse word

You know that somewhere in the pluggedinonline offices, this is a filing cabinet just full of curse word tallies that look this:
