A former Navy SEAL appears to be a threat to Harris voters

Former Navy SEAL involved in an operation to kill an al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden appeared to threaten young voters with sexual abuse on Sunday for voting for vice president Kamala Harris.

Robert J. O’Neillwho identified himself as the man who shot bin Laden, responded to the liberal influencer’s tweet Harry Sisson. Shortly after the vote, Sisson posted a photo of himself and four other young men.

“We are Generation Z voters and we all PROUDLY voted for Kamala Harris!” Sisson wrote. “Real men support Harris!”

On Sunday evening, O’Neill responded to the tweet by claiming that they were not men, before bizarrely suggesting that he would have some sexual contact with them.

“You are not men. You guys are guys,” O’Neill wrote. “If there was no social media, you would be my concubines.”

Merriam-Webster defines a concubine as “a woman with whom a man lives together without being married” and “a woman of recognized social status in a household lower than that of the wife.” In short, O’Neill seemed to suggest that the young men would be his lovers.

It’s unclear whether O’Neill intended to use that word specifically, but he doubled down on his statement in response to the outrage over the tweet.

Some online users have attempted to add a community note to the tweet. As you can see in the screenshot, the word O’Neill may have been looking for is “catamite” – an ancient Greek term referring to a young boy in a relationship with an older man.
