If you have been following the controversial Duggar family for a while now, then you know that the family is very conservative in many of their views. For example, Derick Dillard was actually fired from the family’s TLC Reality Television Series “Counting On” after he made some transphobic remarks about Jazz Jennings online. Another example of the Duggar family in controversy is when Dillard decided to poke fun at feminists online and their views on controversial issues like abortions. Well, the family is now under fire again, as they recently posted on their social media about Martin Luther King Jr.
day.
Why are some fans angry that the Duggar family is celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day?
As mentioned above, some Duggar fans are furious with the fact that this controversial family is celebrating the special day that is known as Marin Luther King Jr. Day. The main reason that they are angry is that Martin Luther King Jr. spoke about equal rights for anyone no matter your skin tone or your cultural beliefs. From watching the family on the television show “Counting On” and following them on so Gcial media, it is obvious that they aren’t for the equal rights of everyone. This is evident through the Duggar family member Derick Dillard's controversial tweets that he put out about being transgender.
Here is a snippet of what he said about being transgender online: “'Transgender' is a myth. Gender is not fluid; it's ordained by God." I have actually attached the full tweet below so you can see with your own eyes what this controversial man had to say about a person being transgender.
What an oxymoron... a "reality" show which follows a non-reality. "Transgender" is a myth. Gender is not fluid; it's ordained by God. https://t.co/YxzH5o5Ujx

What else are the Duggar family up to these days?
The Duggar family has been very busy over the last couple of weeks. For instance, we have only started a brand new year, and a Duggar family member has just announced that they are pregnant.
This family member would be Jinger Duggar as her and her husband, Jeremy Vuolo, are expecting a baby later in the year. Jinger is not the only family member that is expecting a baby as both her sister Joy-Anna and her sister-in-law Kendra are pregnant as well. It is worth mentioning that Kendra’s husband Joseph was actually in trouble online with fans as they think that he hardly lets her speak at all. If you want to keep up with this family, you can follow them on their social media accounts, and you can also watch them on their rather popular TLC reality television series “Counting On.”
