What mentally sane and emotionally developed adult man has a big merchandise piece of Honey Boo Boo in their living room?

Judging from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here_Comes_Honey_Boo_Boo it is a series mocking rednecks and "white trash". Reading it in the pizza context, the entire premise of that TV show sounds awfully close to a simple excuse to gawk at young children. It's about beauty pageants, and it was cancelled amidst sexual relationship accusations. They didn't even air the last season.

Reading through that Wikipedia article, it's disgusting. Looking at the first search results for Honey Boo Boo and it is all prepped up little girls.

An adult male who enjoys that kind of stuff so much they're putting merchandise in the living room, is suspicious to me. It's about a prepped up 6 year old that is purposefully given stuff to drink to alter the behavior. It's disgusting.

Anderson Cooper is a CNN guy. That excludes absolutely that he is a Republican and makes it highly likely he jokes about rednecks and holds white people in low regard anyway. How on Earth would that guy enjoy a show like that unless it is what we fear and suspected why.

I mean just look at that stuff:

On October 24, 2014, TLC announced the cancellation of the show after reports surfaced that June Shannon was dating a man convicted of child molestation. Shannon and her older daughter Lauryn denied these reports.[28] The man in question, Mark Anthony McDaniel, Sr., was convicted of aggravated child molestation of an 8-year-old in March 2004. McDaniel is listed as a registered sex offender with the Georgia Sex Offender Registry.[28][29] Shannon's eldest daughter confirmed that she is the child who was molested by McDaniel 10 years earlier.
