Americans don't differentiate between a pedophile and a child rapist.
There's also a good chance that the owner of that vehicle has a bunch of CP on his computer.
It's almost as though a political ideology based on rigid hierarchy and inferior "others", who should exist to respect and serve their "betters" primes people for dehumanising and horrifically exploiting people, while a political ideology grounded in respect, equality and freedom views children as people rather than sex objects.
The pedocon theory holds water, and I don't see this lunatic gunning down good friend of Epstein and convicted rapist Donald Trump.
Honestly it seems like the actual amount of pedophiles available to murder massively outstrips the demand of pedophiles to murder, and the end result is that people just expand the definition to the point where it's becoming meaningless.
Over the past few years, I've seen pedophilia used in the following contexts. The list gets more ridiculous as you go down:
Middle aged men "dating" adult teenage sex workers
Middle aged men "dating" adult sex workers in their early 20s
18 year olds meeting up with 15 year olds they met online
A 17 year old discord mod talking with a 14 year old how they're attracted to each other, but the age difference might make it unethical
18 year olds dating 16 year olds
Drag Queens having story hours at the library
Men in their early thirties dating women in their early 20s.
Men in their mid thirties dating women in their mid to late twenties
Queer people in general
It feels like this "kill a pedo" routine is just gonna be used by people to go after regular people by assholes looking for blood.
Yeah, if you're calling for a group of people to be killed, regardless of what that group is or claims to do, there should probably be some sort of police investigation on you. It could be that you've correctly identified a dangerous demographic, but you're probably just a violent, hateful prick.
Yeah, I have issues with predation on children as all decent people do, but there’s an intense bloodthirst that people like to use pedophiles to justify. And beyond the fact that they keep expanding their targets to non-pedophiles, they also just have a level of blood lust I’m uncomfortable with
Projection or not, that's just such a weird thing to do. I once met a girl who had a swastika tattoo that was crossed through. I mean i get it, but you still got a swastika tattoo.
Society always needs some group to bogeyman such that animalistic aggression and hatred can be levied against them without any consequence. We say we're a civilized society, but I dare you to find someone who would be willing to say "I think people who are sexually attracted to children and haven't offended are not necessarily evil monsters, and they need support" without a crowd throwing rocks at them.
Prison should be a place for rehabilitation, with the goal of returning them to society better than when they entered. But prison, at least in the US, is more a place to lock away and punish undesirables. I'm 100% against the death penalty and would prefer to spend our tax dollars trying to rehabilitate even those we deem "unredeemable," they'll be locked up anyway, we might as well give them a realistic shot of becoming positive members of society.
These type of people always make me creeped out. Maybe they just hate pedophiles to an extreme degree, but it always strikes me as a "doth protest too much" kind of thing. It always seems like someone trying to externally hate as cover for something internal to themselves.
