I wonder how a person wakes up one day and says to him/herself: i want to kidnap children when i grow up

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 6 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

To be fair, i did that, but i was aiming for a witchy mysterious throw-them-in-the-oven sorta way, and dropped that aspiration just about the second i learned the only people who kidnap children nowadays are pedophiles.

It's just not the right cultural moment for reclaiming that.

Please feel free to prove there's a single ice agent that's not a pedophile. Edit: then maybe i can start on my childhood dream of being a terrible witch who throws kids in my oven and/or cauldron.

i wouldn't go so far as to say theyre ALL pedophiles but theres probably a strong correlation between ice agents and people who disagree with the concept of consent

Do you have any proof though?

I think it's more about following your passion and just one day finding yourself behind the steering wheel.
