Lol she didn't even mention Trump! I guess his name is synonymous with the word pediphile now.

[–] daychilde@lemmy.world 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

It's also not a threat to suggest what punishment should be meted out for a crime.

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Exactly. Donald J Trump, Presidential of the United States, deserves to be tried in a court of law, found guilty, and hung by the neck until dead for his illegal extrajudicial murder of over a hundred people on the waters of the Caribbean, among the numerous capital offenses he has committed.

Pretending this was real and that she even named Trump, it wouldn't be a threat because it's stating he deserves a legally applied punishment which would require a trial and sentencing.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 7 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Reddit admins certainly don't see it that way.

[–] daychilde@lemmy.world 7 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Reddit admins can piss off. I'm currently on a seven-day ban because I dared suggest in terms that weren't quite indirect enough that oligarchs in the US should be dealt with. I didn't even suggest how&[guillotines if you must know], just that something should be done.

Two more such bans and I'll have to create another new account and get my two subreddits to re-mod me.

It's such bullshit.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 5 points 3 hours ago

Yeah, I got permabanned for saying that child molesters should be executed. Fuck em. Reddit is a shithole anyway.

[–] texture@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

i got perma banned for no reason

Oh, look! Another disingenuous, confidence gaming piece of shit has entered Florida's 20th race. Fascism about to become real and much more dangerous and we have amoral, shithole Florida districts all trying to play "Who can elect the biggest grifter?!?"

What's wrong with Manley?

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 9 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

ITT: posters that have never heard of irony.

(metallurgy really is a lost art)

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

I like iron.

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 96 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

So story time.

Back near the 2016 election, with the news covering Clinton Vs. Trump, a douchebag I worked with... a former(?) military guy... often talked about how he and a few military buddies of his had stockpiles of guns and ammo and he knew folks in the military yet. And would say something to the effect "if she wins, well sometimes things happen to planes" implying he or one of his military buddies was going to assassinate Clinton if she won. I told a military friend of mine who said, crap like that gets said all the time an nothing is ever done about it.

Fun fact, said douchebag got arrested by the police for soliciting what he thought was a minor. Eat shit Phil.

[–] halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 48 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

It's always the ones you most suspect.

[–] bhamlin@lemmy.world 9 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Sometimes, it's the ones you medium suspect.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Every few years someone from my job gets arrested for something to do with kids and yeah I'm never really that surprised to hear about it.

IT for a fairly large corporation. Seems to attract more weirdos than other fields I've worked in. Usually benign weirdos but sometimes not.

[–] Aneb@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I was gonna guess priest but IT professionals would know how to solicit kids for nudes in a "private" chat

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 116 points 20 hours ago (4 children)

His statement straight up confirms he thinks the president is a pedophile. I wonder if he realizes.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

It's a facetious, ironic reply from someone opposing OP.

[–] arcterus@piefed.blahaj.zone 93 points 19 hours ago (3 children)

He's a democrat (looked it up to make sure), so I'm pretty sure that was intentional.

[–] thenextguy@lemmy.world 50 points 18 hours ago

And she’s a republican.

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

So, out of context (time) given the missing dates? I’d read it as Democrat damning a pedo and a Repub yelling about it because it’s Trump.

I like the true version better. How old is the first tweet?

[–] arcterus@piefed.blahaj.zone 7 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

Anna Paulina Luna is a (usually nuts, as is now standard) Republican, so it's def about something other than Trump.

Her tweet is from like Feb 13th apparently. Maybe she was referring to Ghislaine Maxwell wanting clemency in exchange for providing info? Not really sure tbh.

[–] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 10 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

He is wearing a blue tie in his profile picture.

[–] Velypso@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Lmao, many people where fucking blue ties in their profile pictures.

[–] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 1 points 8 hours ago

But that's the rule for American politicians.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 39 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Yes, he realised that. He’s UNO Reversed her tweet.

[–] tpyo@lemmy.world 17 points 20 hours ago (3 children)

It's not the gotcha he thinks it is, that's for sure

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

I'm pretty sure it's exactly the gotcha he thinks it is.

[–] rainwall@piefed.social 65 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

I think this a gotcha aimed at the GOP, as the congresswoman is a shitty Florida republican.

Just a few days back, Ilhan Omar replied back to Trump insulting her and somalia with the following:

"The leader of the Pedophile Protection Party is trying to deflect attention from his name being all over the Epstein files. At least in Somalia they execute pedophiles not elect them."

The right wing flipped its shit as usual and tried to say she was threatening the presidents life. I think Elijah is just turning that dumb bullshit around here.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 8 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Wait. That wasn’t sarcastic?

That’s some fucked up shit.

[–] thenextguy@lemmy.world 23 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, it was sarcastic. He’s a democrat, she’s a republican.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago

oh. good to know my sarcasm meter still works sometimes.

[–] DontRedditMyLemmy@lemmy.world 14 points 16 hours ago

Who is she even talking about? Isn't she trying to protect pedophiles?

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 7 points 15 hours ago

34 felonies so far.

[–] Gnugit@aussie.zone 25 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

I feel like the irony of this timeline is going to kill me soon and my autopsy will show it as natural causes.
