Tippy

Thank you for telling me my lived experience of sexual abuse is ridiculous and again reiterating that you think I don't understand SA, which means my viewpoint is wrong. Very appreciative of that. You should definitely take pride that you "won" an argument on the internet in that way.

1. I never claimed all people with mental illness are criminals or rapists and you know I did not.

2. I never claimed that pedophilia isn't a legimate mental illness.

3. I never disagreed that it requires professional treatment and monitoring, and in fact advocated for that treatment multiple times as that user continued to double down on pedophilia being fine as long as its not acted on.

4. Pedophilia is not a fetish, nor is it in any way similar to a fetish, and you are well aware of that. Trying to relate it to one is concerning and you might want to reconsider using that as a debate point

Clearly you believe I have wrongthink and don't understand SA. I guess I just didn't internalize my own experienced abuse correctly enough for you. I'll make sure I more carefully consider the position of abusers and their advocates in the future before I call them out so I don't upset them, it really is inappropriate of me to be disgusted by sexual abuse and the normalization of it, you're right.

If someone rapes a child they are a fucking pedophile, and if someone fantasizes about sex with children they are fantasizing about fucking rape.

These semantic games you want to keep playing make it abundantly clear to me that you have a serious problem and are desperately trying to justify to yourself that you don't. Nothing you can say to me will change that.

You need to go get professional treatment before your thoughts turn into actions, because you are sick.

It just "irritates" you when people talk about it because it's "not illegal"

Fuck. Off.

My advice would be to stop trying to talk your way around pedophilia being problematic, because it is and it does cause harm regardless of your personal feelings on it. Or continue and get your account nuked. That honestly would be best for everyone.

Again, if you need help, seek it out before there are more victims.

Edit: Posting a screenshot of their original comment in case they try to edit what they said and make me look like the one with a problem here

It was not hostile, you just don't want to read it because you know you're rightfully being called out for saying some fucked up shit.

As a victim of SA myself, my advice would be to just fucking stop trying to normalize it and move on, go get your head back on straight.

In the United States, the country relevant to this topic and the aggressors and victims involved, this is called Statutory Rape. It is a crime.

I''m not sure why exactly you chose me to direct this to, but it seems dangerously close to you being upset and defensive that I used the term pedophile negatively.

If something I said offended you, seek help immediately before you harm someone.

This post is about teenage girls (at the oldest) being raped by adult men and a vile woman spouting propaganda to protect them, and you're in here talking about age of consent and sleeping with someone in your age range.

If I had to guess you aren't actually defending pedophilia, you just might need to take a massive step back and realize what you posted was weird as shit in context. The difference between your situation and that of the epstein victims was violence, exploitation and sexual abuse. Though even lacking that, I don't believe teenagers can truly consent to sex with adults regardless of what the law says. There are power dynamics in play that are unhealthy no matter how its spun.

I'm saying this as someone just scrolling through with no stake in your argument with others in this thread, just thought you should probably get some perspective.

We already know why. They're cowards and collaborators who think they'll get to sleep at the foot of the bed if they obey and throw the rest of us to the wolves. They think they're noble and pious by sticking to the middle of the road, better than all of us. Who needs messy ethics and functional moral compasses when you can just claim you're above all the "petty squabbling".

Fascists only protect their own. Centrists are useful idiots and tools for the extreme right and always have been. They think they're safe by staying "neutral". What they refuse to understand is that they are on the purge lists like everyone else, they just aren't as high up in priority as the rest of us.

Sickens me that people are upvoting this and think this way. Oh won't someone think of the poor fascists. They need to provide for their families, so its okay for them to terrorize and kill indiscriminately.

These are not golden-hearted dimwits who just need to see the light. This is not a Disney movie with a villain redemption plot. These are fascists, do you understand what that means? They take pleasure in what they do because they think they are purging mutants and heathens for the greater good. The paychecks are a bonus. They are not using them to provide for their beaten children and raped spouses, they are using them to buy bigger guns to slaughter more "others"

You want to stay on the fence about fascism, go ahead. I can't stop you, I'm just text on the internet. But you are doing tangible harm to real people in this world by trying to white wash what is happening and giving a pass to the people making it happen.

Buddy I think the French will be okay, but thanks for the extra laugh seriously
