Murdered by Words

What an awful day to be literate.

🤮

Huh, se he's one of the reason Courtney Love is that way that she is.

They are the party of "every allegation is an admission".

The only other musician that's firmly in their camp is Kid Rock and I wouldn't wish that fate on anyone

My shit pants guy

Conservatives equate all of LGBTQ+ with pedophiles though. That's why they use the phrase "grooming children" to describe talking about anything even remotely related to it, including the mere existence of it.

Like I never heard about him before this

You're lucky. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

Well this is certainly a thing that someone typed once. I’d counter that it’s not simply that people are innocently attracted to children and therefore deserve sympathy. I’d say there’s more involved in that attraction. You can’t reasonably engage in any romantic or sexual abuse encounter with a child without there being a totally lopsided power dynamic and a high degree of exploitation. I’d argue that for all such people this is what draws them to it. Within that context it’s not some innocent ‘miswiring’ of the brain but instead an individual that is completely unhealthy and mentally unwell that is entertaining the idea of grooming some child. That’s the part they are after.

I know there’s a movement to try and see pedophiles as anything but what they are and you can sit and have thought experiments about ‘the ones that act vs those that don’t’ but at the end of the day you are left with a deeply unwell individual that desperately needs inpatient psychiatric treatment, psychiatric medication, extensive counseling, and total separation from any children.

I have a sneaking feeling that I'll need some popcorn when looking at replies to this comment. I'll be back later

I respect people who [...] manage to control themselves

That's such a weird thing to say though.

Imagine you are in love with someone but they are not interested. Do you take pride in the fact you didn't rape/groom them because you "managed to control yourself"?

We're not animals. Controlling your sexual desires should be trivial for any decent human being.

okay but ted nugent doesnt control himself

Oof. I was in the car today and Rick James's 17 came on and I felt dirty just listening to it.

A little girl came up to me, acting young and shy

A look of curiosity was flashing in her eyes

She had seen my face before and thought she knew me well

So I said "Shall we talk some more, you'll come to my hotel"

She was only seventeen, seventeen

But she was sexy

I occasionally see someone cite the term "minor attracted person" in the wild, which IIRC was invented in a 4chan thread some years back.

Have you ever had an IQ test or similar? You sometimes get questions like “A car is to transport, what a fork is to ___” with the answer being “cutlery”. It’s not that transport/cutlery or cars/forks have anything in common, it’s about their relationship to the group.

So in the post it’s saying that “if you think paedophilla is just a type of sexuality, then murdering someone and burying their body is just a type of gardening”. It’s not exactly a flawless comparison, but that’s what they were going for.
