me when im learning numbers for the first time 🀝 megyn kelly downplaying paedophilia

"theres a big difference between 15 and 5"

[–] JoshsJunkDrawer@lemmy.ml 28 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There's no going back. We all know that, right? This is the new normal. This is life forever more now.

[–] Wheaties@hexbear.net 30 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We can totally go back. 20 years ago, this was normal. Hell, 20 years ago there was a public countdown timer for when Emma Watson turned 18. And relatively recently, that kind of thing gets cited as an example of how crazy attitudes were in the very recent past.

Some people are trying to make it normal again. They're attempting to recreate the past. Re-enacting it. Reactionaries. I personally don't think they're gonna succeed... but, even if they do, well, the past became the present. Sensibilities that changed for the worse can also change for the better again. After all, that's what happened the first time round.

How are y’all liking hell?

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My theory proving correct we all died in 2012 and forgot about it and now we exist in hell.

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 13 points 1 day ago

The "Shoot Your Local Pedophile" people defending child sex trafficking

I wish I could say I were surprised, but i'm really not

[–] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 60 points 1 day ago (3 children)

The "I will kill a teenage boy if he touches my daughter" crowd real cool with 40 year old men touching their daughters

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 50 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

That daughter is for me and my friends, not some upstart who doesn't even have a mortgage grillman

Pro tip: The "shoot your local pedo" and Tiktok "pedo hunters" are all actually pedophiles themselves most of the time.

Trump could literally come out tomorrow and do a presser with "Jailbait" by his buddy Ted Nugent playing in the background and the chuds would be like "there's my president!" freedom-and-democracy

barely legal

15 year olds

The lowest age of consent in the US is 16. It's 18 in Florida where most of his non-island crimes happened, 17 in NY.

Also at least one of his victims was 12.

Megyn R Kelly thats-why-im-confused

[–] ephemeral@hexbear.net 104 points 1 day ago (2 children)

here it is, the conservative turn to "Epstein did nothing wrong" and "actually it's ephebophilia". finally the right is being honest about the fact that they just straight up support pedophilia and think child abuse is good actually. after all these are the kinds of people who want to retvrn to ancient Rome

into the barely legal type

liked 15 year old girls

so... not legal. and you know what else is illegal? human trafficking. in fact that's illegal even if the victims were adults! (which, to reiterate, they were not)

and to my knowledge Epstein had victims as young as 12

[–] thefunkycomitatus@hexbear.net 52 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He had actual child porn as well. He did not stop at 12. Their next argument will be that okay it was children but that's actually trad if you look at the 1800s.

These people learned nothing from Kirk and "I'm going to say ludicrous shit in public" is only going to bring more hilarious results.

Faster than I thought, I was saying we were still 2 weeks out from the "actually it's ephebophilia you SJW" line from mainstream republicans. They must be posting on 4chan for advice from their base about all this.

Hilarious (agony-shivering) that the "technically it's not pedophilia" gang never seems to conclude that it's still wrong lmao.

15 isn't even barely not legal lmfao what the FUCK how do you just say this out loud!

[–] 3rdWorldCommieCat@hexbear.net 89 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Anybody under 21 is a child and if they even stand next to a queer they'll be corrupted and traumatized but somehow as soon as you hit puberty at like 12 as long as the predator is a straight white republican male its totes fine and not pedophilia in any way! God I hope they all die and go to hell.

[–] CTHlurker@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

There is a fascinating thing that happens with chuds where anytime one of them get caught doing/saying stupid shit, they all become therapists. I saw the same thing with a rich-guy lawyer I worked opposite who claimed that the failson he represented couldn't possibly have known better, because he was just a 25 year old little kid. When I was arguing that case, I was 24, which is presumably why the failkid got convicted.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 51 points 1 day ago (1 children)

34 year old hanging out in a Nazi Republican group chat is just a wittle boy who didn't know any better.

Everything is a bit loopy no? We got chuds who want child brides and we got liberals like "a relationship between a 40 year old and a 35 year old is assault", idk which fuckin' end is up with these people.

What is the over/under on Karoline Leavitt describing the difference between pedophilia and ephebophilia by the end of Nov?

[–] Llituro@hexbear.net 44 points 1 day ago

I feel like they'll start by claiming that it's "statutory" and not the trafficking and abuse that it was. Ephebophilia is too big a word for the audience they need to convince to want to learn.

There is not a difference in the eyes of anyone that thinks fucking children is not acceptable at any age.

I know somebody very close to this case....Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile...barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls

I didn't know Alan Dershowitz and Megyn Kelly were friends

[–] ClassIsOver@hexbear.net 35 points 1 day ago (1 children)

15 is not on the right side of "barely legal", and it's weird that they don't know that. If they had consciences, they wouldn't be able to sleep at night knowing they're putting that out into the world.

I'm surprised this kind of thing didn't happen sooner. Right wing media narratives about Trump and Epstein have had to make more and more compromises the more obvious it became the two were very close. At first it was something like "Everyone knew Epstein. The Clintons knew him too!"

Then it was something like "Ok Trump and Epstein were close but Trump didn't know about the pedo stuff." Then it was "ok Trump knew about it but that's why he didn't talk to Epstein after 2003." I guess now we're at a point where they have to argue that it wasn't actually pedophilia.

if she had a 15 year old daughter maybe she would be able to have empathy, like how she did a 180 on maternity leave after she benefitted from it

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

She has a 14-year-old daughter.

[–] CommCat@hexbear.net 43 points 1 day ago (1 children)

one of the Right's argument against LGBTQ acceptance is that it was a sliding slope that would lead to acceptance of paedophilia and eventually to zoophillia. Well here we are, and the Right, to protect their orange leader, is saying that sex with children is ok, as long as they aren't babies....ugh

Tomorrow: there's a big difference between 12 and 5

Next week: there's a big difference between 8 and 5

Week after that: there's a big difference between 5 and 3

Oh I see. It's more of a common man's pedophilia like American Beauty. It's not really an elitist pedophilia like True Detective.
