Edge case which is acceptable :

A systemic pedophile who went to pedo Island owned by his best friend is evading justice by literally being the one who appoints judges.

That is a reasonable case for lynching

As opposed to supporting the police, which never harms or terrorizes innocent people.

I heckin' love the state's monopoly on violence!

Aww come on, let them have their fun! It's refreshing to see some people acting with a civic mindset!

Donald?

Yeah. Which is wrird since our communities tend to be pretty good about taking care of that problem when it surfaces.

I always worry about this. Ive got some specific non-vanilla stuff that I didnt ask for and cant change. Lucky for me its nothing illegal or harmful, just non-standard.

It could just as easily have been the bad.

Plus a lot of child molesters aren't even attracted to children, just the power and control it gives them.

Yeah, this kind of vague, "kill your local pedophile :)" sentiment is often just an anti-LGBT dogwhistle and makes me uneasy.

If someone is going to post shit like this, and not actively tie it to the very obvious class dynamics of wealthy human traffickers, conservative Christians who promote child marriage, and politicians who protect them (without also being Anti-Semitic), then I just kind of assume it's a thinly veiled call for violence against queer people

I really hate how right wingers have bastardised the term to mean "LGBTQ people" meanwhile tons of right wingers are actually paedophiles

You're a pedo in treatment and never touched a child, good.

You're a pedo who touched children, no more empathy, go straight to hell.

You're a pedo and the president of the USA? Time to burn the system to the ground

That's a sane take on a emotional matter. I agree.

We've had some success here with a program called "Don't become a perpetrator". Pedosexuals (which is the scientific term for people attracted to minors without acting upon their urges) could enter, as long as they hadn't committed any crime in regards to children or consuming illegal content. They could get psychological help as well as a chemical castration. Preventive approaches like this should be more common.

And here I thought you were going to counter with ahimsa or non-violence by urging violence is wrong. Nope, still lemmy.

Treating non offenders? Good. Reveling in murder instead of simply putting people in prisons? Thanks no.

What if we didn't need the nental gymnastic, they are roping democracy with memetic manipulation and demographic hacking. 1700s democracy didn't understand the power of computers, we badly need to bad the exploits and pulp the exploiters.

However, they’re not anticipating the next part

I think we can easily retort “All pedophile killers are pedophiles!”.

Right, but at this point pedophilia does exist as an actual phenomenon, which the right uses to build a culture of fear and suspicion in which they can frame all their arguments credibly.

Like people are actually worried about child abuse, for many good and bad reasons. So without addressing the fear and the underlying desire for just governance then no amount of political humanism will get through. People are, irrationally, more afraid of pedophiles than they are willing to criticize the cultural implications of the meanings of words.

That's not your fault, you aren't creating or reproducing this phenomenon and I largely agree with you. I just think its time to start coming up with better criticisms than trying to poke logical holes. The right is fighting a war and we are having an intellectual debate. I'm a firm advocate for scientific intellectualism, while exploring even philosophical implications of your plans and actions. I think this is logically strong, but practically weak argument.

Nah, pedophilia is a paraphilia. And if someone suffers from pedophilic disorder, it's kinda impossible for anyone other than healthcare to know that -- unless they've made some attempts to abuse someone.

Beating the shit out of pedophilephiles?

The abuser has to pay lifelong alimony to the abused. If the accusation turns out to be false, however, the "abused" has to pay.

Being a Nazi is a choice someone actively makes. I don't think it's the same with being a pedophile (not defending pedophiles or anything)

I've heard people go with the thought that "they wish to cause harm to other individuals, so why should people not cause harm to them?" (For Nazis, obviously). Whether or not I totally agree with that sentiment..... I'm not sure.

But comparing Nazis to pedophiles doesn't work.

Sadly, sarcasm doesn’t translate well in text - and Trump voters have been guilty of saying the most unhinged shit out loud.

Don't back or defend rapists/pedophiles/felons, maybe then you won't feel personally attacked.

Trump is a 34x convicted felon (for fraud no less), convicted rapist, accused by dozens of women of sexual assault, who raped his previous wife, hung out with pedophile Epstein (why aren't the Epstein files released? What is Bondi hiding?) regularly on the Lolita Express, talks about wanting to fuck his daughter, selling Trump meme coins, peddling products out of the Oval Office, Tesla commercials on the White House lawn, selling "gold card" citizenships for $50k (you can come to America as an immigrant, as long as you have/bring money), dodged the draft yet talks trash about uniformed services and veterans, defends the nazi hate group the proud boys, calls voters "stupid", threatening to take away citizenships of anyone he doesn't like or criticizes the government (literally what the nazis did, revoke the citizenship of Germans who opposed them)… I could go on, but it's wasted energy.

When you hang out with turds, you tend to smell like shit.

Socially acceptable, free and unlimited violence, this is the main reason behind the fascination for pedos. Anyone who balks at the idea of this violence is made complicit and an enabler. Eventually this congeals into a powerful hate mob, a mod of selfrighteous violence and justice, priming itself for violence until one of its member finally does it, shows up at a pizzeria and shoots up the place. They were going to be an hero, their life was finally going to make sense. They would finally have the power to make things right with the world but as we all know, the billionaire elite learned from the takedown of the church in the 80s and they had already filled the basement with concrete before he got there. Who even is the enemy anymore? It's billionaires! Shoot down their planes with open source anti air missiles!!
