"Ok Groomer..."
3 years ago
My Politics and Social views are ideas that I believe work. If something does not work I call it out.
Don't groom kids...
We draw porn here.
We do adult entertainment for adults. (or people over eighteen)
We do not involve our work with children.
It's rather a obvious rule.
For those of you who have the balls to look at child sexual abuse criminal cases....
You know that there are people in power who want to normalize pedophilia.
There is a Netflix special on Jimmy Savile.
It does not discuss what he did.
It shows how everyone went along with it.
Everyone.
I have to ask you.
Can you look at adult entertainment and still have a iron stance against sexuality being introduced to kids?
Can you watch "Game of Thrones" and not fuck your sister?
Can you look at reality and statistics and let that guide you?
Children need morality with sexuality or it will be over real fast.
You all know I am against child sexual abuse.
I have called it out time and again.
I hope that people can keep their hands off of kids.
But....
If they can't I am out of this game.
I will work on art and storytelling and steer away from sexual fun.
Because apparently people can't stay away from the kids.
Edit
Blocks will be laid down if you accuse others of heinous activity and also if you try and get the "Last Word" by blocking others.
Your political party is not your religion but if it is let me warn you, there is no heaven.

A. I didn't want kids to get near what I do as an adult artist with adult clients.
B. I didn't want adults with "alternate lifestyle choices" to get access to the kids I mentored.
There are people who portray living, breathing preteen children as sex objects because they don't make the causal connection between presenting such media and the extremely predictable result. They believe--and not without cause--that their actions won't result in consequences for themselves.
For instance, Abby Lee Miller famously had little girls put on G-strings and wear flesh-colored tops pretending to be strippers:
https://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/.....2f301100ef960c
That episode was conceived, scripted, rehearsed, filmed, edited and published on TV. Now ask yourself this question: if a man had forced little girls to dance semi-naked and published it to the world to make himself money, which prison would he currently occupy?
In the 90s I had a conversation with a child sex offender who predicted that, in our lifetimes, what was then considered CS abuse would be not only legal but openly promoted--and that it would be women who got us there. Have a look at shows like Toddlers & Tiaras, Dance Moms, World of Dance and others for proof.
Additionally, even the most cursory check of who's teaching K-3 grade kids will show you that it's not men--and certainly not gay men--who are leading this charge.
I get there's a 1st Amendment, but where the hell are the people with morals? Society is in a downward spiral & it's sinking fast.
Why!?
Do they feal invincible now?
Do they think good people are simple going to let them get away with being evil!!??
It doesn't matter if i make a clear distinction, the fact someone said they were trans is something you're just supposed to accept, even if it's a sexual predator claiming it to get a 'get out of jail free' card.

Yeah, the future of America right there.
That guy in the opening is basically trolling the Left.
I remember the day after Trump won here in Madison, they had a massive "Hugs for Hillary" and they were convinced if enough people hugged and all sang some Kumbyah songs, Hillary will magically win. The weeping and screaming, crying and pleading clearly failed. But damn it provided some entertainment for the normal brained over the smooth brained.
Shit, we don’t need April Fools anymore cause of the state of the world.

You're showing your hand. I'm not taking any side here, just posting the information that he asked for. It's even the updated information that isn't parroting the initial overreaction to their error in the first version of the bill.
The story must not have gained a lot of steam since I haven't seen anything about it 'til now.
Thanks for the link. I like being kept informed. :)
All the more reason to pause for a beat and observe some critical media literacy.
And no problem.

Not really sure where irl pedophilia is on the sin type list of Christianity, but as far as myself goes, it's one of the few sins, that I would punish with dire and pitch black consequences. If someone is an irl pedophile under my rule, I'd let the wronged child's family spend some time alone with the pedo-person, and the only rule there would be, that he(or rarely she) should live, and fit-enough for public execution, when the family comes out. This way, the pedo-sinner would learn how it feels like being vulnerable and helpless, suffer much for their crime, and then end their miserable life...maybe turned into canned food for wild animals in the zoo or something. I really don't have any mercy for this type of people!
Just look at what Christine Blasey-Ford got to make claims against Brett Kavanaugh, and that she still got to testify before Congress even after the witnesses she named contradicted her story. Nobody ever talks about the near-million dollar payoff she got for her "brave testimony".
And personally, I believe what Christine Blasey Ford said in those hearings. What in hell would be the motivation for someone to put themselves through what she went through with that? It just strains credulity. -And I didn't see anything about any credible refutations of her testimony or hear of this payoff. Just what was that? And what does this have to do with child grooming?
Money.

Not with child-grooming. I was referring to profit motives in false accusations.
Profit motives and/or false accusations can be a motivation in a rape case etc., but they're the extreme exception, not the rule. Very few people in their right minds would put themselves through everything that one has to go through in such a case, and even fewer would get very far without their lies becoming apparent.
You'd be surprised how far false rape claims go without being outed. Have a look at Brian Banks for one of the most famous examples. Or Crystal Mangum and Jackie Coakley. And last I checked, Anita Hill is still making bank on the lecture circuit, her relevance based largely on her claims against Clarence Thomas.
https://www.alligator.org/article/2.....peak-virtually
The oft-repeated claim by feminists is "only 2% of accusations are false", for which every use can be forensically traced back to a single source, Against Our Will by Susan Brownmiller, 1975. However the FBI's Uniform Crime Report, which collates data from thousands of law enforcement agencies reports each year, the number at closer to 25%, with about 27% of accusers changing their story when confronted with a lie detector. There's also the problem that true/false is a false dichotomy; there are unsubstantiated, partially substantiated, contradicted, incomplete, disproved, and a host of other categories. And for boys (and girls) victimized by females, don't even get me started.
It's all well and good to have a "believe the victim" mentality, but we who have been in the legal world know that people will leave out pertinent details, embellish others, or innocently forget that things happened.
That being said, please do keep up your support for legitimate victims as I do.
Believing the victim is a place to start, but of course when it comes down to a case of "He said/she said" there is always some potential ambiguity. And, as you said, most cases of false accusation are going to fall apart at some point.
I actually had experience with one. A friend of mine was getting divorced, and it got nasty. His ex accused him of sexually abusing his daughter. This was reported in a local newspaper. The case later fell apart when his daughter wouldn't play along, but damage had already been done by the newspaper article.
As I said, sure it happens, but it's rare, and usually the lies will be found out.
Even I remember in my senior year in High School , an English lit teacher was grooming certain boys in her class, and a few times "Forgot to zip her jeans" flashing trim to the boys. Certain girls in the class caught onto this and a few times would openly announce "Barn Door is open!".
Anyone posting (according to the 'Rules') their art and stories here/anywhere, are not the problem. What the perverts do is THEIR problem.
We certainly don't have to condone it, and we sure's HELL should in no fashion support it actively or passively. I don't see you or any other Artist/Writer 'Here' doing that, and if someone does, they don't stay 'Here' for very long. They're outed and removed.
No one can tell you or anyone else what to do with your own choices. I just hate seeing people caving to this stupidity, this literal witch hunt against folks not doing a damned thing wrong, instead of going after those who are.
I'd hate to see you or anyone else leave or self-censor, but that's a personal decision and I will respect whatever choice is made on your part.
But do go on about how KBJ is a monster.
I cannot spell today haha
Funny since from where I see it it appears the otter way around.
I find myself getting curious now, xD Pizzagate? I was on the side of, "That's nonsense. You're being ridiculous. Children, REALLY!?" uhh hmm.... not so far fetched anymore... PedoIsland, now Openly supporting it.... Hmm... It's not so far fetched anymore is it? I simply lack the data or interest in opening up that can of worms but, it's crazy that I can actually say it isn't so far fetched anymore. (smh)
And so you supported a pedo president while babbling about buttery males.
Watergate was a bunch of bunglers committing burglaries and then covering it up badly. Operation paperclip was just kidnapping scientists before they could be thrown in prison for war crimes. The USS Iowa turret explosion was caused by a policy failure but they made up all kinds of crazy stories to cover that up. If we wanted to we could throw Matt Gaetz in jail, but that's too much WORK. Might have to actually enforce laws and stuff.
How i wish we could take matter into our own hands.
Nixon ordered illegal spying, intimidation, and beatings of political opponents. He engaged in illegal negotiations and attempted badly to cover up these illegal actions. He did everything your heroes falsely accuse their opponents of doing and what Trump tried and mostly failed to do because he was just too incompetent. Republicans decided not liking a person was grounds for impeachment. Democrats continue to believe committing crimes is grounds for it.
But you know, facts and logic. Much less important than myths and feelings.
I'm glad you are at least aware of the topic it was about even if you don't follow the proceedings.
But you said Watergate was lying (wrong, it was a break in) and then the impeachment was the only thing that happened (it wasn't) and all of this was, what? To prove you half-listened to some right-leaning documentary? You weighed in a conversation you weren't involved in to seize on one point and say "you're wrong! The truth is (Crystal says a thing that is technically still wrong)!" What was the point? Because it LOOKS like you just wanted to feel clever and superior and fumbled.
And are you aware that technically, Clinton didn't lie?
I feel it would be necessary to take enough time to give you a very thorough response to some of the things you've been bringing up if we are going to continue. References, etc.
But you argue like someone brain washed by the edited and agenda driven history books that worked on 15 to 20 years ago. Quite frankly it isn't worth the time because you wouldn't listen, or be swayed by all the references I would bring up.
It is possible you would actually care by the way but as a matter of probability it would just be another wasted effort. Anytime I start linking sources and compiling data, explaining the data, etc. I don't get replies.
I'd like to think you are different but I have no bases of assuming that. So take the high ground if you want, people can plainly see how the conversation went.
For example, you make a claim where they came up with Evidence of Trump visiting Pedo island, then say it was lost to the aether... I look at that and see you making the claim that they uncovered solid evidence that Trump went to Pedo island and all the Establishments Media who were addicted to hating trump for years non stop never felt the need to run any of it, while still willing to run the story about the island. Doesn't make sense.
Your claims are full of things like that which just leave me baffled at your intellectual loops and excuses.
So yes, please assume victory because I wasn't responding to everything, including taking pride in believing PIZZAGATE! xD even though I don't, clearly. I'm sure you're earning lots and lots of swayed minds by strawmanning the bunny. ^_^
Goodluck to you, and thanks for the conversation. I hope if we have another someday it will be more interesting.
Happy Easter! ^_^
You keep insulting my intelligence, and then you keep saying things that are objectively proven false. And every time I point out where your beliefs are factually wrong you change the subject. You were *just* talking about Clinton. So go on kiddo; tell us the secrets of Clinton that "history books get wrong".
"Anytime I start linking sources and compiling data, explaining the data, etc. I don't get replies."
Projection again. You never cite sources, you never reply when I cite sources.
"For example, you make a claim where they came up with Evidence of Trump visiting Pedo island, then say it was lost to the aether..."
Nope, straw man. Your reading comprehension failed, go back and try reading what I wrote instead of what you wish I wrote. Those were two entirely separate tracks, one about Trump's visits (there's witness testimony) and one about evidence taken off the island which was never heard from again. Not that complicated.
"all the Establishments Media who were addicted to hating trump"
That's certainly what Republicans tell you to believe, pity it isn't really true. But that's the Establishment view, that the media is "liberal" when it never was.
"Your claims are full of things like that which just leave me baffled at your intellectual loops and excuses."
More projection, more insults. Are you ever going to finish a thought? What were you going to say about Nixon, about Clinton, about anything? You keep attacking me on random things and then abandoning the topic. Loops, excuses, subject changes. We were talking about how Pizzagate and every subject change since then has been your choice.
"So yes, please assume victory because I wasn't responding to everything,"
Try responding to ANYTHING. Keep a coherent thought or follow a train of thought to its destination.
"including taking pride in believing PIZZAGATE!"
Already explained 3 times there kiddo; you failed your reading comprehension check. Go back and try reading instead of insulting. But since that was the start of this thread I'll go ahead and tow your train of thought to the station:
Pizzagate was a conspiracy theory that was insane. It was fueled by a political motivation and was completely wrong. It actually undermined real investigations into abuse while scoring political points. Further; some of the people who were lying to promote Pizzagate are doing it again with this new "omg schools!" panic.
When I barely started pointing this out, you attacked me. A lot.
The logical conclusion is that you like the political lie. You want the partisan conspiracy-theory train to keep on rolling.
No, believing in pizzagate was stupid for a loooooong list of reasons and anyone who pretends otherwise is either stupid or too lazy to do basic reading. Which are you?
You should work on your reading comprehension. You're claiming I believe in Pizzagate, despite all the obvious proof I don't. o_O so you asked me if I'm stupid or too lazy to do basic reading, which am I?
I ask you this, are you capable of reading and comprehending what is said? Or do you just assume everything as you read?
So to answer your question more directly, I read and comprehended what you wrote too well, and you're upset I saw through your smug, insulting fallacy.
Any other questions?
When it comes to Pizzagate, sorry to say I don't believe it. Never did, haven't, not something I ever believed was happening.
Some tunnels the Cartel built are very impressive. Some tunnels out in this world are amazing achievements of human ingenuity.
No Questions, get a sense of humor. If you keep putting beliefs into my mouth though, we're going to stop talking.
You don't believe in Pizzagate, you just JAQ it off. Because you don't care about facts, you care about partisan politics. You think Pizzagaters are crazy, but you'll always DEFEND their crazy because you like where they stand and what they do politically. Your defense is always "Just Asking Questions" no matter how irrelevant (like tunnel systems in deserted areas) or insulting (like telling me I can't read) because that's a common way to defend the indefensible. When I point out your fallacy is not only obvious but unimaginative you get angry. You tell me "stop deciding what I believe!" You get mad and then ironically tell me to 'get a sense of humor'.
If you keep getting mad, you're just proving my point.
Woah, sorry I'm not a Democrat. I'm stunned you thought I was. lol.
Hmm, you might be thinking about Bush Jr. Yeah I'm against the Establishment, so he's in the shitter in my view too. Yuri the cat is biased by party, I am not.
"Thank you ashkihyena for proving you're a hypocritical little punk who blocked me and sikfock666 and continue to talk shit, you're the loser like your president."
you block people for the same reason, you are now a hypocrite. Pathetic. Clearly you aren't interested in discussions, or anything. You're just here to be a jerk. I 'should' block you from it, but you do so much good for the Political Right. Please, keep showing off how pathetic you are. ^_^
And don't think we haven't noticed the mainstream conservative meme is accusing everyone left of Reagan of pedophilia while trying to ignore the laundry list of conservative kid-touchers. Hastert, Foley, Trump, Moore, Gaetz, Jordan, and Verastigui to name a few. And the Tennessee child-bride law, etc. Heck even some of the "don't say gay" laws. The education at that age is "this is bad touching" and the law, well, it outlaws those lessons. Can't have kids knowing how to report predators.
These are the facts, what you believe is fiction. Sorry.
You don't actually care about that or you wouldn't be one sided on the topic. Also, I haven't been able to find the evidence for it. The claims sure, the initial suggestion of it sure, but nothing confirming it like the Political left has to face. Luckily for them, their fans don't actually care about pedo island, just use it as a one sided weapon.
I didn't really care about Trumps view on Epstein. I just know there were lots of claims without evidence backing them up. Oh claims of Evidence a plenty, but none of it stood up to scrutiny. Because I am against both parties, I found it quite easy to investigate Trump on that one, as grounds for speaking out against him.
Mafia Money! You're obviously too young to know what sway they had and have in New York. What a silly comment to say. WooooOOoo a Politician in New York or a Big Businessman has ties to Mafia in NEW YORK! stop the presses! xD
With how many Democrats went to Pedo Island, it's pretty easy to point at them but it's also almost equally easy to point to the Establishment Right too. You're the only one having trouble here with bias. You just want to hit the right for it, I hit both. *shrugs* but I'm not saying all Lefties are Pedo's, I'm saying they support Pedo's.
"Can't have kids knowing how to report predators."
Ah, the law doesn't prevent that being taught, sorry. You ought to read it sometime.
And no, the evidence DEFINITELY stood up to scrutiny. 6 months of investigating Trump provided more credible evidence than 30 years of continuously investigating Clinton. And that's in spite of literal boat loads of evidence being packed up by Barr and just disappearing into the aether. And ask any "leftist" (what you actually mean is "anyone my media source says is bad"), they'll tell you "go ahead and throw (democrat of choice) in the same prison cell as Trump...do try to at least hold a trial though". I do have a problem with your bias, but mostly I have a problem with your being objectively wrong about facts.
New York mafia is common? Oh dear, don't think we haven't seen your sudden shift. You were all law & order a minute ago but now "everybody's a criminal so it's okay"? Even if it was common it isn't *right* and Trump was a very uncommon mafia money launderer. He ruined the family fortune in dozens of failed business ventures (surely you're so well-educated you KNOW about those failures and bankruptcies, right?) and turned to the Italian Mafia, then the Russian Mafia. The most amazing thing is how he's still alive after betraying numerous organized crime figures to avoid going to jail himself.
And yes, the law does prevent explaining what predators are. That's literally the "sex education to preschoolers" that people are freaking out about. Because as usual, they get their news from mainstream tabloids instead of facts.
Now you are taking my view that we ought to obey the Law which I obviously hold... yet when I point out that in New York the Mafia has too much power and that it's a legitimate problem there: because anyone doing business there or politics there have to be involved with the Mafia.... as me shifting my position on Law and Order? Riiiight.
I am quite aware of Bankruptcies, I'm just not sure you understand that topic either, no big shocker.
Ah well, I guess my source on the "Don't Say Gay" bill, being the bill is entirely inaccurate.
Actually you've NEVER had a firm stance on law and order. That's the whole problem. BTW Trump's mafia connections were something YOU latched onto, I was just mentioning them in passing because that's what happened. Trump had no money (he's bad at business) and Epstein blabbed about something because he didn't think Trump COULD (let alone would) hijack the deal because Epstein hadn't realized Russian oligarchs would be funding it. Try to remember that in their own words the Trump family was worth negative 8 billion dollars for a while there. They had all debt and no assets. Here's a compilation of what we knew before he was even elected about how bad of a businessman he is: https://www.reddit.com/r/EnoughTrum.....hy_trump_is_a/ It's a LOT of topics, not just his past business failures. There have been 6 years of evidence since then that his empire is a house of cards built on shady deals with the Vory, but you honestly shouldn't NEED that. There was enough evidence in 2016 he was actually really bad at business.
Yeah...you've never read that bill. And you've never read what's actually taught in schools (just as important). Just gonna go ahead and drop that pin right now because you've made it obvious. What Death Santa (sorry, DeSantis) himself has said was nothing but tabloid nonsense, and you've never once questioned it.
And I blocked you because I don't like having trash in my feed, get a life outside of MAGA world buddy.
Right after a private meeting with him, at that. Of course some of those liberal fact-checkers might disagree with the second part but you don't ever believe them, do you?
Fun fact: the way the law is written you can sue over most mentions of sexual orientation (like "Amy kissed her husband") but you can only sue the SCHOOL. If the law is enforced to abuse gays but leave straights alone (as these laws always are) then when you attack it they will be using public school funding as a hostage/shield. Who would write a law designed to sabotage public school funding? Betsy DeVos of course.
And the who's who of politicians supporting it includes a bunch of pedophile republicans, not that we're supposed to pay attention to them existing.
The math, on the other hand, is quite the opposite. But objective reality is never your strong suit.
If you want to effectively oppose pedophiles, you have to understand who they are. They're not cartoon villains with yellow eyes and black trenchcoats. They're not a secret cult of powerful conspirators that somehow psychically know their own.
And in general? They're not pornographers.
Related: massive kidnappings and assaults happening in Ukraine right now.
Thing is if this is the moral panic you want to focus on that's fine. But you need to actually do more research because your sources are really bad. They lie a lot, they're wrong a lot, and they jump from topic to topic without ever knowing how things work or how to actually change them. And if you're just following the lead and jumping from ridiculous political pander (and this *is* just a convoluted political campaign to put more money in corporate pockets, FYI) then maybe you should reconsider your motivations. Right now this is to undermine public schools and win elections for corporate whores with a "oh god won't somebody think of the children" distraction.
Although I suppose the goal of higher teen suicide rates they have might count as "altering".
And then you're going and supporting and voting for actual pedophiles. And saying you "don't care" about the people doing it and posting it online over in Ukraine. Again because you listen to propagandists, and they don't want you paying attention to their favorite people in Russia.
I guess sexualizing children in kindergarten is ok then.
Watch the Australian politician talk about how a daughter as a school homework had to discuss with her father his penis and erections.

According to a ranting politician.
Posted by a guy who doesn't believe in age of consent. ( https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Sargo.....Age_of_consent )
Well that's certainly proof of something. Something I already predicted.
Your god!
Seriously though, y u so mad? It's *good* news if the things you're so worried about aren't real.
Apparently you are much more interested in taking conservative talking points as gospel as opposed to universally accepted educational practice and common sense. It's pretty hard to have a reasonable discussion about something with someone who prefers to believe lies and propaganda as opposed to widely accepted truth.
You really need to learn about critical media literacy. Seriously, look it up. Practice it. It would do you a lot of good. You could actually make better arguments instead of just regurgitating right wing propaganda and lies.
The source of the information is a serious clue as to whether it's reliable or not. The Lotus Eaters are simply not a reliable source.
And funny you say "My party". You assume an awful lot. About my party, and even my religion. But I'll just go ahead and tell you, I'm not a Democrat. I don't subscribe to any political party. Also, I'm an atheist, and I have my own spiritual beliefs. But that really has nothing to do with anything.
And I certainly can't speak for the whole left, but I know that I'm perverted -In a good way. As I'm guessing you are, since you're here.
Your complete ignorance of best practices regarding the subject as universally recognized by the kids, their parents, and the experts actually involved show that you are just parroting the talking points of the far right, who are using the topic as yet another part of their cynical plan to generate a panic among the ignorant in order to gain votes and discredit and destroy public schools.
I know children live in a magical world of belief and are easily convinced by their parents.
If a 12 year old boy wanted breast implants should it be allowed?
You know what, Alex? The best thing you could possibly do is to really meet and spend some time with a trans kid and their parents. Perhaps that would break through your ill informed prejudices.
Sadly I don't see that happening though. And it's not really on them to educate people like you, either.
And as for your last question, absolutely nobody is proposing such things. No doctor would perform that type of surgery on someone until they had reached physical maturity.
i had a niece who after a difficult childhood announced rather suddenly she was "trans." After various procedures were done she died of a heroine overdose.
I heard from one guy who went through all the procedures and announced he was still a man, was then booted out of the group he was in.
I know you don't believe people lie but they do.
Of course people lie, but that has absolutely nothing to do with this.
The only kind of "Chemical alteration" that I'm aware of being used on children is to put off puberty. It's temporary, reversible, and accepted as valid treatment by every reputable medical organization. It's done with the full cooperation of, and at the wish of the child, the parents, and responsible medical professionals. Surgery isn't done on kids. Only on fully mature adults.
Someone having a heroin overdose and being trans doesn't necessarily have anything to do with each other, and if it did it would be as likely to be as a result of how people abuse and discriminate against trans people -as opposed to just accepting them- as anything. The suicide and murder rates of trans people ARE alarmingly high. It's not an easy road to take, and people wouldn't do it if they didn't really feel that they needed to. And it's made unnecessarily difficult by people who hate them and discriminate against them because of their own fears and misunderstandings.
And yes, occasionally people do go through the procedures and then decide that they're not happy with it. People change their minds about all kinds of things. But most trans people who go through surgery -And not all of them do- do it because the dysphoria they felt was making them miserable, and they're much happier afterwards. It's not something that people enter into lightly, or because of outside influences.
In order to get to the point of going through surgery, people usually go through years of counseling and living as the gender they wish to affirm. And no reputable surgeon would do this sort of surgery without knowing that the person that they're operating on is ready and going to benefit from it.
Do you even find it possible to imagine what it must feel like to know in your heart that the gender of your body doesn't match the gender you've felt you were for as long as you can remember? Seriously. Try it. -You wake up one morning in the body of a woman. Everybody sees you as one, treats you as one. You look like one. No one else sees you as you really are. This goes on for years. How would you feel? Might you wish your body to match what you know in your heart you are?
You really need to get out of your little right wing bubble and meet some actual trans people, spend some time with them, talk with them, listen to them. They're not really scary. They're not freaks. They're people just like you.
I am sure any sources I give will be considered “right wing” and dismissed but I am not the one chemically screwing with children.
I'm just gonna go ahead and trust the recognized experts on this one.
Just what does this have to do with trans kids?
Other countries DO have a less "keep it all secret" view on sexuality though. https://satwcomic.com/child-friendly
They have for decades, still don't seem to have any problems from it.
Somehow not surprising that the source is a ranting conservative politician here, though. Par for the course.
There is no concerted effort to protect pedophiles at large, if anything they're facing more scrutiny than ever before. Used to be people didn't know it was a thing (or at least pretended), not so much these days. Not to mention technology and social media make it that much harder to keep a rumor confined geographically. When a Mr. Touchy goes to Washington the facebook profiles from his home town follow him. It's easier to record his conversations.
If you want this to be your crusade, fine. But you should focus on actual facts, not empty and politically-motivated rhetoric. And with the GQP every accusation is confession, so...best start by cleaning your own house.
"Not so much these days..." it's been common knowledge for a long time, much longer than you've been alive that Pedophiles get killed in prison. What on earth makes you think people were pretending to not know it was a thing? People got lynched for it! o_o
You seem to forget, I'm against the Establishment, not Democrats. I just wish that party wasn't so crazy right now so we can focus on bigger things.
On the topic of Pedophiles, Bush Jr. for example did a LOT of harm in that department. I have no problem pointing it out, and you know why? I am not a Republican. xD
You're flipping back and forth between prison and suburbia pretty fast. But no, 30 years ago sexual abuse of children was some alien thing that happened "over there" to most Americans. The common zeitgeist was to trust lots of random people with children because "it can't happen here". It's a lot easier to cover up in a climate like that.
And you are the EMBODIMENT of the establishment. An easily-led little goob who listens to whatever the latest meme from the right is and does whatever the corporate sloganeers tell you to. And every single time you think you're being an "edgy rebel" because they told you how independent you were for doing exactly what they said. American establishment is that scene from Life of Brian where they say, "We are all individuals!" You're basically the guy who shouts "shut up!"
Republicans have no problem complaining about Dubya. He served his purpose and was cast aside by the establishment. Try talking about people who are currently power-players that did stuff (you can't) or the magical saints who the party won't touch (like Reagan).
You're jumping around, so I have to in response.
Ahh okay I see what you are saying now about it being foreign. Yes people used to be a lot more ignorant of how common place the sexual abuse of Children was. That "It can't happen here" mentality. Glad we have common ground on something lol.
Interesting that I'm the embodiment of the establishment when I'm against big government, totalitarianism, theocracy, etc. The real problem is the Republican Party leadership have so many of the same views as the Democrats to and keep pushing for it. That's what made Trump such an interesting event. The Republican party, the Established ones, the Elites, etc. really fought hard to stop him which of course you agreed with.
You should take some time and follow the money in politics and see what companies support what. Also, I don't actually look at memes. Rarely a friend links me one they thought was funny but it's almost always Apolitical.
Orange County.. (chuckles) okay look at L.A. county. Obviously you have never heard of it. (rolls eyes)
Ah, no. YOU can't keep to a topic, you don't get to put that on me. But what I was referring to was specifically you flip back and forth between "what people think happens over there, far away in a prison in another country" and "what is happening in schools". It's almost as if you don't discuss things honestly.
You're "against big government" in vague and dishonest terms just like all mainstream politicians, you're "against totalitarianism" but support totalitarian actions and governments whenever they aren't specifically opposed by the mainstream, you're "against theocracy" by supporting laws written by theocrats, and you support the unquestioned leader of the Republican party despite his totalitarian politics, his expansion of government, his gifting power to theocrats, his love of foreign dictators, and his abandonment of the law and the constitution. Yes, you are a mainstream Republican. The most common kind, the kind that says, "I'm not a member of any party" and does nothing but parrot republican memes and talking points. So far everything you've said is a political push or a meme Mitch McConnell has said or been a part of at least a week or more before.
I've followed the money for years, it goes everywhere. It goes a lot harder on the right because they're more inclined to be whores for the corporations, but the biggest lobby of all is the private prison industry that wants more people in prison forever. You follow what "apolitical" people say as they repeat nothing but Republican memes. You didn't even notice, because you never do, but YOU are the one who started with partisan accusations and mention of political party. Go look at your first posts on this journal. You said a chomo who isn't even a citizen and can't be a political party member was a democrat because a republican meme told you democrats are pedophiles. You always target one side and you don't even notice because you never self-analyze. You just assume if you tell yourself you're "balanced" you will be and never ask "what's the actual, objective truth of the matter?"
You said California has no gun rights and (implicitly) no one pushing for gun rights or using legislation to change gun violence statistics. This is objectively incorrect. Also it's still a dodge. The point was "local political groups had reasons to redefine crimes to change statistics".
So Alex, I've got some serious advice for you. I hope you really think about it, but I won't be holding my breath:
You need to do a better job of seeking verifiable truth and listening to science and the people who are actually affected by restrictive government policies as opposed to a bunch of self-satisfied bros who are just tools of the extreme right and crank out lies, misinformation, and propaganda. By listening to them and blindly going along with everything they say you just make yourself an unquestioning tool of those same destructive forces.
And by destructive, I mean the effect that their language and the legislation against trans kids, trans people, LGBTQ people, and all the other recent crusades against schools and the teaching of our real history, etc. have. This behavior is cowardly because it picks on some of the people with the least power. It's discriminatory and bullying, and done for completely cynical reasons. If they actually cared about trans kids, for instance, they would support the science and universally accepted policies that are in the best interest of the kids. These kids who don't have support frequently suffer from depression or can be driven to suicide. Discriminating and legislating against them just makes their lives and the lives of their families miserable, and does absolutely nothing for anybody else.
Your willful rejection of their humanity and of the science just proves that you prefer to believe the propaganda and lies.
Do yourself a real favor. Look up critical media literacy. Study it. It would do you a world of good.
When I was very young, sure, I had questions like why do people get married, why do men marry women, and what would happen if a man wanted to marry a man. I discussed these things with my parents, not school teachers. The only thing a teacher should have to say to questions like these to young children is "ask your parents."
I like to think I do erotic art for perverts, hetero or gay, who have standards.
It *is* a gay issue (and more), but the politicians lie and say it's "to protect the children" but it's actually to make sure you can't say things like, "Billy has two dads". Indeed, it's vaguely-written enough that when Mrs. Teachalot says, "my husband" a parent can sue for violating the law and watch as the law is inconsistently enforced.
It's also a school issue, since the law is written such that any suit just defunds public schools instead of the politicians and corporate media that wrote the thing.
Remember, this is the same state that banned a math book for "CRT" because it said, "here are some famous mathematicians from history," and two of them were black. Fun fact: the resulting book bannings meant only one book publisher (with certain politicians and lobbyists invested in it) https://twitter.com/juddlegum/statu.....20717023846400 https://www.tallahassee.com/story/n.....es/7357965001/ It's generally best to do some investigation before listening to known liars.
Just because I like to entertain adults does not mean I want children to be exposed to my art.
Guess what?
Rules for homosexuality is the same for heterosexuals. Do not subject children to porn. How about you tell the VD statistics for people who engage with multiple partners?
Or something else?
FUCK OFF!
You’re really deep down a rabbit-hole of believing strange and irrational things so I can’t easily guess what strange new thing you are believing at the moment.
