I talked to my fellow posters here with an issue of faith. I opened my heart.
Many, many members took the time out of their days to encourage me, uplift me, help me with finding Christ. Shared stories and opened their own hearts.
They didn't have to, but they did. People, older, younger, whatever their background. Took time out of political decodes and earthly matters to help me with a matter of faith.
Even people who weren't necessarily Christian, or were Christian but had different beliefs about it all, still took the time to write kind words.
I hope if you're reading this, you might be looking to write your latest hit piece for a soulless media company, you might be an angry person from Reddit, or you might just be someone curious as to what it's all about, I hope you take the time to just see what kind people are here.
Are peace loving, God loving patriots really such a threat to the system?
Ask yourself why.
I hope you open your hearts to the Lord.
It ain't a bad thing.
Would it help if I said "groomer" instead of pedophile? Do you draw a distinction between those grooming kids for sexual acts and those committing sexual acts?
Is it a case of semantics?
I do get what you're saying. I entirely understand your argument purely from a legal perspective.
But dammit, sometimes when you know something in your gut, you know something in your gut.
I get that's a statement that wouldn't hold up in court.
I do agree that we have to be careful about word desensitization, in the same way that the current batch of colour revolutionary footsoldiers use "RACIST!" for anything that they don't like, but at the same time I suppose the crux of what I'm getting at is that I think the act of grooming IS a pedophilic sexual act upon a Child even if it wasn't a direct physical instance of contact, and I guess that's why it's hard to draw any distinctive line between the two in my mind. Or in my gut, whatever.
In the same way that I think someone with a cache of child porn on their computer is a pedophile even if they have never laid a hand on a child. I wouldn't make a distinction, even if it could be argued in a court of law that there is one.
I get that "no smoke without fire" isn't a credible legal argument and thus in that sense I can agree on some level that what I posted was a "crumb" instead of a "proof".
I don't necessarily disagree with the things you're saying, but I still remain firm in my belief that Eleonora Fors Szuba is an actual pedophile. People rarely groom kids without being into that shit.
Of course, dude. <3
I do feel like there is some desensitization going on with the word "groomer" though.
It sounds benign.
Do we have to start adopting the phrase "ULTRA GROOMERS"?
