    Let me make it easy for you: The local CPS agent who has to both uncover pedophiles, as well as deal with the aftermath, would never be caught dead in a shirt like this.

    Anyone wearing a shit like this is projecting HARD. Normal people universally agree that pedophiles are bad. The only people that feel the need to advertise it’s bad, are the ones who secretly are thinking “But I have these urges so other people must too, so I better put it on a shirt to remind everyone it’s bad in case they forget”.

    There’s litearlly no well adjusted adult who thinks you need to remind everyone that pedophiles are bad… that’s just a base assumption. If one of my coworkers showed up tomorrow with a shirt that said “Rapists are bad, don’t rape people” my first thought would be: wait, were you contemplating raping people before you saw that shirt for the first time?

      eh, well adjusted is doing a lot of work there. I know victims, plural, who would happily join a lynch mob if it was going out to hang pedos. I think you have a point about projection, but like everything, there’s few without-exception universals.

        And would any of those people purchase and wear a shirt like this on a regular basis?

          guess what: if they did, I wouldn’t say shit.

          you don’t know what other people have been through. but you seem really confident in casting the pedo accusation around. reminds me of conservatives.

            You’re dodging the question.

            While we’re on the subject of how people “tell me without telling me” This trait you’ve displayed speaks to low emotional intelligence with the advice being, better to keep your mouth shut than remove all doubt.

              guess what fuckface:

              I’m in no way obligated to engage with your bullshit. Your entitlement to my time is now revoked. Have a horrible life.

                I think the takeaway from this conversation can be: Don’t wear shirts that talk about murdering anyone if you want to be perceived as normal and well adjusted, they’re weird.

                  yeah not advocating for that, nor defending the people pictured, but I know victims, and if they wanted to tear some pedo apart I would NOT stand in their way.

                Nice. You double down and revealed yourself to be what you just claimed I am. Amazing display.

      I was just watching an Explore With Us video about a guy who was VERY outspoken against paedos.

      …he raped kids.
