Political Memes

Wait, how come she's old enough to make the decision to have sex, but she's not old enough to have access to her money?

This guy also has a whole post on Substack complaining that the left is too wary of age gaps in relationships and that this is an "attack on heterosexuality" or whatever. It's kind of funny how these "anti woke" types will decry that queer people are all groomers and yet proclaim that age gaps and adults dating teenagers is part of heterosexual culture under the same breath.

'Should enormously overpriced child sex trafficking be allowed?'

For fucks sake

"Hey should the rich and wealthy be able to rape children as long as they pay them afterwards?"

What a weird fucking question to ask.

This is just prostitution with extra steps.

Thought experiment for anyone who thinks $10 million would make this acceptable. Which I hope is no one here in this thread, but bear with me while I argue with no one.

What if we asked this question again for $5 million? $1 million? $100,000? $10,000? $100? $1?

How would you ever begin to draw a line? Should the law say that there is a particular price tag at which this suddenly becomes legal?

Also, suppose, not so hypothetically, that we live in a world where poverty is itself a coercive factor. If the girl and her parents can't afford to say no, is this really consent?

How this post really reads:

Let's say I want to have sex with a 14 year-old girl, and pay her parents $10K. Blah blah blah the girl is not victimized blah blah she really benfits from this too blah blah really, I swear blah blah. The girl agrees, as do both of her parents. Should I do it? And does your opinion matter to me or are you female?

Meanwhile, I’ll have sex with about anyone for $10m. I’m above the age of consent. Let’s go.

Fucking weirdos wanting child brides while criticizing Muslims and LGBTQ+ people. That video of the young girls getting attacked in Iran for how they dress is exactly what christofascists wish they could do here.

Well, first of all, I don’t think I’ve ever been asked a question in such a horrible manner, the first question. You don’t even say, ‘Hello. How are you?

No because 14 is not old enough to make an informed decision about that and involving the parents will increase the likelihood that they will pressure their kid into doing it for the money.

The female ratio between yes and no is concerning

Ah yes, cause the thing that makes pedophilia bad is the immediate payment, if you defer that until the victim is off age it's all good.

Hey there's a word for that! It's called "Child prostitution"!
Doesn't sound quite as reasonable, does it? Not that it ever did.

why are people obsessed with coming up with scenarios in which it could be okay to have sex with children

The gap between yes/no men and yes/no women is kinda crazy. Also, probably has a lot to do with the audience this post reached.

I see republicans are speeding up on the weird lane. No matter how you dress this question there is still the fact that a 65+ man paying millions to have sex with a 14 year old kid. Kinda gives you a peek into what kind of people are the richest and most politically influential.

I stopped asking "let's say" and "hypotheticaly" questions. I'm so fucking done with that bullshit.

I love this meme format

But what if he gets her killed at age 20? Massive savings.

Nothing gets the pedophiles riled up quite like a hypothetical

Would your answer change if she was actually 18? It still seems crazy manipulative. In some countries, the age of consent is 16. Would this be okay if she's 16 in one of those countries? (Let's ignore countries below that age)

I struggle between two ideas: One, where I believe that at the age of majority, a person should get full rights (voting, emancipation, legal, consent, medical, etc.) and it seems wrong to let people vote but not make choices about their body (like drinking alcohol). And two, protecting the young from themselves, like by restricting labor, or setting smoking and drinking ages higher than a majority age,, because those damage still-developing brains way more.

We can fight about what the age of majority should be (16, 17, 18, 21?). I would definitely be okay if this tweet was about a 30-year-old, but I'm not okay with it being a 10-year-old. But whether it's 16 or 18 or 22 where it crosses the line is tough for me.

It's called Pedophilia, he's a pedophile or in the making.

That blue checkmark carries more information then any single word ever could.

Richard forgot to include nonbinary and intersex options in his poll. What a blunder! Egg on his face, he sure looks incompetent

Sadly, this is so common around the world, I would say that if this poll was done for every person in the world we would have maybe even a tie.

I'm talking about child marriages (which are legal and common in some US states) they are basically this, except there is less money, some of it goes to the parents, some to the child (because shared assets)

The man behind the original tweet has also made a post effectively implying that a school affirming a child's wish to socially transition before telling their parents was the direct cause of them getting raped.

He puts the blame for this kid being raped on the kid, not on the people doing the sexual assault. While also repeatedly misgendering the kid in question.

But sure, child prostitution? Totally fine. No issues there! Makes total sense. /s
