A few years ago I would have argued that something like pedophilia would have been something we could (mostly) all agree was bad, but republicans had to show me I was wrong.
I see what you’re saying but you’re not saying it well. You’re distinguishing the difference between pedophilia the condition and pedophilia the act. That having the condition of being a pediphile is beyond a person’s control, but that actions a person does from that condition is. A good example would be someone with rage issues. Being rageful just is while acting on that rage is wrong.
I get it, but you need to be more clear when discussing something so sensitive.
Pedophilia really isn’t bad, just as being gay or being hetero isn’t bad.
Wow, it’s been YEARS since I’ve seen someone casually compare pedophilia to homosexuality.
I sorta get where you’re coming from, but gay/straight people aren’t by definition raping the people they’re attracted to. But outside of the concept of pedophilia on paper (someone’s brain wired wrong), pedophilia is bad, full stop.
I feel bad for those afflicted with it, and have sympathy for those who are able to not give in, but the disorder itself is bad. Just as sociopathy and psychopathy are bad, so is pedophilia.
At least we agree that raping kids is bad. Too bad we can’t get republicans to agree as well.

Calm down, you’re being a manipulative dick by bringing that up, because the person you’re citing never used that comparison to hurt homosexuals.
It’s clear that what they’re getting at is not that gay people ale pedos, but rather - people are born with random traits and no one ever chose to be attracted to males, females, or kids in this case.

… and Democrats! It’s not as if Biden opened the Epstein files.
Epstein list is FULL of Democrats. He worked at Harvard… 99% Democrats… and so on. The list is full of Rs, too… but why are you only remembering them?
Is there a reason you give all of those Ds a “pass” and pretend that they don’t exist? Curious.
Personally, I think it’s disgusting. Shame on you.
Pedophilia really isn’t bad, just as being gay or being hetero isn’t bad. You can’t control who you’re attracted to.
What is bad is raping children.
Pedophilia is bad. Bestiality is bad. Necrophilia is bad.
Stop making excuses for the most vile amongst us.

“Pedophilia really isn’t bad, just as being gay or being hetero isn’t bad.”
The above sentence is not a comparison?
Bringing them up together at all is problematic. What’re you trying to prove here?
