    I understand that you are against pedophilia.

    But people that are pro-pedophilia often use the same or similar arguments. That’s why people have such a kneejerk reaction toward any ‘apologia’, and I’d say rightfully so

      Putting a group of people based on what they say in one bag and just having a negative reaction towards it not based on the actual contents of what was said is not rightful at all in my opinion. Don’t get me wrong, I get it. But that does not justify it and won’t stop me from trying to change the world for the better.

      To give an example it is like if someone got mad at me for saying that homelessness is a problem and it sucks just because radical communists say that as well… and yes I know that this is very much the case for many people, but I have zero respect for such people. (to clarify obviously I am not a communist and I do no agree with it. In fact my country used to be under the rule of communism and it was not great. I live in Czechia)
