Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CursedThis isn’t your personal call-out post.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited

Rule 2: No Forbidden PostsSome things belong in the drafts forever. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
  • NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT. Our own Aeronmelon is going through some shit at the moment and could use some help. Check it out here and consider an upvote or a comment to push it into activity. Sorry, not something I do often or will be spamming. But I care about my friend and if I can get a couple more eyes on his situation then I'm going to try to do what I can. (Last one I promise. Just twice. Not going to spam but dude is a big part of the Lemmy community, especially with Trek, and he deserves the help. And to the mods, if this doesn't fit and you want to remove? Go for it. I completely understand it and I am sorry)

Edit: Oh wait I'm the mod here. Well, I say it is fine

I actually believe in rehabilitation for pedophiles. This absolutely floors some people. Im sure some of you will not understand this post either.

Pedophiles do not deserve death.

That is not how we stop the problem. Pedophilia is a symptom of a more systemic issue and if these people have a massive fear of being lynched, guess what will not happen? They will not reach out to mental health professionals or crisis counsellors. Plenty of people have a specific form of OCD that pushes intrusive, unwanted, pedophilic thoughts into their head. Plenty are just ashamed and want to stop but have no one to speak to.

If someone has these thoughts and has not acted on them, I see no reason why they need to be killed other than you think too emotionally and not logically.

If you want to take this rhetoric you had better be willing to back it up and actually look at the "what if I actually took this stance rather than using it for a metaphor to platform my cause on?"

Okay but if I'm not talking about killing pedophiles, how will I virtue signal to the rest of my Klan?

And if we're actually stopping pedophilia, then why the hell did I bother having twenty kids?
