Hello Friends,
Let’s just be clear, rapists are bad people. Rapists are people who abuse other human beings. They inflict lifelong damage. They absolutely cannot be trusted with power.
Unfortunately, the United States of America is a nation full of rape apologists. Getting them to admit that rape is wrong is like nailing Jell-o to the wall.
I also want to be clear that I’m simply making a general statement. There are people out there who will read the title to this article and start getting all worked up.
“But he’s not a rapist! All those accusations were total BS!”
Well, if “he” is not a rapist, why was he the first person you thought of when I mentioned the word? Does he have a reputation as being a rapist? Does he have hundreds of accusers? Do you still support him despite all that?
Then sorry to break it to you, but you’re a bad person.
If you care to upgrade to a paid sponsorship, it would make my day. As always, give what you can! Thanks in advance
I see all kinds of articles where people try to be intellectual and say things like, “No, the supporters of the candidate who has been found guilty of rape are not all bad people.”
Um… they are though.
I mean, I get the impulse to try and be “even-handed” and to give people the benefit of the doubt and all that. I hear people when they say, “Well, if you get in their face then they’re never going to change.”
But it seems to me that people who say something like that are recklessly misinterpreting the gravity of the situation.
We’re talking about a human being who has held other human beings down and brutally violated them.
You can’t support a person like that and then feel entitled to walk around in a little delusional bubble thinking that you’re somehow “good.”
If you support a rapist, you are a piece of s**t human being. That’s all there is to it.
This also applies to anyone who supports a political candidate who spends all his free time hanging out with known child sex traffickers.
I mean… seriously, for the love of God, what the hell is wrong with the population of the United States of America?
No, you can’t tolerate or defend a person who brutally raped children and consider yourself a human being. That action is the ultimate betrayal of humanity. What the hell are you thinking?
All the pressure to “moderate your language” with regard to child rape is completely misplaced. It’s created a society that doesn’t just disregard these kind of abuses, it actively enables them.
Do you want to be an accessory to child rape? Well… you are.
I mean, we also live in a society where children get murdered by maniacs wielding military grade weapons. If you support that, you are an awful human being too.
Quit getting all academic and intellectual and start getting angry.
Child rape must stop!
Child murder must stop!
If you disagree with me, f**k you!
That’s the attitude we need.
I mean, look around! We’ve got rapists hanging around with pedophiles and smirking at us because they know they’re protected by all the mechanisms of power in this country. They aren’t even hiding it! There’ a pending discharge petition to force a floor vote on releasing the Epstein files.
Let’s be clear about that. The Epstein files are a treasure trove of evidence against high profile pedophiles, and around half of our elected officials are blocking that.
People who protect pedophiles are garbage human beings.
So take all your, “Well… not all of them are bad and you’re doing more harm than good by saying so” arguments and shove them up your ass.
Kids are getting brutally raped. The fact that nobody has been held accountable suggests that innocent kids are still getting brutally raped. We’ve got a responsibility to put monsters in jail and protect our children.
Instead, a large number of Americans think it’s a good idea to vote for men who have been credibly accused of sexual misconduct.
Anyone who votes like that is the kind of trash human being you don’t want around your kids.
All that being said, I’m sure I’ll get plenty of people in the comments arguing the importance of protecting pedophiles, or at least lecturing us to maintain the white supremacy code of silence and say nothing.
It’s sickening how many people have allowed themselves to become the unwitting enablers of abuse.
Well… you can’t claim ignorance anymore.
