This will be used to target LGBTQ+ people who will be labelled pedophiles.

[–] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 58 points 2 days ago

Sure will. I’ve talked to family and friends about this stuff, and they think I’m taking crazy pills. No one believes me. The LGBTQ+ community sees it a mile away. I’m pretty scared, ngl.

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 53 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yup. They’re already trying to define drag as inherently sexual, and will target trans people based on this. Just going outside while trans will be exposing children to sexual material.

They're going in the direction that Russia is today. Today in Russia they equate homosexuality with pedophilia, so if you're just visibly gay you will be assaulted or arrested for being a pedophile. This is what Republicans want for America, and if they're literally going to start killing pedophiles then that is the red carpet being rolled out for the death camps

I mean, yeah. It was literally written in Project 2025.

On one page: execute all pedos

A hundred pages later: all trans people are pedos

And liberals will wring their hands and bemoan it, while saying "pity we can't stop the zyklon chambers. After all: it's the law, and if we go against it we're literally no better than the fascists"

[–] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

And the leftists will still be here circlejerking about liberals

Edit: gestapo kicks in door "I'm not a liberal!.... have you heard of our lord and savior Joseph Stalin?"

Are you trying to shut me up because you think I'm right and that hurts your feelings?

Or are you trying to shut me up because you think I'm wrong, but have no rebuttal because I'm actually right and that hurts your feelings?

[–] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Neither you're wrong and whiney and a hypocrite

There are two important points to note about this:

  1. The Daily Mail is by far the most xenophobic mainstream newspaper in the United Kingdom. It's like Fox News, except you actually need to know how to read.
  2. Under Project 2025, transgender people will be classed as sex offenders. You can see where this may be going. Bad news.

They didn't say "Republicans," they said "pedophiles." You see, Republicans can't be pedophiles—you're incorrectly assuming that they actually mean pedophiles.

Nope, "pedophile" is, by definition, someone who Republicans want/have decided to execute.

If this passes, we're on the fast track to a new Holocaust.

Americans in 1945: Defeat Hitler

Americans in 1939: "But y'know, this Hitler-guy raises some good points"

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 24 points 2 days ago

Yeah. Except them. They’ll just pull a trump, get convicted, then nothing will happen. But heaven help you if you’re a minority. They just want to bring back lynchings.

[–] dnick@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 days ago

Probably a line in there that defines a pedophile by excluding anyone who registers Republican, or swears to God it's not true

No doubt there's a bunch of Catholic priests getting ready to flee to the Vatican right now.
