    Amongst other allegations, Courtney Love said they had oral sex when she was just 12 years old.

    More about the allegations against him here.

    Who exactly is this directed at that thinks pedophilia is "just a sexuality?"
    Seems like he's just trying to sew the seed that LGBT activists support pedophilia, which they don't

      ah well you see unlike you and me who when we say paedophiles mean people who have sexual relationships with children he means gay people for reasons of being a terrible person

      No, the guy holding the poster is saying that paedophilla is NOT a sexuality. And if you think paedophilla is a trivial as sexuality (I.e you’re paedophile or enabler/minimiser), then burying your body in my garden is as trivial as gardening.

      Nugent retweeted this like he agreed that paedophilla is absolutely not a sexuality and (it’s implied) if you think it is, we can to bury your body and call it gardening. The hypocrisy being that Ted Nugent is a paedophile.

        That's what I'm saying. Who is the supposed target? Show me the guy saying "I stand up for pedophile rights, actually!" I don't believe they exist in any meaningful quantity that you have to "protest" about them.

          I mean songs about having sex with underage girls are pretty common. Aside from Ted Nugent, there’s kid rock, the Beatles, the knack, the police, winger, R Kelly, nirvana, korn…. So so many. Then there’s everyone named in operation yewtree and the me too allegations. Plenty of those people would claim it’s just who they’re sexually attracted to, and it’s not paedophilia. I don’t think you have to dig too deep to find straight people who commit these crimes or try to minimise their impact.

    Ok but how are sexualities and plants related? I understand the joke is "kill pedos" but I'm missing something, can anyone help connect the dots?

      Have you ever had an IQ test or similar? You sometimes get questions like “A car is to transport, what a fork is to ___” with the answer being “cutlery”. It’s not that transport/cutlery or cars/forks have anything in common, it’s about their relationship to the group.

      So in the post it’s saying that “if you think paedophilla is just a type of sexuality, then murdering someone and burying their body is just a type of gardening”. It’s not exactly a flawless comparison, but that’s what they were going for.

        ...so I understand where you're going with this, but I think it is such a poor attempt on his part that I'm still trying to understand it lmao. I guess you're right, what else could it be really? Still makes no sense to me though.

          Like I said, it’s not the best example but it’s also not the worst one of these I’ve heard, they can get really really obscure. Maybe this is a better explanation/translation:

          “If paedophilla is as innocent as a “sexual orientation”, then burying your dead body in my garden is as innocent as “gardening.”

              No problem, sorry I didn’t make it clearer the first time. Like you said, it’s not the easiest example to (tenuously) explain!

    We have way too many pedophilia in the “elites”. I’m starting to think it’s a mandatory trait for you to be in the “elites”.
