If someone has stuff about pedophiles written on their body, the details don’t really matter.
Even without the hood, it’s a pretty weird thing to wear and i can’t think of any situation that it would be funny.
I think these are from JD Delay, a dude who left prison and got famous on YouTube talking about prison politics and reacting to general bullshit.
Some of it comes from people who were abused when they were kids. Others just love to talk about killing pedos.
Yeah pedos are terrible, but it sort of seems like guys with shirts like this just want to hurt someone, and pedos are a convenient target that won’t be protected.
“Nuke the Whales?”
“Gotta nuke sumthin…”
Around here it’s fascists or tankies or something.
A person that you are allowed to seriously hate on. Like, it’s accepted by your society. It’s a gift embraced by many people.
It’s a type of society.
Like the French
I missed the part where someone self identified with pedo hurts pedos, how would that work?
Not sure I understand the question. Dude in the hoodie thinks wearing a shirt about killing someone makes him look tough. He’s not identifying as a pedo… except maybe accidentally in a “thou doth protest too much” sort of way.
His clothes say “your local pedo” where’s the killing part?
Under his hood. That’s why it’s a funny picture. He thinks he looks tough saying to “kill your local pedophile”. To everyone behind him, he seems to be calling himself a pedophile.
Someone should check his hard drives. It’s always the most outspoken
Exactly. Any normal person despises pedophiles. We don’t need a shirt to let others know.
I’d be willing to bet money that this guy is a pedophile himself.
yep it’s one thing to have violent thoughts and opinions about certain people you find abhorrent of whatever but if you’re the kind of guy to advertise it unprompted I’m gonna assume you’re projecting.
I’m gonna bet this guy votes for the party that regularly defends and elects child predators, opposes sex ed for kids to keep them clueless about abuse, and advocates for child marriage.
I advertise my support for that Nintendo character all the time and I swear to god I’m not denying anybody’s medical care
that’s not the same as these moralizing bunch. yours is a class based argument. even if I disagree with a statement like that, for example the very openly evil people who are against homeless people trying to stay alive, I don’t assume they’re secretly homeless themselves. it’s clear they just hate the homeless.
Fkn weird either way imo.
Guessing it says “kill”? I feel people who are that vocal about pedophiles are usually compensating for their own internal demons. Someone should keep an eye on that man…
I really hate that line of thinking. I get why people make that comment, but I really hate it either way. Just because some people who vocally take one stance doesn’t mean they are always secretly in support of it behind closed doors. I know it does happen, but applying that logic to everyone is just wrong.
If we expand that type of thinking to others does that mean that Lemmy users are overwhelmingly Nazis because they have been so outspoken against them? They must be hiding their love of Elon and Trump just because they keep talking about how much they hate them all the time. Clearly projecting.
Unless you have legitimate reason to believe someone has ulterior motives behind their words or actions you need to assume they are being truthful. Innocent until proven guilty n all that.
Let me make it easy for you: The local CPS agent who has to both uncover pedophiles, as well as deal with the aftermath, would never be caught dead in a shirt like this.
Anyone wearing a shit like this is projecting HARD. Normal people universally agree that pedophiles are bad. The only people that feel the need to advertise it’s bad, are the ones who secretly are thinking “But I have these urges so other people must too, so I better put it on a shirt to remind everyone it’s bad in case they forget”.
There’s litearlly no well adjusted adult who thinks you need to remind everyone that pedophiles are bad… that’s just a base assumption. If one of my coworkers showed up tomorrow with a shirt that said “Rapists are bad, don’t rape people” my first thought would be: wait, were you contemplating raping people before you saw that shirt for the first time?
Me thinks the lady doth protest too much
Is a truism for a reason.
There’s litearlly no well adjusted adult who thinks you need to remind everyone that pedophiles are bad…
eh, well adjusted is doing a lot of work there. I know victims, plural, who would happily join a lynch mob if it was going out to hang pedos. I think you have a point about projection, but like everything, there’s few without-exception universals.
I know victims, plural, who would happily join a lynch mob if it was going out to hang pedos.
And would any of those people purchase and wear a shirt like this on a regular basis?
guess what: if they did, I wouldn’t say shit.
you don’t know what other people have been through. but you seem really confident in casting the pedo accusation around. reminds me of conservatives.
You’re dodging the question.
While we’re on the subject of how people “tell me without telling me” This trait you’ve displayed speaks to low emotional intelligence with the advice being, better to keep your mouth shut than remove all doubt.
Or they are saying stero types are good and allowed now because they is all this is.
I was just watching an Explore With Us video about a guy who was VERY outspoken against paedos.
…he raped kids.
What if his father raped him every night, his mother dismissed it, and he wasn’t able to get his teachers or the community to believe him because dad was “such a community role model”?
That seems like a perfectly sensible reason to want to remind the world that pedophiles are bad. And it happens a lot.
Wtf is wrong with you?
Got child abused, and the memories aren’t there, but the content of the nightmares suggests the abuse may have been sexual.
perfectly sensible reason
The answer is no. People who go through trauma typically don’t go around wearing revenge shirts. Policy shirts, maybe, but a “kill school shooters” shirt would be beyond weird.
Then he’d be weird as fuck to weird a shirt around advertising his hatred of pedophilia to the world. At some point he’d be expected to process his trauma so he can have healthy relationships with others. This is really basic emotional work we should all do.
What if the exaxt opposite of what you said, what if stars were gods tears
tempted to make a what if bot that says some random shit, because if were whatiffing anything is possible
Love it
My first thought is “Methinks he doth protest too much.”
My second thought, is maybe he’s advertising his want to assist in this specific scenario, in which case, can I have his number?
While I agree with this, I still think people who repeatedly bring up how opposed they are to something, apropos of nothing, are a bit strange and at best probably need to talk through some stuff.
Calling out your dislike of something when it’s presented to you is fine. A pattern of interrupting unrelated conversations to do so is a bit worrisome.
Bingo, if I unprompted went on a rant about my disdain for Calvinism it would be out of place and fucking weird whereas within a conversation of Christian theologies that missed the mark about the overall message a rant about Calvinism would make sense.
I can agree with that somewhat. Time, place and how often it comes up would make me mildly suspicious of someone, but I feel like I often see people instantly jump there without any additional information.
If we expand that type of thinking to others does that mean that Lemmy users are overwhelmingly Nazis because they have been so outspoken against them?
Would they overwhelmingly support waving a crooked “X” around? No. Would they support a tyrannical system maintained through fear and violence where people are separated into in-groups and out-groups (and excuses are always found to put the most vulnerable people into the out-groups) and mass executions of those out-groups are considered acceptable? Unfortunately, all signs point to “yes”.
Sounds like you have something to hide.
I can’t tell if you’re trying to be funny or if you actually are doing the thing right now lol
Yeah, who wears a shirt like this in public?
Nah I think he got it right.
They could’ve moved the text down like 5"
Did they not do that on purpose as a joke on people who buy it?
Gosh, that would be amazing if it was the case. My buddy and I discussed the possibility of grifting idiot conservatives in ways that cause them to tell on themselves. This would have been a great one.
legendary
Must be campaigning for political office.
I wonder if he wore that while voting for one.
A lot of people that wear things like that are masking. Not all, but the ones that love to call Democrats & trans people pedos are often projecting.
Well, less masking in this case.
These shirts work to self-identify as such
Oh, it’s meant to be…
Not Your Local PedophileKILL I think
people love to wear this shit to the mall or the thrift store
But what is the second part supposed to mean. Assholes live forever?
Im your local Pedophile
Assholes lives forever
meaning hes invincible.
Maybe something like “Kill your local pedophile, because he’ll live forever”?
could be anything tbh
I feel like this is even worse
Fuck, I did not think of that but holy shit that gags me the fuck up
You lift his hoodie up, and it is still bad, maybe even worse, hahahah

It’s one of those sentences where you can put the emphasis on any of the words and get different implications.
Totally honest, not me guys
I guess it’s what he wears when he’s visiting somewhere else.
I’m speechless 😭
I struggle to come up with a first word that would salvage this.
That doesn’t even make sense… Are they saying that pedos aren’t assholes or that they are immortal?
I don’t understand…Pretty sure it references “The good die young, but assholes live forever”
Often used when some (asshole) does something potentially dangerous or exploitative and survives/walks away unscathed or with little consequences but other (innocent/good) people die as a result of their actions.
Examples: car crash with drunk driver that kills other people but not the driver,extreme price hikes on life saving medicine by a CEO, (or in this image) child abusers that are allowed to continue to exist in society.
Sorry for the shit link but the song is on point
I think the ‘assholes live forever’ is just branding. Like a brand that’s ‘edgy’.
Peg?
Ironic that the site has “peace” in it.
Looks like a image licensing site.
i looked it up, it’s a variation of kill/shoot/maim, i’d say “kill” from the visible parts of letters under the hood
“Defrock” is the closest I’ve come to anything even close to salvaging it. It’s honestly kind of a fun challenge
Doth thou protest too much?
