They are horrible people. Every one of them is a criminal. I can’t believe anyone tolerates them. Everybody I know hates them almost as much as I do. They all should be thrown in jail, or better yet, let me and my friends kill them in extremely brutal ways. Every single one of them should be drug out into the street and shot. You know….those Jews. Oh wait, I meant Blacks. Ooop, no I meant gays! Wait wait, now I got it…. it’s pedophiles! It IS pedophiles now, isn’t it?
me, in a youtube comment this morning
I trust you can see the point I am making.
I would be worried about what people might think of me after that comment if I thought anyone would read the damned thing, but the video was quite old and had over 20K comments so I highly doubt anyone will ever read it.
Plus, one of the iron clad rules of the known universe is that people never ignore me harder than when I am trying to stir up trouble.
If it had been me and not Martin Luther nailing those Theses to the church door, people would have instinctively avoided reading them and in fact would retain absolutely no memory of that church even having a door.
Anyhow, for what it’s worth, I am glad I wrote it. It felt good. Pedophiles are the most persecuted class of people in the world right now and I can no longer sit on the sidelines while atrocious hate is spewed by purportedly “normal” people on a regular basis and nobody seems to think twice about it,
It’s the exact same kind of hate we homosexuals used to face. In fact, the lyrics are almost exactly the same. Only a few words have been changed.
And just like with homosexuality, nobody chooses to be a pedophile. My word, why would they? There is literally no upside and the blind hate of the whole world as a downside. Who would want that?
And yet, people persecute them anyhow. And note how people so easily (and illogically, and evilly) conflate “pedophile” with “child rapist”.
Why? Because the hate’s more fun that way! And it’s not like it hurts anyone who can fight back, so why not enjoy yourself?
Just think, we had almost reached a point where there was literally no group it was okay to brutally deny the right to live in peace. Phew, thank God we dodged that bullet!
See, “pedophile” just means “sexually attracted to children”. It says nothing whatsoever about what the individual has done with children, if anything.
“Pedophile” no more means “child rapist” than “heterosexual man” means “adult woman rapist”. Having the inclination and being willing to hurt people horribly in order to scratch that itch are very different beasts.
As should be obvious.
“Oh, but they want to!” A lot of people want to do a lot of illegal and/or immoral things, but we do not persecute people for what they want, only what they do.
“But they’re so gross!”. Being gross is not and never has been illegal or immortal. There is no person in the world that is so pure and average that there is nothing about them that nobody would consider gross.
“I just want to protect my children!”. Bullshit. Your children are fine and you know it. They are all educated on how to dodge child rapists these days, so don’t try to hide your hate behind parental concern. Every bigot does this and it’s fucking pathetic.
And yes, I am calling you a bigot. If you hate pedophiles, you are a bigot. You hate a class of people based on a morally irrelevant aspect of said group.
Pedohate is bigotry just like all the other hates.
Right now, nobody will defend pedophiles for fear of being tarred with the same brush.
But that doesn’t make hating them right. It only means you will get away with it.
Some day, the arc of justice will bend for pedophiles too. And when that day comes, all the haters will have to face what they let themselves become.
How will they defend themselves then?
More after the break,
Living sucks, but it’s sucking just a little now

Love the heck out of that song. Happiest depressed song ever.
So get this : before my urological procedure (camera up the peehole) on Friday, I am expected to print out two or three different three page forms and fill them out by hand then hand them in like homework when I show up at the hospital.
The kicker is that these are forms for a urological clinic I am not even going to!
What a bloody palaver. I am great umbrage at this.
I mean, what millennium is this again? The forms are online but I can’t fill them out online? You want me to print them out? Who even has a printer these days?
So far, the plan is for Julian to get them printed at Staples or wherever and then I will fill them out here at home, seething with resentment the whole time.
And I have only glanced at them, but I already know they ask a lot of the same things and that almost everything they ask is in my file at the freaking hospital.
Isn’t everyone supposed to be on the same filing system now? Why do I, a sick person, have to do all this work to make their lives easier?
Fucking specialists. They know there are too few of them so they are a bunch of prima donnas who can demand everything be done to please them.
To top it all off, I don’t even think this procedure is necessary. Doctor Armstrong got excellent pictures of my bladder and prostate via anal ultrasound (not as fun as it sounds) and concluded that my infection was either gone or nearly gone.
And my urination is back to its usual frequency. It stills feel a little weird, but other than that my symptoms are gone.
And the anarchic and defiant part of me wants to just say “fuck it” and skip the whole thing, forms, procedure, and having to be at the hospital at 8:30 am and all.
But of course, I won’t do that. I am too responsible a person for that. Instead, I will do the damned forms and get a laparoscopic camera jammed where the sun REALLY does not shine and muddle through like normal.
But I will not be happy about. I am planning, in advance, to be cranky.
So like…. watch the fuck out, world.
I will talk to you nice people again tomorrow.
