sorry to dredge up The Horrors but these ppl never learn so if i gotta keep yappin' about this to get the messages through to people then i won't shut up

[autistic anarchist 🇵🇸🇨🇩🇸🇩 @blacknihilism]

“high work ethic,” and it’s just a loser who thinks if they put their head down enough and pull themselves up by paper-thin bootstraps, they, too, can be the elite!

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

@mari_isgross Yes you're actually right about this.
Splitting hairs over ages of consent & psychiatric definitions of pedophilia etc, is used to obfuscate the real issue of this indeed being rooted in pedophilia, that the 60-yr-old is inappropriately targeting YOUTH.

[The Road Jess Travelled @JessPected]

@prokyonidae That's all I need to know about this person's intentions.

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

yes! you are correct here in that assumption, and the niche terms being brought up in the replies ("ephebophilia" etc) are being used to misinform you; these words are subtypes invented to legitimise pedohilia as medical condition, with imaginary age "cutoffs" for pedos' victims.

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

@mari_isgross @JessPected they also like to confuse ppl on purpose, and you have to be discerning to figure out the ulterior motives behind some rhetoric. e.g., folks who claim to be "protecting" gays from right-winger pedojacketing, but end up over-correcting and becoming pedo apologist NAMBLA types.

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

@mari_isgross @JessPected unfortunately this is the place where critical thinking goes to die.
it's the same thing when pedo apologists CLAIM to be for "youth liberation" but what they MEAN is being right-wing libertarians who want to abolish the age of consent because a 15 yr old is "mature enough" 🤢

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

@mari_isgross @JessPected https://t.co/OCuOe1O2x3 (article on actual youth lib history)
local orgs for youth climate action (like https://t.co/czp9WvobEC) are good places to start for youth liberation movements, also youth-led gun control & vaccination access movements. student unions are awesome too!

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

@mari_isgross @JessPected speaking of, I'm gonna link a couple things below but sorry it's not exactly comprehensive. i just think they're good resources to have/share as a starting point to get ppl thinking:
https://t.co/PVIECX5Wo8 (good page explaining foundational attitudes)
https://t.co/caw4Nvphpj

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

the 'archive' acct's post is incorrect btw. maybe it's obvious, but too many ppl are clearly getting dragged into that subculture bc they're uneducated in this subject, so:
rape/incest/pedophilia fantasies are NOT more common in minorities! rape fics are NOT revolutionary!

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

of COURSE this person has a pre-made agenda & scripts ready to reply to posts like OP, there's no way those replies were made in good faith.
if you follow or retweet the 'fandom purity culture' acct you're just a gamergater but for fanfic.
also retweets attacks on incest victims:

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

there's a mixed bag of arguments in here, from "harm reduction" (let the pedos get off to what they want in a "safe" way) to "we can't stop it, why bother" ("it's inevitable" ppl get off to CSAM), flinging colonial/christian concepts of shame into, misunderstanding systems... oof

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

2. conflate anti-rape feminists with those conservative, controlling "parents rights" types who sprout lies like "protect the children" to cover for their ulterior motives and bigotry.

Either way you can't "win" arguments with rape apologists. they'll flipflop on this each time.

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

children don't get a voice, and those who advocate for children are infantilised to invalidate their voices too.

there are 2 sides of the misopedia coin here:

1. reduce critics to being childish (say they think a piece of media is "icky"), ergo their arguments are invalid.

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

@manonsbat also this one from University of Alberta, I really like this graphic though the file resolution isn't great: https://t.co/PVIECX5Wo8
the UAlberta page is a really good quick read to explain the foundational attitudes that create and perpetuate rape culture, including colonisation

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

@manonsbat the people who say that [level 1 basic feminist/abolitionist perspectives about rape culture, patriarchy & fascist rhetoric] is nothing but toddler-level "ick" responses to "gross" and "scary" topics are the same people who will ignore the DECADES of research behind this graphic:

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

even though CHILDREN are the primary subjects/victims of this "discourse" (pedophilia), if you implicate anyone in the conversation by reducing their arguments to childlike "yucky" reactions, you instantly discredit them.

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

the use of language to infantilise political opponents is deliberate, especially in a world build on misopedia (hatred of children) where kids are seen as sub-human attachments/property/"spawn" of their parents, with no valid opinions of their own.

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

in the QRTs of the OP, and what do I find? you dismissing serious concerns about CSAM in fiction to people being "disgusted" by "icky" fiction.
it's reactionary & reductive to infantilise critics' rational analysis, and paint it as an emotional ("hysterical") disgust response.

[prokyonidae @ bsky 🦋 @prokyonidae]

I meant it when I said AO3 is liberal 4chan.

sorry i'm not gonna align with "anti-censorship" "leftists" who use "progressive" language to repackage anti-feminist gamergate rhetoric and pedo propaganda.

i know what you are, even if you lie to yourselves.

RE that last point: lots of "macho" conservative men aspire to be like "vikings" and fulfill their destiny of being entitled little shits who get to do whatever they want to whoever they want (mostly women & children).
Historians meanwhile know that's just a weird power fantasy.
