Nothing to see here, just join lemmy promoting a pedophile instance. Not a good look for the fediverse

cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/6400327

In case anyone is wondering, it's rqd2.

The definition of paraphilia is "a condition characterized by abnormal sexual desires, typically involving extreme or dangerous activities.", which can inclde pedophilia.
It has recieved 4 censures from fediseer due to the content contained on that instance
Not a good look for Lemmy to be promoting any instance like that.
You can see for yourself here

Update: A pull request was sent to remove the sus instance. It should no longer show up soon

Holy fuck.
I was a teacher for a private company at 17. I taught kids aged 6-14. A couple of my students I had occasional intrusive sexual thoughts about.
She was 8, which was way below my AoA of 12+, and she certainly hadn’t started puberty. But she was attractive. She made me nervous, I thought about her everyday, I envisioned what we’d do together–she was just like any crush to me, only instead of an adult, she was a kid. But does that really make a difference? She was a person. What should age have to do with love? Eventually shit happened.
They even call it the pediverse.
- Hello! I’m AR15U! I’m the owner of rqd2.net! I’m transgender and transrace, and questioning transage and transabled. I’m a MAP as well
  What in the unmitigated fuck is this? How can someone be so ridiculous... transrace? Transage?! Transabled?!! Is this some sort of weird roleplay to make trans people look silly?
  Appropriate gif
  
  It wouldn't surprise me at all to find out that they are trying to make trans people look bad.
  
  Yeah, I think Poe’s Law may be in full effect here. The law basically states that without some sort of signifier that it is parody, it’s impossible to create a parody of an extremist that is so extreme that it’ll never be mistaken as genuine. It was originally applied to fundamentalist Christians, but has since been expanded to pretty much any trolling or extremist viewpoints.
  I genuinely hope that it’s a troll trying to make trans people look bad. Because that’s honestly the best-case scenario. The idea of this person actually existing is more gross than the alternative. Because if they actually exist, then it means they’re not just a troll trying to make trans people look bad. It means they’re a goddamned predator who needs to be sequestered away from the rest of society, and should never be allowed near children.
  
  They're edgy teenagers. They're hearing adults talk about these horrible trans pedophiles, and they want to rebel against their parents.
  
  It reads like one of those 4chan pranks actually gaining followers.
  
  Mentally ill is much easier to say
  
  Unfortunately, there are actually people like this.
  "Transabled" is a term some people use that wish to be disabled. There were even cases of people who paid doctors illegally to amputate a limb or they hurt themselves.
  "Transage" are people who believe they actually have a different age. For example they feel like they are really 13. Some of them use that to justify relationships with minors.
  They try to piggyback on the trans movement and present mental acrobatics in a whole new dimension of fucked up to explain why they are supposedly similar to people who are trans. (Which they really obviously aren't, I think that doesn't need explaining.)
  And you can bet on it that trolls and right wingers use these obscure group of mentally unwell people to attack LGBTQ people and movements.
- What. In. The. Actual. Fuck.
  How can someone be so damn open about being such a terrible living being? I feel like I'm gonna puke.

  mohammad they even have a religion after it. many pedophiles are now converting to islam because of it.
- What's horrifying is the amount of pedo apologists on some lemmy instances. They screech that as long as they aren't touching kids they're free to be attracted to kids because it's not hurting anyone. Anyone that looks at a kid and thinks sexual thoughts already crossed a line and should never be allowed access to children or the internet. Horrifying. Pedo is not a sexual orientation.

  The person in the quote you're responding to is saying they actually abused a child and are defending that act. IMO this in particular should be much more harshly condemned; communities of people excusing and telling each other it's ok to abuse children.
- My day was far better before reading this.
- Makes me wanna puke 🤮
- somebody call insane clown posse
  
  Why? I know how magnets work.
  
  I hate that I immediately got this comment.
- Well adjusted ex reddit user
- there are lead pills that cure this condition permanently
- But does that really make a difference?
  yes
