They discovered a neat hack. It lets them accuse people of a crime so bad that reasonable people are reluctant to try to defend the accused. It also allows them to imagine the most extreme punishments on the accused. Also, the emotional response of revulsion makes you easy to be manipulated by people who want you to focus your energy on whatever you’re disgusted by, whether real or not.
It also means they never have to question the morality of their behavior since the “them” they are targeting are so depraved it justifies almost any actions to stop them.
From a post on reddit about why certain people “are obsessed with pedos”. I felt this was relevant here.
The original context was in relation to Q anon, but it’s the exact same behavior that we see from antishippers.
If you’re not revulsed by pedos, a forensics team needs to look at your computer.
Thank you for an example of the behavior! The original post was about how certain people can use a label that everyone knows means Bad Person and mark someone as a Bad Person to whom Bad Things should happen. Then if someone asks how we know that person is a Bad Person, these people can claim that the questioner is also a Bad Person to whom Bad Things should happen, and people usually don’t want to be associated with that label for fear of the consequences. Pedophile, apostate, sinner, Auslander, proshipper, whatever label is most immediately societally unacceptable.
A quick look at @the-davest-of-uncles blog reveals that they are a gun totaling anti immigrant conservative of some kind.
