Could we also not call people who are sexually attracted to 16 year olds pedophiles, please?

A pedophile in medical/psychiatric terms is someone who is sexually attracted to prepubescent kids, not to 16 year olds who in any biological sense are adults, if not in a mental sense.

I don't see this as being wrong, 16 is the age of consent in the majority of US states.

That doesn't mean some old fart being attracted to a 16 year old isn't gross and weird though.

The term “pedophile” carries a certain unique cultural stigma which really needs to be applied to those people to - however marginally - reduce the chances of them actually acting on their monsterous and degenerate impulses.

I wouldn't consider an older person liking a 16 year old to be monsterous or degenerate though in and of itself.

You do have to wonder if they would draw the line at 16, or just screw anyone who they can get their paws on, though.

The Spongebob TV Show was designed with the intent of pushing young children into a mindset where far-right political ideology could be implanted more easily.

[OSR stands with Israel]

so you think William Jennings Bryan, who was similar to someone like Bernie Sanders on economic issues, wasn't a liberal because he was socially conservative?

Bryan wasn't anything other than a conservative when it came to economic issues.

Damn, I was hoping it'd be in Florida so I could go to both the RNC and DNC

What kind of person would want to simultaneously want to go to both the DNC and the RNC on the same cycle. Going to a convention where a candidate is formally accepting a nomination when you oppose that candidates sounds like one of the worst ways possible to spend ones time.

Uh, why does this go here exactly?

Okay? Still don't know what's ignorant about this post

Uhhh, journalists for one. I would imagine that an outright majority of posters on this site watched both RNC and DNC 2016. I thoroughly enjoyed DNC despite my hatred for the devil.

Protesters would also like to keep travel costs and/or carbon footprint low by having both national conventions nearby.

[Coastal Elitist]

I don't know why this thread isn't named after Solid because he says something absurd and ignorant at least once every few days.

Because it's a liberal skewed forum, they would much rather throw a conservative under the bus.

There's literally another thread named after Solid. Try again.

I really don't see the difference between that one and this one. They should be merged

That post is 100% true.

Yeah, I have to agree. There's a difference between being, say, a 40 year old into 16 or 17 year olds (which is obviously still creepy and bad), and a 40 year old into 8 year olds.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Even Dems think FDR is bad, he is so overrated


Maybe AOC should have lived under Carter's incompetence or Mondale's immense tax increases, then maybe she would know what to support and what not to

[AtorBoltox]

The better option would've been not having an embargo around a country we weren't at war with, in a war we were officially neutral in...

[PSOL]

Eventually this sort of thing was going to happen.

Strange that it happenend in New Zealand though, I thought more in Europe - considered how many extremist Muslims targeted the population there ...

"White nationalism" is just a extreme reaction to SJW anti-whitism and open-borderism, led by such horrible institutions attacking freedom of speech like the SPLC.

In reference to Fraser Anning:

I want more politicians like him.

He's right.

White nationalism has been around far longer than muh s jay dubyas.

Modern US white nationalism is just a reaction to racist hicks having less influence in this country.

Feinstein will help O'Rourke unite the Party's establishment faction, and prevent the Jewish exodus from the Democratic Party. Feinstein is also more conservative than O'Rourke and has an established donor base based out of California.

What I said is a fact.

White nationalists in this country don't like the fact that the country is becoming more diverse, and they feel threatened by this.
