The Left Really, Really Needs to Worry About Pedogate, Con't...

Save Our Children protests are getting bigger all the time. The connection has been made between the pandemic and its wag the dog aspect. And the Left remains clueless and paranoid about putting kids back into schools and opening up restaurants and small businesses, garnering more ire from common people, as if they needed more. Notice how many are calling for the death of pedophiles and directly associating them with Hollywood. This is a powder keg.

The dynamics of that scene are fascinating.

I have been following the rallies -- the ones in California get significantly larger with each consecutive week. Notice how many people say they didn't look into Pedogate until the shutdowns forced them to be at home with their computer for long stretches at a time.

I'm always amazed at how most people just ignore Pedogate.

I'm always amazed at how most people just ignore Pedogate.

I think people are already aware there's a vast sewer of depravity just out of sight, and are ignoring the problem as much as they can.

There's definitely a big shift in the way the average person in our culture perceives someone who is rich and famous. The age of the celebrity idol is about to fall by the wayside, I think.

In my head, here's what's happening, perpetually:

Melania: My First Lady Platform will be fighting human trafficking.

Trump: That's great babe, I'll get the federal marshals on it.

Democrats: OMG EVERYTHING TRUMP DOES IS BAAAAD!

Regular people: Wait... I thought arresting child molesters and slavers and rescuing trafficked children was a good thing?

Democrats: GAAAAH!! DON'T LEGITIMIZE LITERAL HITLER! YOU MUST BE SOME KIND OF CRAZY QANON CONSPIRACY FREAK!

Regular people: Huh.(goes home and looks up Qanon on the internet). Normally this stuff would sound weird. But there is definitely something wrong with those guys. What if...?

Democrats have done more for Trump than Republicans ever did. I was saying it back in 2015.

Me in 2015: Stop freaking out about Trump. You're making your side look terrible which is actually good for Trump's campaign.

Democrats in 2015: ORRRANNGEE MAAAN BAAAAAD! REEEEEEEEEE! Vote for Hillary Clinton or I'll make a voodoo doll of you and stick pins in it!

Me in 2016: Please stop freaking out about Trump.

Democrats in 2016: *puts pink lobular hat on head* REEEEEEEE!!!!

Me in 2017, 2018, 2019: You're still making it worse.

Democrats in 2020: Wear your mask! Anyone who disagrees with me and the little green hamsters that run the wheels of my demented mind is RACIST! (lobs Molotov cocktail)

Me in 2020: Yeah, I'm out. (does protection ritual and blocks every BLM-supporting profile)

Democrats in 2020: BRAAAAAAP! (spews vomit while head spins around on neck festooned with a wide, demonic grin)

It's no joke, the course that democrat have decided to follow and the transparent lies that the mainstream media have proven themselves willing to spread have committed me to my first straight ticket republican ballot ever.

I want to believe there is some way they could regain my trust. The effort would have to be monumental in order to be seen as sincere.

[kimberlysteele]

Exactly, I don't care for the Republicans but at least one of the Republican mayors around here (Chirico) sued our ridiculous governor (Pritzker). I guess that makes me a Republican. Sometimes I vote Libertarian or Green though depending on the candidate. And the mainstream media is a bunch of shills. Their sources are often some jag-off on the internet, so as long as they've degraded themselves to such a degree, I'll find my news directly from other jag-offs on the internet and discern their credibility on my own dime.

I was amazed to see it

I was amazed to see it in action when left wing people decided it was appropriate to support a convicted pedophile out on the streets to burn down a city rather than support a young Latino boy being violently assaulted, unprovoked, by said pedophile in the street.

2 Years ago I'm sure most of those same people would have considered the demise of such a person cause for celebration, but in today's world?

Re: I was amazed to see it

[kimberlysteele]

Yep. And wasn't one of the guys that Kyle Rittenhouse killed a convicted pedo who raped a 14 year old? I too worry about the current demons of the Left being easily switched off and replaced by the demons of Pedogate.

Re: I was amazed to see it

[methylethyl]

Not to mention all their other saint-martyrs who turn out to be rapists and domestic abusers. Floyd, Blake, and that drunk Wendy's guy in Atlanta. You'd think if there really was horrible systemic racism, they could find a better example of it?

That is exactly the situation I was talking about right down to the ethnicities involved.

[methylethyl]

I should add: I think the various protests, riots, rallies, etc on every side are basically what happens when you tell a bunch of extroverts they can't go anywhere for six months. I'm a natural hermit, but normal people go totally bonkers in those conditions. The "why" happens after the fact.

[kimberlysteele]

I know, right? In my state of Illinois, we're still not allowed to gather in "large" groups. No movies. Kids are forced to 100% e-Learning and they all HATE it.

Restaurants are empty and people have secret parties in their homes, or at least they do in my neighborhood where nobody tattles.

An unspecified while back, we were unable to hold our annual family reunion due to crowd regulations. So around the same time, a family member with a large house and a swimming pool volunteered to host "Great Aunt X's Birthday Party" (whoever had the closest birthday, basically) and the whole vast tribe was invited. A tea trolley was put out on the front stoop, with masks and hand sanitizer, and a big note explaining that old folks were present. Everyone dutifully stopped and hand-sanitized, and put on a mask, in full view of the neighbors. And then proceeded into the house, where the old folks who were concerned about it remained masked, and... there was a big backyard, a swingset and fort for the kids, a pool, a big patio, and the traditional heaps of party food. And a privacy fence.

And who wore a mask and who didn't was their own business. But I have never yet seen someone swim or eat while wearing one. And no power in the universe is going to keep my aunts from hugging everyone at a family gathering.

[kimberlysteele]

Sounds like fun! It's a sad day we are living in when hugging an Auntie has become a radical act.

[methylethyl]

It was! Never thought I'd see the day when going to a family party felt naughty and clandestine. One of the neighbors called the cops. Homeowner stepped out to speak to them, showed them the ceremonial tea trolley, and they left. Cops are keen on arresting criminals. They are really, really unenthusiastic when it comes to breaking up birthday parties.

[kimberlysteele]

You really have to wonder what the emotional/mental state is of a person who calls the cops on a backyard birthday party. Last week, there was a loud (sounded like fun) party on Saturday night with music and people playing games from the sounds of it. This was in my neighborhood where there are a lot of Mexicans -- ahem, LATINOS but most of them are from Mexico, so there -- and Mexicans, at least the ones in this area, love family parties. Meaning, they do stuff like rent an electric riding bull, catering, a tent, and a live band for a seven year old's birthday. A solitary cop showed up to the Saturday night party and stayed in the squad car. Cops have way better things to do than to break up a friends & family party when such normalcy has been prevented by Big Karen and her goon squads for the last six months.

Our police department in Ottawa had to issue a statement saying more or less, "Couples holding hands in public is not worth calling us," so there seem to be a lot of people with serious issues right now....

It's the meltdown of the Professional Managerial Class (PMC) that is suddenly confronting the facts that:

1. They're not special
2. They're not the Good People™
3. Everybody either despises them or worse, doesn't care about them, so they've got to go full Karen to get attention
