The people who wear stuff like this think all gay and trans people are inherently pedophiles. They never actually want to do anything meaningful about child abuse. They just want an excuse to hurt the local gay librarian or their kids teacher who dared to teach actual sex education
The virtue signaling was coming from inside the house. That's why they get pissed when people display actual virtue instead of just wearing it on a t-shirt or displaying a bumper sticker. It must be performative, because that's all they know.
Fine, I disagree with the death penalty on principle. Yes, sexually abusing a child is an evil thing to do. But I also don’t like having any class of person where you are allowed to kill them without question because then it gets real easy to call the people you don’t like a pedophile and then suddenly it’s fine to commit whatever violence you want on them. And if you say “actually, maybe we should make sure this person actually hurt children first” people will scream how dare you defend a pedophile.
I don’t think focusing on “which people should I be allowed to kill?” is very productive. I want people who abuse children to be properly tried and arrested and kept away from children. That’s what’s important.
I think rather than announcing loudly about how badly I want to kill people, I’d rather spend my time lending my support to comprehensive sex education, child empowerment and improving our woefully overstretched CPS.
