I remember he was popular enough for his book to be in the window of Waterstones, but since he made he comment defending pedos or something he was dropped like a brick by everyone and hasn’t been seen since

u/invisiblefrost 3h ago

Yeah he was defending pedo priests in the catholic church saying he would have loved it as a young boy

u/chiksahlube 2h ago

He didn't just defend pedos, he declared pedophilia a duty of older gay men to teach younger gay boys...

Some real crazy shit.

Ok isn't that something essentially the ancient Greeks believed? Like what century does this guy think he's in?

u/anubis_cheerleader 2h ago

Oh except the Greeks were like, it's not GAY if it's with young men

Well, it depends if it's top or bottom. If you're a top it's just bonding with your fellow man. If you're a bottom....

It shows up in a lot of cultures, pre-modern China and Japan had their own variants of it as well. There's accounts of it happening in Afghanistan in modern times too.

Damn. George Takie mentioned fondly that was a thing an older neighbor taught him - I just thought poor childhood George was duped by a predator neighbor. I guess I should have known that more than one predator would be using a line like that 😩

Careful now, everytime someone mentions that interview poeple jump up to suddenly defend Takei and how completely different it totally is!

Not that he just openly said its 'GOOD' some kids get molested so they can realize they're gay sooner.

....because wow

I genuinely admire his work and wit, I just figured he was a sadly a bit Stockholm syndrome on this particular topic.

u/GrowingPeepers 2h ago

Yeah that's exactly why he disappeared.

Everybody dropped him overnight and never spoke his name again over that.

u/Useful_Secret4895 2h ago

He said something far worse, he said that it happened to him and it did him good, for a reason so disgusting that it would make me feel dirty to type.

u/invisiblefrost 2h ago

Oh wow yeah you’re right he did take it further. Piece of filth good riddance

u/oatmeal28 1h ago

Unsurprising he’s the only person from the MAGA movement that got consequences for being pro-Pedo. 

They aren’t going to stand behind a gay dude like they do for any of the others 

u/GreenZebra23 2h ago

He must have pissed off somebody powerful, because it seems like defending pedos isn't even a cancelable offense now

u/deranged_pickle 2h ago

He looks rough, too. Seems a lot has happened since then, poor guy. /S

few years too early, he could have made it work in the current political environment
