45 minutes ago, long-time user Rondomi posted a topic on the Comradeship space titled “On Paraphilia”.
This will be the only surviving trace of that thread which has been scrubbed away, a single screenshot that instantly gives away what their topic is really about (and proves that this topic did exist):
In this long screed that we will not be copying from (and that you won’t be either, just in case you saw that thread and what was in it), they make the defense of pedophilia under semi-clinical terms wielded like a wobbly club.
They conflate terms like “paraphilia”, which is a blanket clinical term used by therapists to determine how to help their patients, with pedophilia itself. We don’t have any illusions about engaging with their blatant defense of pedophilia, so that is where we will leave our argumentation. There is no argumentation to be had and there is no need to engage with the argument.
Suffice to say, Rondomi was not making a “what if” thought experiment or trying to engage with the idea. Rather, as was made evident by the content of their post, they were trying to create acceptance of pedophilia within Lemmygrad by abusing communist language, clinical language, and finally using pro-pedophile language that they no doubt learned from such groups which they seem to be spending time in. This wasn’t just an off the cuff moment, this was planned, elaborated, and carefully typed.
In other words, if you are in contact with Rondomi, we highly advise banning them from every space you share with them and blocking off all contact with them.
That is the only point of this thread.
The other point is that we will keep comments open for a few moments. If you wish to go off on Rondomi, you can do it here. But just in case this needs to be said, be aware what happened to their account when you do so.
This is very bad. There is a reason why it falls under the term “paraphilia”, such things should never be defended.
And this person is obviously dangerous. Because bad things happened once to me when I was a child, I read more about it and also from a manual for therapist how they have to be treated, when I went through therapy. The first thing was to make it clear, that nothing about it is normal or OK. There were several pages describing which arguments some use to defend it and why it is wrong - It is so much important to point it out. But if someone having it and starts finding it normal by making excuses (They bring historical things, which are all wrong) and so on, then this is a problem. It means, that such person can do a bad thing.
It is sad to see, how someone even tried to use marxist terms to defend it. One thing should always be clear: There is no objectively reason, why this should be OK.
Thank you administrators for finding, banning it and most importantly warning other users. You did something very good and maybe saved other people. I wish you a nice day!
