An economic, political, and safety liability all around.

The problem is, they are going for low hanging fruit by targeting unknowns with little to no representation.

Catholic priests have the full force of the Catholic Church to protect them from legal attacks that some dinky YouTuber will not be able to combat.

Also, Catholic priests do not need to go on dating apps or websites where they could potentially get lured because they are most likely targeting the children in their parish, under their direct control.

Well, there’s this case.

There are cases of arsonist fire fighters which is an even stronger analogy.

Those who claim to fight fires are often the ones setting them, so they can be seen as the heroes who extinguish them.

The point is to pacify the moderates and make leftist resistance look like an insane reaction.

There was a similar case that happened on a college campus in America. Five 18 year -old students, all of whom can legally consent, lured a guy toward the dorms through a dating app. When he arrived, the students swarmed him with phones out calling him a pedophile. They are now being charged.

Dude… topless women are saying fuck fascism openly in the streets. This is what you want.

Eh, I don’t find it hilarious as much as I find it extremely unsurprising. Mussolini had been clamoring to merge corporations with the state in order to implement fascism.

These are your corporate fucks forcefully merging themselves as the state.

Trump is going to start WWIII and form a wartime coalition government that “postpones” our election process in the meantime. There may be no midterms.

I’m going to be honest, I’m suspicious of every single ‘pedophile hunter’. They are going after a demographic that people will not rush to defend, even if innocent.

Also, these ‘hunters’ probably have something shady going in their own lives, and this is some form of projection that they also profit off of.

This could be a Reichstag Fire moment. It’s near the border and gives Trump precedent to strengthen operations there.

What if the balloons were long and vertical like the ones in Dune? That could allow them to walk closer to one another.

Yea, just like they oppose Gaza and support Israel’s apartheid

Barely even that. Someone who likes marijuana is more likely.

Just yesterday, I read a comment that literally said Greenland doesn’t have to worry about Russia because America was the bigger threat.

Like, yall realize Russian agents have infiltrated the US government and manipulated its election results, right?

Sure, but that was before almost every app was a Nazi app.

and removing rights and dignity for its own citizens

Yeah, shitty rhetoric. What our “leaders” do and what the people do are mutually exclusive. You’re still not addressing the fact that Americans have a strong history of rebellion and protest that is going to look different than the highly homogenized and concentrated countries in Europe.

I don’t get this rhetoric. Americans started the largest civil rights protests in human history against police brutality in 2020 with the George Floyd protests. And, it included the destruction of a police station in Minnesota.

Crows are typically chill and highly intelligent. Can’t say the same for ducks.
