A 13-year-old girl at a Louisiana middle school got into a fight with classmates who were sharing AI-generated nude images of her
The girls begged for help, first from a school guidance counselor and then from a sheriff’s deputy assigned to their school. But the images were shared on Snapchat, an app that deletes messages seconds after they’re viewed, and the adults couldn’t find them. The principal had doubts they even existed.
Among the kids, the pictures were still spreading. When the 13-year-old girl stepped onto the Lafourche Parish school bus at the end of the day, a classmate was showing one of them to a friend.
“That’s when I got angry,” the eighth grader recalled at her discipline hearing.
Fed up, she attacked a boy on the bus, inviting others to join her. She was kicked out of Sixth Ward Middle School for more than 10 weeks and sent to an alternative school. She said the boy whom she and her friends suspected of creating the images wasn’t sent to that alternative school with her. The 13-year-old girl’s attorneys allege he avoided school discipline altogether.
Those characterizations depend on circumstances. Many of those labels (con men, racketeers, etc.) fall under the general category of corruption. A felon needs to have convicted of a felony. Rapist? Sure, that applies to Trump, and I usually include it. Frankly, it was oversight, so feel free to add it to my list. AreAGAs rapists? Probably not technically, but they are Rapist adjacent. Apparently they support rape.
Who’s “redefining” anything?
Pedophile doesn’t though?
Agreed.
Fully agreed.
What is your definition of pedophile?
This entire conversation is around your change of the definition of this word to include these asshats instead of just conceding they are “pedophile adjacent.”
No, Pedophiles are a special category. If you have a confirmed pedophile living in your house, actively molesting children, and you cover for them, make excuses, offer alibis, deny their behavior, etc., then you are just as guilty of pedophilia as they are. It’s just like when a group plans and commits a murder, it isn’t just the triggerman who gets charged with murder, it’s also his accomplices.
If you know there are pedophiles among your organization, and you don’t enthusiastically root them out, and instead cover for them, you are guilty of pedophilia also.
What is your definition of pedophile?
Why doesn’t your murder example extend to voters? Or does it?
A pedophile is anyone who participates in the sexual abuse of underage people.
If Trump was openly committing murder, and MAGA voters were supporting it and defending it, I absolutely would accuse them of murder. I’m getting pretty close with the boat bombings, but I’m still short of calling it murder just yet, but I’m getting there. I’m saving that charge for when he trains his murderous inclinations on American citizens.
I see, so is “participates” the word you want to argue about now?
For the sake of argument, let’s assume that Luigi Mangione did in fact kill Brian Thompson. Are all of the people who support him murderers?
You can accuse anybody of whatever you like. Doesn’t make it so.
I see no reason to “argue” about the word “participation.” You can try to argue about it, but my meaning is clear, arguing about parsing words is boring, and I have no more to add in that regard.
No, because killing a Corporate Serial Killer for Profit isn’t murder, it’s defense of others, and legal.
And/Or
It wasn’t murder at all, just a normal, predictable correction to the Free Market. The Corporate Serial Killer’s policies went so far in abusing his customers that they eventually spawned a customer so angry that he ended the source of those abusive policies. Studies show that following the hit, not only his company, but other health care companies as well, loosened their approval policies for a time, proving that it WAS a Free Market correction. That’s not murder, that’s Economics.
