Megyn Kelly questions whether Jeffrey Epstein's desire for “very young teen types” made him a pedophile
...that he was into the barely legal type. Like, he liked 15-year-old girls.
So, by "barely legal" you mean "100% illegal"?
Barely legal is supposed to refer to 18 yo girls. They're moving the goal post.
Goddamn, republicans fuckin’ LOVE pedophilia. Just at every level, these fuckers are just doing’ pedophila, or running defense for pedophiles, or justifying pedophelia. It’s remarkable how passionate they are about pedophelia. What’s up with that?
Yes. That makes one a pedophile. Very young teens are 13-15.
Fucking. Gross. Fucking. Perverts.
Are we really entering the story arc of the US downfall where mainstream Republicans start saying, "actually I think ephebophilia and hemephilia are ok, it's in the bible", just like many of their further-right counterparts already do?
JFC America.
Yeah, it does get very ick when you start hearing people doing their "well, actually" thing when it comes to things like this. Even if they are supposedly clinically different things (?), it's all still very manipulative and predatory. And for those that are underage, illegal.
They are doing the technically not pedo, which is true but that doesn't excuse it. Bad is bad.
Technically true. Pedophelia is about a lack of bodily development of primary sexual markers. As soon as the kids develop any kind of puberty, the pedophiles interest is over. The next phase is as bad as the teens think they are able to consent, but not really. You could even argue that does not change just because they are 18+. But that's the law.
I would argue Epstein probably didn't peddle actual kiddie porn cisam type of business but more the kind of power fantasy that you are rich enough to break the law without consequence and enjoy those carnal instincts that nature gave you and society doesn't deem respectable or legal for the reasons given above. And the great thing about that fantasy is that you can trap people very efficiently and then broker the control over high value targets to other nations. And that's probably how Trump and Putin met. Putin went shopping for a future president he can blackmail into anything. And the rest is history.
Killing Epstein was probably not about him exposing powerful people but costing even more powerful people their expensive remote controlled politicians.
I want to add that Trump was likely already a CIA asset through his association with Roy Cohn, which would only make him more valuable
Right, like they're not wrong but also... Its still human trafficking of minors for sex, which isn't even legal across state lines
And anyway, is that the hill they wanna die on?
Megyn Kelly was briefly a feminist role model after standing up and calling out sexual abuse at FOX. Now she's justifying /minimizing sexual abuse of minors
What a soulless removed
Megyn, you got sexually harassed out of Fox News. I know your looks are fading, but this is hardly the way to get attention.
This is the same POS that told Bill Maher that trans was her #1 concern when it came to the election. I mean....what can you even do with that?
Without looking at the link: Are they saying he was a hebephile or ephebophile? Because that uh… that raises the question: do they think some kids are more okay to rape than others?..
Without reading; yes, that is what they think.
After reading: They seem to think that 15 is a-ok. They are saying that Epstein and pals were in to 15 year olds that looked younger than they were.
With opening the link you called it at the last two sentences: KELLY: Yeah, so I don't know what's true about him, but we have yet to see anybody come forward and say I was under 10, I was under 14 when I first came within his purview. You can say that's a distinction without a difference. I think there is a difference. There's a difference between a 15-year-old and a 5-year-old, you know?
This is really the crux of the matter. Sure there's (many) differences between 5 and 15 year olds. The question is, why bring it up? Why is it relevant in the context of Trump's and Epstein's crimes?
As long as she doesn't elaborate on it, the ostensible interpretation of her comment is that she thinks trafficking and sexually abusing a 15 y/o child is somehow less illegal or reprehensible than doing it to a 5 y/o child.
Megyns just upset she wasn't groomed. She's the kind of bitch who victim blames victims.
Reminds me of this standup bit:
Lol perfect delivery.
And they have the same last name, so surely there's a connection ... /s
Aaaaaand… we’ve entered the “It’s really not that bad” phase of the GOP’s lean into normalizing pedophilia.
Yet they'll still go on about Biden.
