Yeah @
AWellArmedCat I think more often than not it's a way to be smugly sadistic with others but in a faux-righteous way where the sadism of it gets hidden behind the notion of justice.
I've experienced those type of people try to totally make up crap that didn't happen just so they then would have the authority to punish people. They would say people exposed their penises in public when they never did. I think it would be really gross and creepy if it happened and deserving of some type of punishment - but it just did not. It was just really a way to be sadistic and get away with it. And sexuality stuff can be a good scapegoat for that kind of thing. They would often target really shy and sensitive people who might totally make up something just so to appeal to authority or tell them what they wanted to hear to punish them. Or the gay community in general, since there's already the stigma that we're just sick perverts deserving of every cruelty that happens.
Wasn't so much about "justice" or "Morals" like they claimed, that was a huge veneer.
But I mean that doesn't mean I'm against a family person shooting a pedophile if they caught him in the act. Even though rationally he was probably abused themselves- you of course aren't going to think rationally in that movement and will just care about protecting your child. That is to be expected and I understand the outrage of that. I just loathe unhealthy Te authority people or something lol.
