Jones said:I’ll admit that some of my buttons were pushed by the article too, it stirred up some very old fears. It wasn’t unusual back then for gays to be lumped into the same basket as pedophiles – gosh I remember that growing up and one the fears I had when considering coming out was that I would be accused of being a pedophile, or be treated as though I was one.
In general and in my experience there seems to have been a shift in that public perception. I’m curious if that shift began to happen when some pedophile groups started to claim that pedophilia is a normal sexual orientation like homosexuality in a fake attempt to gain some legitimacy while the real purpose was to reduce the perceived connection between the two by creating a vehicle to talk about the distinctions between them. In other words, take the heat off gays, then join them to influence the direction of their political lobbying to gain benefit for their own sick ends. So I wonder if this was engineered as part of the plan in order to help pedophiles to hide behind a mask of ‘gay’ so that they can continue or advance their own sick agenda? I’m not yet finished ECHCC so perhaps that point may have already been addressed.
Although I recognised that this was important information to share, I hesitated to share a link to the article fb because I expected reactions like whitecoasts and I wasn’t sure how to deal with that, so am thankful for this discussion.
When I first read the article, it kind of donned on me that this will touch personal buttons deeply, forgetting, as it appeared to me in the very direction of the article, that it was an exposé on pedophilia and how they are very good at hiding and creating cover stories. As the pathological focus was on pedophilia, homosexuality seems to be a choice mask (most suited) to hid behind to better co-opt and manipulate their particular mental and sexual pathology from within. What you said above (bolded), seemed to come across to you also in this way, if reading it so.
As this article primarily concerns pedophilia's parasitically infiltration of the gay community, this is not dissimilar, osit, to hardcore Zionists or Hawks infiltrating religions to help legitimize their ulterior motives. In the prior case, assaulting children, in the latter case, bombing them.
Hervey Cleckley, in his book The Caricature of Love, offers the reader many descriptions (back at that time) of sexual pathology and some of the modus operandii that this pathology would operate in. Given this article, he might of agreed with this pedophilia focus in our current time.
I think it was very good, whitecoast, that your were able to share what you were thinking, including your wiliness to listen to others and work through it - appreciate the discourse by all here and thank you Pierre, for writing your article.
