I don't think you are tripping. Get one of those youtube pedo hunters on it.

Some cultures don’t have the forced artificially extended childhood we call “adolescence”. It’s something we invented. Something we choose to do. We can stop this cruelty any time.

Yikes. Can instance admins see who upvoted? See if those accounts that did was created at around the same time, because that doesn't seem organic to me.

You are absolutely not tripping. This guy is a pedophile that spends his time making posts that all eventually feed into the idea that it should be normal and OK for adults to hook up with under-age teenagers. Please report him wherever you see him, I'm happy to share the sleuthing I've already done with any instance admin that is having second thoughts.

This is the same person:

Yo @SPR_860@Lemmy.tf are you a kid diddler, or are you just retarded?

I will just say:

• It would be ironic that there is nobody screaming about defederation over this. Of course I must be charitable and note that these are not exactly super mainstream posts it seems... But also I am not going to click around and consume this material. I don't want to accidentally click on some stuff and scar my brain (the first post I clicked on had a LINK to somewhere that I AM NOT CLICKING).

• I think everyone has a right to free speech and so if they want to make these insane arguments... Let them. I am not going to say we need to give a platform to them or anything, but I am a free speech extremist. I don't think people doing creepy or bad philosophy should be banned.

I made a post about his exploits: https://exploding-heads.com/post/722127

I don't think they're pedo posts.

The first seems to be investigating a concept that is sort of postmodern, where instead of taking things at face value we have to dig 15 levels in to find hidden meanings. It also seems to be pointing out the fact that the concept has no direct meaning and it's used as a woke weapon.

The others look like they're reasonable posts talking about how we don't treat teenagers as if they're going to be adults soon. I tend to agree, we keep on expanding "adulthood" but really in our 20s we're adults and we should be trying to raise kids with this in mind or they'll make terrible mistakes in their 20s.
