26. It is remarkably insensitive to pretend as you do that society has no interest or claim or cause to investigate

It is remarkably insensitive to pretend as you do that society has no interest or claim or cause to investigate the causes of it and to prevent it (which comes from understanding). Yes, grieving family members might not care, but that is no reason to block and censor and object to this information. Yes, more could be done, but the perfect is the enemy of the good.

In passing, the death penalty would do nothing to deter pedophiles who are not already deterred by years in prisons filled with violent pedophile haters.

It is also remarkably insensitive to write off the hypocrisy of Republicons on this issue; especially the way they pretend it is only a Democratic issue or throw in firebombs against 2SLGBTQ+. Fighting that hypocrisy helps 2SLGBTQ+ people, who need support and help against the incoming authoritarian con christo-fascist government which, you should know, is Republican.

Have you been coccooned so that you have not seen or heard or read of the maga fabrications against Biden?
