Thanks for your concern. 🫶

I’m not looking for help and certainly not pity. This is just one of my outlets, I’m a yapper, I love talking, lol.

where does this me being 17 thing come from?

i’ve been open about my age since i first got on here. even had an asklemmy post about birthday celebrations months ago

i’m not 17

i’m a feb baby, hence the violet in my username

Meme in question:

I can’t take any opinions on this topic from people on here seriously anymore when so many were in the trenches fighting for Michael Jackson using the same defense lines as MAGA uses for Trump: extortion, greedy fake victims, hit job by some enemy, circumstantial evidence, and no conviction, etc. People don’t actually give a shit about child abuse or pedophiles, lol.

The “movies” that try to whitewash Hitler are (rightfully) condemned as neo-Nazi propaganda (for example, The Greatest Story Never Told). In the same way, this biopic comes across as apologia for pedophilia. Calling it “personal life” is absurd when that “personal life” involves pedophilia and serial child abuse.

Frankly, neo-Nazis make the same kind of argument you’re making in your first paragraph when discussing Hitler: “yeah, yeah, the Holocaust, but what about the infrastructure?”

My parents tend to go a bit over the top, people who’ve seen my older posts will know what I mean. The original plan was for a family friend to come along, but I decided against it because it didn’t feel like much of a solo trip anymore. These guys just follow my lead and do whatever I want, so it still feels like a solo trip.

It’s only bad taste if it dominates your preferences. Otherwise, it’s just guilty pleasures.

It’s not about that. If I can tell something is objectively bad but still enjoy it, I consider it a guilty pleasure, lol.
