I don’t think anyone ever brought up drag queens being behind it, OP’s just using a word that has evolved in meaning. Much like how words like “stupid”, “moron”, etc went from official terms to refer to the mentally disabled, to slurs, to regular insults.
Nazis targeted people for sexual degeneracy before they went after the Jews. I was simply pointing out that most CP posting hackers are in fact, Nazis themselves and the title is using Nazi terminology to place blame on degenerates.
I don’t think paedophilla really has a place on the political spectrum. Stop labelling everything you’re against as Nazi. It’s not giving you the clarity to think about what you’re fighting against.
I like how you twisted my words to imply that I support pedophilia in your disingenuous response. It really shows that you’re a committed sack of shit, and by extension it shows your allegiance.
I realise this is nearly a week old, but I don’t come back very often.
I assumed you were against paedophilla. I assumed you were against Nazis. I did not twist your words to say any different. What I said was that the two are not the same, even if you hate both.
Conflating the two just muddies the waters. Fighting nazis won’t solve paedophilla, and fighting paedophilla won’t solve Nazism.
Sounds like you’re the committed sack of shit, you disingenuous “degenerate”. People like you are what’s wrong with the world and why I enlisted. Yet another reason I won’t hesitate when the order is given to set 1SQ for nuclear launch. Hooyah America.
Nazis don’t have access to the Lemmy backend the way the devs do, and the devs are tankies. Tankies hate Nazis. And this attack would have required knowledge of Lemmy backend only a dev would have, so it can’t have been the Nazis.
I dont understand why this post is downvoted so much. It is calling the people who undermine Lemmy with CP Nazis (which they probably are) and points out some historical context of a specific term. I thought Lemmy would be up for that.
There’s a strong right wing element in the Lemmy comment section, especially in places where abusive behavior can be disguised as comedy or virtue signaling. I don’t care about the votes. If they hate me, I’m still in their heads.
If you don’t want the word degeneracy associated with scientific racism you’re going to need a time machine to the 1700s, because the idea of social degeneracy started then. This was the first stepping stone to eugenics as practiced by the United States against minorities, which in turn was the foundation for Nazi race “science.” There is a straight line through those points that are all united by the idea of degeneracy.
If you want words to mean things then you can’t ignore their history.
It’s common terminology deeply rooted in internet culture. People call themselves degenerates due to being unable to pursue social interactions in real life
This whole thread is pretty hilarious to me. When ever I hear the word “degenerate” I am generally expecting it to be during the intro to a Twisted Sister video.
edit: Also, we’re talking about labeling CSAM spreaders as degenerates. Pick all of the bad words. I don’t fucking care which ones, and I literally will not give a single, tiny little pea-sized shit about applying to those that traffic in CSAM.
You referenced the Nazi term, “degenerate.” Most of the time the people behind these attacks are very much aligned with Nazi ideology.
You are dumb.
It’s never a drag queen, it’s always an authority.

Well, it doesn’t appear that you have learned the concept of language shift.
Degeneracy is always a Nazi ideology.
Please leave

You’re talking to an Iraq War veteran, boot. Enjoy being cannon fodder for the rich! They own you for 4-8 years.

It very well might have been tankies, though.
Guys, I think this is a troll account. Probably from the same bad actors that caused the original issue OP is complaining about.
Illegal images didn’t work, so they took the “talk about Nazis” approach.
I think you’re the child molesting Nazi, how about that?
We can all just say whatever the fuck we want without any proof or cause!
Would you like a hug?
I’d like all Nazi punks to fuck off to hell where they came from.

No, there’s a lot of people who don’t want their language destroyed by people saying everything is a dog whistle.
Degenerate isn’t a Nazi term. It’s an insult, and insults are useful.

Terms evolve over time though
Degeneracy is a core tenant of Nazi ideology. I didn’t invent this. You’re arguing from ignorance.
I agree. This word is almost exclusively used by Nazis now. Let’s not use that word to refer to people, no matter how bad the things they do.
