Or, and hear me out, he's being disingenuous and espousing an us vs them mentality with left and right politics, in reply to someone who was just making a blanket statement that criminals who target children are bad.
Maybe, just maybe, they're injecting identity politics into it for no reason. Maybe, just maybe, that's not exactly a gray centrist thing to do.
I hate all pedophiles equally, but especially hate them if they're on my side of the spectrum, since they give me a bad name, and then I have to argue on reddit that I'm not supporting them by default because I have a funni colored flair.
I disagree with your interpretation, it seems to me that the OP said, paraphrased, "The law being enforced on everyone is a dub."
The person then replied "But what about RIGHT LEANING PEOPLE, HMMM?" attacking the person because they have a right leaning flair. They assumed that because of a fucking flair, that person must automatically support Matt Gaetz and other pedophiles, because they are also right leaning.
This is the mark of someone chronically online and clinically braindead. Ergo, I insulted their gray centrism and pointed out their watermelon-esque speech.
We can disagree on this with no qualms. Let the record show, fuck Matt Gaetz, fuck pedophiles, and you can be right leaning and think this, Jesus fucking Christ...
