Well, he’d still be an alleged one since he hasn’t been convicted, but yeah, there would be nothing else I’d take issue with in that. I don’t think I’ve ever even heard of the guy before, so I’ve got no partisan motivation here. “Pedophile,” like “Nazi,” is just such an extreme accusation to make against someone that I immediately assume people are being dishonest when applying these labels, and that turned out to be the case here as well. He’s already been suspected of sex trafficking minors, or at least being involved with it. I don’t see the need to lie about additional charges.
You do you.
Meanwhile, known pedophile Matt Gaetz will continue to do children and get away with it.
13 to 19 are teenagers. You can dislike him all you want, it still doesn’t make him a pedophile.

So if they instead said “known ephebophile Matt Gaetz will continue to do children and get away with it”, you’d just be like “well done, carry on”?
Add this comment to the huge list of shit I would never expect to ever say or type.
Edit: linked up definition of children highlighting that teenagers are generally considered to be children.

Are you really out here “um akshully ephebophile”-ing? I hope kids stay away from you.
All I care about is the truth. Not liking someone doesn’t justify spreading misinformation.
Go away, Matt.
