Pedophiles don't deserve rights (lemmy.world)

Not all humans inherently deserve rights just because they are human. Think of people like Hiter, Jeffrey Dahmer, and the dozens of other evil people. No one would reasonably think they deserve sympathy, because of what they chose to do.

If your evil enough to commit such a heinous act as child rape, I don't see any legitimate reason why that person should deserve any sort of sympathy.

Subconsciously everyone agrees on this to some extent. Look at prisons, (depending on the crime) they remove your right to vote, own a gun, even walk outside, and have certain jobs.

The reason I believed my take is controversial is because of how I think those pedos would lose their rights. I believe people as evil as them aren't people at all. They are simply containers of flesh with a human face, and should be seen as such. I have no issue with the idea they should be used as slaves and test subjects. Arguably this would actually benefit humanity (especially in terms of medicine) because now instead of risking the lives of innocent people like doctors or everyday Joe's, we could use them to see if the experimental drug has any side effects. Honestly, what are they going to do? Revoke consent? I wonder of the child they raped got that same privilege...

I'm sure this goes without saying but the person would have to be caught red-handed with undeniable proof to be subjected to this

SMH. These arguments aren't the ones that are one dimensional. I'm not arguing anything because nothing but that your own arse could be targeted for punishment, rightly or wrongly, has given you pause. That's sick. It's dangerous to society. Please seek behavioral therapy. Your thinking screams that you find pleasure in making others suffer and are seeking to justify that when it's not justifiable. I understand you probably can't help thinking that way. You can seek a qualified therapist to evaluate whether you can or can't, and to keep those impulses under control, if you can't. Otherwise, to keep yourself from forced labor or torture or a gruesome death.

Really? Okay let's break down your argument then. "it's a nazi way of thinking" which would make me Hitler, correct? Which would make the child rapists the jews. You see how dumb that sounds? Making the comparison from monsters like rapist to innocent people... it makes no sense.

That's sick. It's dangerous to society

Punishing child rapists is dangerous to society? How exactly? Because I could argue letting them walk free is worse for obvious reasons.

You need therapy

It's easy to throw out words with nothing to back you up. I could just as easily say your trying to defend rapists and not back up my statement with anything, just as you are.

So please explain exactly how I'm crazy and how it's dangerous to society to rid the world of rapists. Because as of now you've said nothing.
