    The meme states that one group has hurt kids…and that’s it. And that is a fact. One group has hurt kids. You’re interpretation that the meme is saying only one group has hurt kids is just that - your interpretation. I’m asking you to look at the your statements that you are basing your opinion on logic and facts and weigh that against the exact wording of this meme. Factually, the meme states one group has hurt kids. It does not say only one group has hurt kids. The truth of that can be seen by simply coldly and logically reading the title of the post/meme.

    But if you’re now saying that facts and logic aren’t the only thing that come into play here then I agree with you. In that case, we have to look at context and probability, neither of which can be factual as the data is scant. But it’s also pretty reasonable, based on what we do have, that its accurate to refer to priests as a group that hurt kids. We can’t really say that about drag artists.

      I’m sorry that you’re interpreting the statement incorrectly, because the statement doesn’t stand on its own. The statement stands with the meme it was posted with. With 2 groups of people pictured. You’re arguing tangentially to reality here. I’m sorry if you’ve failed to understand. Good luck.

        I’ve answered elsewhere but I am being slightly disingenuous to try and make a point, I admit.
