the far-right was spot-on about all of this being a slippery slope and where it would lead us.

By "this" you mean what exactly? Gay marriage? The decriminalization of gay sex? The far-right has been saying that about almost everything LGB for a long time. Usually they are wrong.

'this' being that "up next will be the normalization of pedophilia".

Spot. On.

The far-right is wrong about a lot of things. Historically it is also wrong about the LGB Liberation movement which it has opposed since its inception. Also, they are opposed to trans but for the wrong reasons. The irony here is that the trans agenda is inherently conservative because it enshrines sex-based stereotypes just like the far right and the religious right. What the right wants and what radical feminists want are at opposite ends. You're basically arguing that decriminalizing SSA led to pedophilia. That is insanely homophobic and ignores that most pedophiles are men who prey on girls.

I'm not arguing anything. I'm just pointing out that their prediction was correct.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. Conservatives make many prophecies, and some of them turned out true, that's it.
