Reddit post covertly being homophobic?
Reddit post covertly being homophobic?
Literally on the front page, wtf
Like what does being gay have to do with their crimes?
Just use "Two men sentenced to life imprisonment for sexual abuse of children"
This feels like covert agenda-posting

Oh we literally had someone complaining about the opposite issue with a headline yesterday.
There does seem to be a non-trivial difference there though. In one the article is failing to state the orientation of the victims which was a motivating factor for the attacks, in the other it is suggesting that the orientation of the accused is a cause of their criminal behavior.
Minimize and demonize are what bring those two articles together.
A very good point, and one I wish I had included in my response.
Was the motivating factor that the victims were gay or that they were seeking sex with minors? It isn't entirely clear, but the trend that kicked it off seems to have been pedo-bashing.
