      A German guy (Helmut Kentler) was allowed by his government to rehouse orphans with known pedophiles to encourage what he claimed would be sexually fulfilling relationships(???) for both “participants”.

      The European brainpan that would allow that wouldn’t even flinch at this so I’m not at all surprised.

        what the FUCK

        he justified his program to the senate with cw ableism

        spoiler

        “These people only endured these moronic boys because they were in love and infatuated with them.”

        Imagine being considered so unlovable as a child by your government that they willingly hand you off to pedophiles. DEATH TO GERMANY.

      The only way I could see this being ethical is if they know for sure these lumps of neurons aren’t conscious, which I don’t think you can really claim with any certainty right now.

      could be ok, too bad it’s done by capitalists; remember, in the west the prevailing attitude to stuff like stem research is also “ew gross” and china is beating our ass in that area
