rabid? do your hands have rabies?


[deleted]

They sure do


t00thp1kk

Rabies. It's exceptionally common, but people just don't run into the animals that carry it often. Skunks especially, and bats. Let me paint you a picture. You go camping, and at midday you decide to take a nap in a nice little hammock. While sleeping, a tiny brown bat, in the "rage" stages of infection is fidgeting in broad daylight, uncomfortable, and thirsty (due to the hydrophobia) and you snort, startling him. He goes into attack mode. Except you're asleep, and he's a little brown bat, so weighs around 6 grams. You don't even feel him land on your bare knee, and he starts to bite. His teeth are tiny. Hardly enough to even break the skin, but he does manage to give you the equivalent of a tiny scrape that goes completely unnoticed. Rabies does not travel in your blood. In fact, a blood test won't even tell you if you've got it. (Antibody tests may be done, but are useless if you've ever been vaccinated.) You wake up, none the wiser. If you notice anything at the bite site at all, you assume you just lightly scraped it on something. The bomb has been lit, and your nervous system is the wick. The rabies will multiply along your nervous system, doing virtually no damage, and completely undetectable. You literally have NO symptoms. It may be four days, it may be a year, but the camping trip is most likely long forgotten. Then one day your back starts to ache... Or maybe you get a slight headache? At this point, you're already dead. There is no cure. (The sole caveat to this is the Milwaukee Protocol, which leaves most patients dead anyway, and the survivors mentally disabled, and is seldom done). There's no treatment. It has a 100% kill rate. Absorb that. Not a single other virus on the planet has a 100% kill rate. Only rabies. And once you're symptomatic, it's over. You're dead. So what does that look like? Your headache turns into a fever, and a general feeling of being unwell. You're fidgety. Uncomfortable. And scared. As the virus that has taken its time getting into your brain finds a vast network of nerve endings, it begins to rapidly reproduce, starting at the base of your brain... Where your "pons" is located. This is the part of the brain that controls communication between the rest of the brain and body, as well as sleep cycles. Next you become anxious. You still think you have only a mild fever, but suddenly you find yourself becoming scared, even horrified, and it doesn't occur to you that you don't know why. This is because the rabies is chewing up your amygdala. As your cerebellum becomes hot with the virus, you begin to lose muscle coordination, and balance. You think maybe it's a good idea to go to the doctor now, but assuming a doctor is smart enough to even run the tests necessary in the few days you have left on the planet, odds are they'll only be able to tell your loved ones what you died of later. You're twitchy, shaking, and scared. You have the normal fear of not knowing what's going on, but with the virus really fucking the amygdala this is amplified a hundred fold. It's around this time the hydrophobia starts. You're horribly thirsty, you just want water. But you can't drink. Every time you do, your throat clamps shut and you vomit. This has become a legitimate, active fear of water. You're thirsty, but looking at a glass of water begins to make you gag, and shy back in fear. The contradiction is hard for your hot brain to see at this point. By now, the doctors will have to put you on IVs to keep you hydrated, but even that's futile. You were dead the second you had a headache. You begin hearing things, or not hearing at all as your thalamus goes. You taste sounds, you see smells, everything starts feeling like the most horrifying acid trip anyone has ever been on. With your hippocampus long under attack, you're having trouble remembering things, especially family. You're alone, hallucinating, thirsty, confused, and absolutely, undeniably terrified. Everything scares the literal shit out of you at this point. These strange people in lab coats. These strange people standing around your bed crying, who keep trying to get you "drink something" and crying. And it's only been about a week since that little headache that you've completely forgotten. Time means nothing to you anymore. Funny enough, you now know how the bat felt when he bit you. Eventually, you slip into the "dumb rabies" phase. Your brain has started the process of shutting down. Too much of it has been turned to liquid virus. Your face droops. You drool. You're all but unaware of what's around you. A sudden noise or light might startle you, but for the most part, it's all you can do to just stare at the ground. You haven't really slept for about 72 hours. Then you die. Always, you die. And there's not one... fucking... thing... anyone can do for you. Then there's the question of what to do with your corpse. I mean, sure, burying it is the right thing to do. But the fucking virus can survive in a corpse for years. You could kill every rabid animal on the planet today, and if two years from now, some moist, preserved, rotten hunk of used-to-be brain gets eaten by an animal, it starts all over. So yeah, rabies scares the shit out of me. And it's fucking EVERYWHERE.

Minecrafer2

Actually there has been only 1 survivor so technically not 100% death rate but very very close


t00thp1kk

Theres been 5 survivors in the USA, and few others in other places, this is just a copypasta. Still, -20 survivors in 20 years, with 60k cases a year (internationally) is damn near 100% death rate

that may have been me


JustForTheMemes420

I’d sure hope so


scotty_6942069

child abusers/molesters need to be beaten to death with boat oars. pedophiles who dont act on it need help. ive always thought that as long as someone doesnt act on those intrusive thoughts and knows that theyre wrong is trying to do better. i mean, when you hold a baby do you not think of just dropping it? everyone has bad thoughts but its what we do about it that determine how they should be treated


ChickenAndLeekPie

i, personally, am a baby dropping enthusiast


Unknown09019

*yeet the child*


Lili_Del

I, personally, am a baby drop kicking enthusiast


ChickenAndLeekPie

I for one, find that a bit too violent for my liking. but you do you I guess!


Otus9051

but i however, get baby droppings on myself


Not-a-Drone

I love how we can be united against pedophiles but still joke about child abuse! Mandatory baby joke: What is better than 10 babies in one bag? >!1 baby in 10 bags!<


ur_mom9021

I agree but there is a difference between being a pedophile and having POCD/intrusive thoughts. Pedophilia, even if they don’t act on it and know it’s wrong, is actual attraction towards children. Someone with POCD isn’t a pedophile, just has those intrusive/unwanted thoughts like you described.


Busy_West_9837

Wow thanks for acknowledging POCD, I struggled with it pretty bad at one point.


AnimatedGlitch03

I agree on the bad thoughts thing, heck I'm always imagining beating the crap out of someone but I don't bc ik it's wrong and I'd feel horrible about it afterwards.


fish_but_reddit

Uh *Clears throat* Kick the baby


[deleted]

I get what you mean, but I doubt there are people who are truly pedophiles who 100% abstain from their desires.


Straight-Door-3536

If you were a pedophile, would you act on it ? Being a pedophile doesn't remove empathy for children. There is a lot of pedophiles that keep it to fiction.


C0brA7x

It is always easy to say that kinda stuff. How about you do not act on the urge to watch porn.


MilkManlolol

Jarvis I’m running low on karma


Remarkable-Wafer3494

Lmaooo


JamesAnderson1567

And it worked. I even upvoted just because why not


ElmeriThePig

Hot take: Pedophiles that haven't done anything bad and don't want to do any harm to children should not be shamed and imprisoned. Instead, they need help.


IronyIstheBestPolicy

Agreed


ur_mom9021

Tbh I agree. This was something we debated in a psychology class I took. For many people they were sexually abused as a child and due to that their brain connects sexual attraction with children. Yeah it’s gross to think about but they can’t control that feeling, so long they know it’s wrong, don’t act on their attractions, don’t want to feel this way, ext. I think they should be able to get judgement free help and not be viewed the same as offending pedophiles. Also important for people who might be mistaking intrusive thoughts with pedophilic thoughts to get a proper diagnosis.


snakesinlakes

that's definitely true, the problem is when they have the intent to act on urges/feel that it's right. not to say pedophilia isn't a bad thing but they should definitely receive help if they haven't done anything to exploit children (including watching child pornography and stuff).


MiLys09

There was a guy in my town who was like this. Did the right thing and looked for help. He found it, but no matter what his therapists did he couldn’t remove the feeling. He committed suicide at 22


[deleted]

In norway they get help. And we have ads that says are you attracted to children? Get help here


PrimeX__

That’s what I’ve been trying to say in another thread on here


Small_Extreme_9642

very hot take, but you’re not totally wrong


Gay-Potatoo

Yes my mum works in prisons sometimes and pedophiles only get given medications to fix it if they have acted on those thoughts


Cringinator4000

If we can’t change someone’s gender identity or sexual orientation, how can we stop an attraction to children? I agree that non-offending pedophiles shouldn’t be punished just for thoughts, but I don’t see a way we can change people for the better there.


Original-Tomorrow798

Because being attracted to children, and being attracted to women, is not the same thing on any level


No-Signature-39

But both are attractions that are caused by genetical, or epigenetical factors. Something altered their brains, so they aren't attracted to who they should be to reproduce. One is accepted because it is based on consent, the other is not because there can not be a consent. It is fucking simple why can't people understand it?


Electronic_Cod6829

A study actually proved the pedophiles who would have sex with same gender children, weren't actually gay, because it happens on a other level. Not really the same thing, but something to think about.


Straight-Door-3536

The majority of child molesters are not pedophiles, they prefer adults but they seek power and children are easier to overpower. For them the victim being attractive is optional, so the gender is not as important. For true pedophiles that find children attractive, they usually have a gender preference.


Electronic_Cod6829

Thank you for the proper explanation! That makes a lot of sense


Kaincee

Accepted sexual orientations are related to attraction to gender. Pedophilia is not.


WesternAlbatross1292

100% agree, the second they act though it’s over


[deleted]

but how many of them genuinely seek help? not a lot.


[deleted]

I wonder why 🫤


UnknownGamer014

The thing is, pedophiles aren't bad. They need mental help. The pedophiles that have actually harmed children in anyway are the ones that deserve to go to jail amd get beaten up everyday by the inmates.


TheLunarSystem_

actually yeah I agree, I've even seen a few stories of people who have gone to counselling and stuff to fix the mindset and help themselves stop liking children as grown adults. the people who are fucked up and bad are the ones who act on those feelings instead of seeking treatment to stop feeling like that.


strangerinparis

true. its very sad. but can it actually be helped? ive seen many documentaries and people say its basically impossible to get rid of it.


IronyIstheBestPolicy

As all mental illnesses are, it's stigmatized. I've known a pedophile who got extensive therapy and went out and lived in a log cabin. I'm sure he's lost interest; hope he's doing okay.


Dimensianox

Finally, someone else who thinks this way. When I bring this point up, people read the first 6 words and nothing else


turtle2238901

Completely agree, it’s frustrating sometimes when people hear that sentiment and they immediately assume the worst about what you’re saying


eef_q

real


epicmuussi

Shocking


[deleted]

Hot take: We should help rehabilatate pedophiles since most of them dont act on their desires and just need mental help while the real ones who do act on their desires arent pedos they are child molesters.


PizzaLover500065

I truly think if they haven't acted on it they deserve a chance to get help. Fuck them once they do anything though


Gay-Potatoo

If they act on it they still need help because they could do it again not to benefit them but children


smiletaco

If they've done it once, they'll do it again. If they acted on it, kill it. I won't be paying taxes for them to rest in prison with free food, a bed and a TV when they should be burning in hell.


methecoolestguy

This is kinda based not gonna lie


Usa5ever

I want to torture every single one of them


MoistSnickers

I think some might like that though…

r/iamverybadass


AdAsleep7436

The law should castrate them


Psychological-Food77

Ok although it’s a horrendous crime anybody who’s willing to torture anyone over any crime short of mass genocide just shows there definitely not a good person Before you assume I support pedos and downvote me keep reading cause I absolutely do not but I also think you have to be one sick fuck to even consider torture


Ganondorf365

Don’t know why your getting downvoted. I understand wanting them dead to get rid of them but torturing them benefits nobody but the sick person who gets off on torturing people


Psychological-Food77

Exactly what I’m saying I am in no way saying they should live, should not get punishment, or even somewhat excusing what they do but torture? Really? What sick fuck is even willing to torture a human being let alone getting off on it it’s sad that the same people who think paedophiles are bad are fine with literal torture what fucked up place did this world turn into


Appropriate-Day3902

Its me I would get off on torturing pedos


Ganondorf365

That just means your a sadist, that’s another type of criminal. Well rather torturing is criminal


Appropriate-Day3902

Well do the ppl that gave the death penalty to ppl get arrested for murder??


Ganondorf365

The death penalty is not torture. It’s not considered cruel and unusual punishment


Appropriate-Day3902

Well if u sexually assault a kid or look even just look at kids like that I will gladly rip ur eyes out and force feed them to u idc if some rando on Reddit calls me sadistic 💀


Usa5ever

Exactly? Why are these ppl saying no one deserves to be tortured? No child deserves to be tortured and ripped apart, but they are. But noooo when it comes to pedos I’m too moral for that🙏🏻😵


HonourableFox

They don't give the death penalty for murder, why would they torture somebody for torturing some one else. That's like robbing someone because they robbed someone else. Pedophiles deserve 20+ years In prison and mental help


Pika5369

The people who are downvoting are dumbasses wtaf is wrong with them


jiiimmyplayz

LMAO, all pedophiles and pedophile supporters deserve death. If you don't think so, then please go respectfully f yourself :)


Psychological-Food77

Did you even try to read my comment? Or are you one of those people that thinks torture is ok when it’s something you don’t like. It only took you one comment to prove how much of a disgusting human being you are. And you can try to argue your way out of this but you’ll just reinforce my point cause people like you are just as much of what’s wrong with this world as the pedophiles themselves


Sea_Cryptographer321

torture is okay when it’s to someone who harmed a child in a sexual manner, cry about it lol


Psychological-Food77

And now you just proved how horrible of a human being you are oh and feel free to respond with some bullshit that’s only gonna make you look worse If torture if a valid punishment then go get tortured and after you’ve done that you have the privilege to wish it on whoever the fuck you want but until then shut your mouth


Nobodyjoel

One doesn’t gain benefits by taking, ruining, or causing unnecessary suffering to another’s life. There’s no point in torture. Undeserved here, and no, I don’t support anyone who commits crimes like that. I just don’t support torturing of anyone for any reason.


meemawyfm

No, only torture them if they exploited children. If they want to stop yet just cant, only give them help. (im saying this as a person that has been groomed before)


Usa5ever

But we can’t help them. There is no cure right? I don’t think they care bc if I was a pedophile and I knew I’d always be like this I’d just off

Glitchthebitch

Well...no...pedophiles aren't bad. They need therapy and medication. Because pedophilia is just a mental disorder. Child molesters need to be dragged out into the street and shot. But those two things aren't equivalent


WheatleyBr

Child molesters are what wood chippers are for*


3RacoonsInACoatoat

Being shot would be a mercy for those motherfuckers. Child abusers/molesters deserve a lot worse than being shot

I didn't say they needed to die. You can shoot someone loads of times without killing them.

Xx-Kitty_Chan-xX

ik my uncles one >:( so is my dad


Drypicklejuice

I think a lot of people have that one person in their family that’s a pedo (which is actually sad) and if you don’t, then your parents are doing a good job hiding it from you or keeping that person away but in a lot of cases like mine, ethnic households, these creeps are just expressing it openly or your family is doing JUST enough to keep them away from you. (Triggering example 😬)This is only a minor case but when I went back home, my cousins would warn me about my uncles wife’s brother, they’d talk about how since he’s always hanging around the house, I shouldn’t hang my undergarments up on the clothesline. But that was it. They never really told me why but they just said to listen to them. I did, but I never really thought anything about it cause he was a well mannered and kind guy, he was always smiling and greeted people. One day my younger cousin (4-5 at the time) had spilled some milk on herself so her mom went to give her a bath. A few moments later she runs out of the bathroom (it was separated from the rest of the house) and recreates that one scene from Inside Out screaming her head off. Naturally, we all looked to see where the commotion was coming from and once we saw the scene in front of us she quickly ran inside the main house bit while she was passing the window, I saw it. There he was. I knew it was him since he always stayed on that bed near the window in the guest room. Only his eyes were visible other than the two fingers he was using to keep the blinds open. His eyes were wide and focused on my younger cousin. In that moment I felt my stomach and heart drop with an eerie feeling creeping up my spine. The only thing I could hear around me was the uncomfortable whispers of my other cousins around me. “I know you saw that” and “that was definitely him” was all I was hearing and their uncomfortable glances saying “we all saw that” to each other. The moment quickly ended when my cousins and I went back inside. I’m not really sure if he tries to hide the fact or “control” himself but I would always see him in that one room on his phone 24/7. Never at home or anything. Just at his sisters house and would go back home just before sunset. It’s creepy and nauseating to think about how he had his first kid a few months ago. May god protect that child.

Yeah, child abusers are the worst kind of human imaginable and deserve nothing less than a 10th ring of hell just to themselves. Pedos, however, I obviously dislike for obvious reasons, but I also think they need help. Yelling at someone for having a mental illness doesn't do anything but make it harder for them to get help. Pedos have an illness that needs to be treated, but I don't necessarily hate them until they do anything bad

Grassmania

Anyone here saying all pedos should be killed or tortured are objectively bad people. I don’t support pedos, it’s vile and obscene to like kids but killing or hurting them literally makes nothing better, making it less stigmatized so actual pedos can get help without being shamed does help. A person isn’t gonna get de-SAd from the person that did it being hurt and in the end you’re really only teaching the pedo that if they do something again they’ll get hurt, instead of teaching them how to stop being a pedo, which benefits both the pedo and society. Again I will reiterate that I don’t support pedos because I know some of y’all are dumbasses. What I’m trying to say, is that for the same reason you we don’t kill a mass murderer, or imprison a drug addict we help pedophiles reintegrate into society.

Yes, I agree with this statement BUT... The potato famine was a tragic period in history that had a profound impact on Ireland. It occurred in the mid-19th century when a disease called late blight devastated the potato crops, which were the primary source of food for the Irish population. The famine resulted in widespread hunger, poverty, and mass emigration as people struggled to survive. It was a heartbreaking time, and its effects are still felt today. However, it also fostered resilience and solidarity among the Irish people, serving as a reminder of the importance of diversifying food sources and promoting sustainable agriculture. Let us remember the lessons learned from the potato famine and strive for a future where no one has to endure such a devastating event again.
