[@midouban628]

Also just because kids can say "yes" and "no" doesn't mean "consent". Consent in this context only occurs when a person voluntarily agrees to the proposal or desires of another WHILE fully understanding the risks and benefits. This is why attorneys and medical staff before getting your consent signature are required by law to ask do you fully understand everything that was being said/explained; and do you have any questions/concerns.

[@RaiunHana]

As a fellow Singaporean myself, I grew up feeling pretty free actually. It was only around the time when I started learning about our history that I realized that there are laws regarding hate speech towards race and religion (and it is through learning our history that I know why these laws are important for us). Human psychology is weird. For some reason, people seem to place a disproportionately huge amount of importance on race and religion and when people get heated up about these issues, the irrational hatred stirred up in these groups are like no other. Seeing this type of crazy hate, I do understand how things like racial riots and maybe even wars can be started, thus why such laws are needed in many countries. "Oppressive", "dictatorial" are terms that are unfairly used on us and we have been conditioned to accept these terms being used to describe us. Many countries perceived to be free such as Canada have the same laws regarding speech but don't get the same rep as us. Why? Because they're western countries and not asian ones? That said, we may not have true free speech but I've never felt as if I wasn't free enough to say whatever I want to say and also we are so much more free in ways that other countries are not (like the freedom of going out alone whenever we want without fear - for example, think of a petite woman at 2am taking a solo walk in a quiet park / around quiet parts of towns - that can't be done in many countries but I've done this type of stuff for years).

I really think about how this guy could've been a tv star and famous due to his connections, I wonder what he would've been like as a star

[@epic1761]

Metokur gave him the opportunity to admit he was a troll and he said he wasn't, well, case closed.

[@MDOffred]

He's been diagnosed as a narcissist and has been acting horrible to people who have helped, yet there are people who are so blind to give him so much generosity bc he's an "activist". They only have themselves to blame.

[@ZeranZeran]

What he did to the Christian man is awful, but I'm sorry, that man is incredibly ignorant to have done that with 0 research. Christians, more than any other religion, throw money at people without any check or verification "Because god has a plan" - Well was Amos Yee part of God's plan!?

@🎀lolicakes🎀 yes lol it’s called narcissistic personality disorder! It’s a real thing!

[@gm6393]

@just a random legal loli everyone hates narcissism has always been a real disorder, people just use the term interchangeably to mean someone they don’t like.

[@stefanmilicevic5322]

Felt sympathy for him...until he spat in the face of Vincent Law, the kind Christian who bailed him out. May he see the insides of Prison for a long time.

[@samsnothavingit2788]

You felt sympathy for a pedophile ??

[@lavishlavon]

@Faiafokkusu you're up against a sociopath. your efforts would be thwarted & likely blow up in your face. Law was right to take that subhuman to court. otherwise its your word against his in the court of public opinion, a battle you will lose. that creep does not feel sympathy for his victims or remorse for his actions. its only until you threaten his power &/or freedom that he finally submits (to some extent). Law was a saint to drop the suit & settle for a half-ass fake apology. A fool with a kind heart to bail him out in the 1st place.

[@griddycheese]

You should not have felt sympathy for him at any point

[@nowhy6936]

growing up in conservative singapore (the country amos yee was born in), i never really supported amos's statements on lee kuan yew, even though i now understand the viewpoints free speech activists give. but PEDOPHILIA? man, i couldn't imagine amos stooping so low. it's very disappointing, especially given his promising film career. also my parents were afraid i would become just like amos yee, since i had an american accent growing up :

[@thedesensitizedsympathizer5307]

Why does america wish to never cure pedophilia. I BELIEVE that it is possible to cure it, people just dont want to do it.

[@arjunsharma5120]

Im on a similar boat as you as a Singaporean. I'm very pro speech and libertarian in contrast to the government here and whilst I didn't fully agree with his LYK video, I respected the fact that he was using his freedom of speech and was very against the government jailing him for making that video. But as soon I saw him constantly uploading pro-pedophilia commentary I lost the little respect I had for him, complete embarrassment to Singapore honestly

Freedom of speech isn’t the same as freedom of consequence. Yes people are allowed to say the vast majority of things, but when people try to act on threats then that’s when they get in trouble

Christianity was around for thousands of years and even the most powerful empires couldn't erase it, it can survive some 16 year old on the internet sharing his opinion, and I think any human being has the right to criticize their government...

Amos Yee is proof that some people are simply born to be a villain and there's nothing you or anyone can do about it.

Well, Amos might like the 1st amendment but we do have this thing called the 2nd ammendment too... and much as I normally would like to get rid of it, people like this make me a lot more accepting of it.

[@monhi64]

100% and as stupid as it is I feel like I have to bring up I’m not religious. But personally I think the majority of evil people are born evil. Nature vs nurture I believe in all that but the amount of abuse that’s required to turn a genuinely good empathetic person to be evil is so high IMO. Some people just got fucked up brain chemistry and it sends them dopamine when people around them are in pain or whatever it may be

[@Usernamesdontmatter1]

@@noahgray543 why do you want to get rid of an amendment that has actually kept the US from being properly invaded by a fascist military? You do know the reason why the Japanese had no plans to invade the US during WW2 while we had a functioning navy was because behind every blade of grass in America there was possibly a gun. There were plenty of other factors sure but that was a big one. Also want to point out the people who want to get rid of it also want to get rid of publicly funded police. So what happens to us poor folk after you have taken 100% of our defense away? I don't mean to rant about the 2nd amendment when this video is about a shitty pdf-files but you opened the door. People who want it gone completely are people ignorant of even history and are blind to the current state of the world. What do you do when someone bigger than you has a weapon and the police won't protect you? Nothing you die or worse. Simple as that.
