Sure, but any argument that includes the words 'children' and 'suffering' can be accused of pedophrasty, since there's no way to divorce those concepts from emotion

What the fuck does "pedophrasty" mean?

What the fuck does "pedophrasty" mean?

I made it up based on pedophrast. The practice of using children to make an argument have an appeal to emotions when it wouldn't otherwise have a good grounding.

e.g., "Immigration is bad. What if it was your child who got killed by an immigrant gang member?"

What the fuck does "pedophrasty" mean?

Apparently if you bring up children when talking about the separation and detainment of children, anything you say is invalid because it amounts to pedophrastry - apparently meaning something like using children to beg for money or use as an appeal to emotion, although I have not found any usage of the word outside of tabloid articles and twitter.

So to reiterate: I take your child, you ask me to give it back. I call you a pedophrast for bringing up children, thus winning the argument and archiving moral highground.

If this doesn't make sense to you, it's probably because you're not an idiot.
