Sounds typical, they love manufacturing that kind of misinformation.
What kind of misinformation?
That consenting adult same sex relationships are the "same" as pedophilia, which is a relationship in which one person can't consent to the relationship.
If you push on them hard enough, they always end up back at "Well, the Greeks did both, sooooo, it's all like this, forever." Which is utter BS, and the Greeks definitely didn't see pederasty the same as same-sex relationships, and pederasty was not nearly as widespread as Western religious folks make it seem. There's not a ton of evidence as to how tolerated it was in general, so it seems unlikely to have been the consistent, permitted, and generally culturally acceptable practice that same-sex relations were.
