Food for thought, certainly, and a bit of an explanation for what's going on.

All you need to do for a conspiracy theory is come up with all possible conflicts of interest and write a story surrounding what isn't disclosed as fact.

You would have thought being against pedophilia would be a bi-partisan issue but here we are.

Because it's guaranteed to get 98% of folk's blood boiling. Guess who the other 02% are?

This is why the right-wing is obsessed with pedophilia.
Because they can label the left as not being concerned with it.

It is like the "would you rather punch a baby or kick a baby?" bullshit.

Pedophiles are an easy target because their position is indefensible.
Anyone who champions their destruction is given credibility and love.
The fact that pedophilia and "corrupting children" is then labeled on to LGBTQ+ activity and anyone who tries to point out the bigotry at work is then asked, "Oh, you don't think pedophilia is a problem?"

It is asinine.
Taking a stance against the exploitation of children is political tee ball.

I believe they see it as something they don't like about liberals.

It usually has more to do with hypocrisy from politicians or celebrities who preach against them as they see it.

One thing suburban women really, really don't want to hear is that the people most likely to beat, abduct, or sexually abuse suburban children are suburban men. It's more comforting, in a perverse way, to imagine it's a shadowy cabal of cannibalistic pedophiles.

Please stop.

MAP's operate openly on twitter. You're more likely to be banned for being a Trump supporter than a pedophile. That and the Cuties debacle show the pedo support movement is definitely real, and intellectually, it has the same root and arguments as the LGBT+. Makes sense, a lot of the founders of the LGBT+ movement were or defended pedophilia.

If you sexually abuse a child you are, be definition, a pedophile.
