    I’m not talking about rich and famous self-admitting offenders.

    With famous people, self-admitted, you’d think it would be different. If you rta, it addresses that.

    Eta: with rich and famous, not self-admitted, it’s still difficult. Amber and Johnny, for example.

    Also, how would a child present proof? Maybe they kept silent for weeks, months, years. Or maybe they are a clever, wicked child who was told “no,” and made allegations.

      I’ll say it again: if you don’t care that your leader is a pedophile, then you are a pedophile.

      And the amount of mental gymnastics you are doing to not address this is astounding.

        It’s not. Maybe single issue voters do the mental gymnastics addressed in the articles. Being told to never question authority all one’s life is the issue.

        The thought experiment I presented you was from a CE course for those who work with vulnerable populations.

      Discussing a known pedo and you trot out “maybe those evil kids are to blame”?

      Are you the president of NAMBLA, or just a member?

          No one gives a shit about your post history if you’re defending people who diddle children

          What the fuck is wrong with you?

          You talk about reactionaries when you just deleted their comment in a post where you are doing whataboutism to not address the fact that he is a convicted rapist involved in a pedophile ring? Holy shit…
