I’m not talking about queer people getting called groomers. I know why that’s happening. I’m referring more to a more general fear of pedophilia instead of just repackaged homophobia.

I feel like I’m hearing about it like every other week. For instance, parent bloggers noticing that their engagement skyrockets when they post their kids eating hotdogs or in swimwear. Another example is an increasing trend of people on Pinterest creating walls and albums labelled “hot kids.”

I know that elite freaks are all pedos, but is pedophilia an actually growing problem among regular people? It seems to me like when suburbanites freak out about any other thing like BLM or immigrants marching through and razing their communities. Or the crime freakout in the 70s/80s.

Am I being naive and we actually need to be on high alert?

Most people in prison for pedophilia are known to the parents. They’re usually the kids best friends, always there to play or lend a hand with childcare.

No, they are not Jewish people in positions of power, that’s just an anti-Semitic trope you picked up, probably by reading QAnon or adjacent material.

Lmao okay.

Weird how the most people in prison for it are parents while Catholic priests and American politicians (neither are Jewish btw) generally face no consequences after being outed.

People with power don’t go to prison.

It feels like serious bad faith to say that “Catholic Church is riddled with pedophiles” is an “anti-Semitic trope” or to suggest that someone posting on a communist message board is “probably” reading “QAnon or adjacent material.”
