This is just indicative of the hardcore leftist mindset. They've lost their bearings completely when it comes to tolerance because they've spent their entire life living in a society that took over 3000 years to properly form the concepts of independence and freedom, liberty and justice, but were never once walked through it. They do not view the past as centuries of delicate experimentation and work up toward the future, but as the fetid bathwater which if not promptly disposed of, will kill their delicate baby.
But the pedophile. The pedophile has done nothing wrong. The pedophile has oppressed nobody.
Recently I attended a talk on Papua New Guinea by an anthropology teacher. When the conversation turned to tribes which sodomize boys between the age of 7-13 because they don't believe you are born with semen, and you must consume it. It was argued that this was moral because the society does not judge the boys. There are no moral consequences. In fact, since the boys cannot become men without being sodomized, the boys want to have sex
and there stands the grass. Without the conservative, the child would not know anything wrong had happened. The child would not know they are victimized. Society would not judge the child. The crime would not exist if it was not persecuted.
Imagine how many years it took to formulate the idea that a child had agency of it's own that must be protected. That we had an obligation to not brainwash or indoctrinate children politically. That if you groom a child to have sex with them, that is still you taking advantage of them. The idea of someone's formative years as something sacred, disposed of in a blink because otherwise, you would have to criticize other cultures.
And once you permit some pedophilia, how can you fight it elsewhere?
