>>512254465It used to be that there was a slow gradient of responsibility that was laid upon people as they grew up, so that, during the teens, you would learn how to function in the real world and be able to think and act normally and understand the world around you. You'd start learning about the differences between men and women in your early teens, you'd start taking on chores as preparation for a job, you might even get a job as early as 14, you'd be learning home economics in school, you might even participate in the family business. You'd start going on dates to prepare for social interaction. Then when year 18 hits, you were more or less in the same environment, just with another step into adulthood.
Now, however, modern pedo hysteria has forcibly shunted everything on one side or the other of the 18 barrier. The natural end result of this is (or will be) a padded room bubble-wrapped childhood where nothing bad ever exists or happens or is witnessed, followed by a sudden, jarring, hard drop directly onto the rocks of reality overnight on the 18th birthday where suddenly, (and importantly, all at once), you are confronted with the reality of the world, and now you have to pay taxes, sign up for the draft, get a job, move out, etc. All at once. And people wonder why zoomers try to cling to childhood well into their 20s and 30s.

They want to make "pedo" as harmless an insult as "gay" or "nazi" or "racist" have become - by overusing it and over-applying it to everything.
