> This retarded idea that some people have that a guy who fucks adult women couldn't possibly want to fuck a kid
Good point.
We need to whittle this down on two sides:
> 1) sexual desire for youth is more common than is generally accepted
> 2) sexual desire for youth doesn't necessarily imply a desire for sexual violence, even if it does happen, even if there are dangerous sociopaths
and
> If you wanted to control a dangerous sociopath who would tell any lie to the American public just to butter their bread, getting a vid of them actually violently raping a kid would be a reliable method
meanwhile
> this probably almost never happens
Stallman defended Minsky, saying something like
> even if he had sex with that 17 year old girl, it was probably not forcible rape
The fact is, probably even if Epstein's blackmail is true, most of the encounters were at least superficially consensual. We can argue about what consent means under these conditions.
But it has little or nothing to do with your vision of insane sadistic rapists who hurt children out of a need for power.
Which is why I connected it to the larger mythology of pizzagate.
If we could be honest about how men have sex with minors, maybe this mythology, and the conditions for blackmail wouldn't exist. And we would get the bad guys, and harm reasonable people less.
