apologies if this isn't the sort of question you're equipped to answer, but would you mind explaining why prostasia is bad? i don't know much about them, and the closest thing i could find to a decent source was also full of "loli is dangerous" nonsense (and some weirdly petty criticisms of random things their members have said).
1. They associate with (and sometimes employ) convicted sexual offenders, most commonly child abusers, yet they claim to support victims. They also associate with James Cantor, a known transphobes who wants to remove trans and nonbinary people from the LGBT+ community, and instead replace them with pedophiles, zoophiles, and necrophiles.
2. I have seen one case where Prostasia aided a child predator in getting a job as a lawyer for child sexual abuse cases. There was an article published by said lawyer, which I’ll have to find again, as I honestly can’t remember exact details at the moment. If I remember correctly, they had pulled some strings to help this person avoid legal repercussions, then paid for his schooling.
3. They have previously advocated for the use of “ethical csem” to prevent offenses. The article where they claimed support of this seems to have been taken down, but they were discussing using images of children who are currently adults (such as baby pictures, or csem that was obtained by victims who escaped the abuse since then), and using images of children “with their consent.” If you mention this to the founder, he claims that by “ethical csem” he was talking about lolisho. This is a lie.
4. The founder himself once attempted to harass me on twitter because I mentioned this stuff on my account. Blocking him prevented the harassment from ever REALLY starting, but I later discovered that he had been name-searching to find my posts (as I frequently talk about Fanexus, an upcoming site that Prostasia gave “legal advice” to regarding child exploitation).
5. One of Prostasia’s associates claimed that teleiophilia (the attraction to adults) was more dangerous than pedophilia, and claimed that pedophiles were the most oppressed minority in western society.
6. Prostasia advocates for introducing minors 14 and younger to the concepts of pedophilia and zoophilia. Not as a safety precaution, but to “educate” them on what those words “actually mean” in an attempt to help minors “discover themselves.” This is a VERY COMMON tactic the MAP community uses to recruit minors who are queer, mentally ill, neurodivergent, and/or struggling with intrusive thoughts. This is what MAPs commonly do to create AAMs (adult-attracted minors) for their community to groom.
Basically, Prostasia claims to be a research-based csa prevention organization, but it’s all a front. Based on what I’ve seen from THEIR OWN articles and associations, as well as their behavior towards me as a CSA survivor, Prostasia’s real goal is to justify and protect sexual abusers. They are an active danger to children and abuse survivors.
Prostasia’s founder has been stalking me since at least october 2020 (possibly longer) and block evading to send me vague threats. I had to delete my curiouscat over anons people, including prostasia’s founder, had been sending me
