I know it is not a valid distinction to people on here and in the general public
That many csa perpetrators are not what would technically or clinically be considered pedophiles and their abuse is out of opportunity
And They would say child abusers are pedophiles and I totally agree w them
But if you are imploring, like I was.. kind of rhetorically, even tho I was using the wrong terms and concepts and I blame the anti pedo blogs I was reading bc it’s what they were saying and I assumed they were correct
If you are Imploring individual sexual deviants to stop doing whatever makes them think they are attracted to children
Bc they have to believe they are to know they need to stop
If they are doing anything that is attraction to children they need to stop
And you are telling them they need to take all precautions to stay away from children
Even if they successfully stop reproducing activity that is attraction to children they still need to stay away from them
that was all I wanted to say even if I used the wrong words bc I was just using what I saw on anti pedo blogs not knowing it was wrong
If you are saying that and establishing those requirements in the name of reducing child abuse (and harm to society)
Then ur not really addressing the child abuse that happens out of opportunity by ppl who are not considered attracted to children
I know that distinction isn’t valid on here and I don’t disagree w it so i wish I didn’t even bother mentioning it but I did mention that that article also says child abuse happens bc of opportunity (power position over the child) and alienation and only socialism can change that society wide condition
It was absolutely not saying that pedos or abusers have a place in socialist organization and I absolutely did not mean that and am really upset of being accused of saying pedos can change and other insane shit that isn’t anything I’ve ever thought or meant
That might not be about me bc i never said that but if she’s twisting the fact I said NO COLLECTIVISM FOR PEDOS while saying they should do this totally individual thing - stay away from kids and don’t reproduce their attraction to children
Admittedly I also said get treatment bc all the anti pedo shit I was seeing said they HAVE to be in treatment to be considered actually being proactive to be “non offending”
BUT IDC REALLY I’M NOT ATTACHED I WAS JUST SAYIN THAT BC I ASSUMED IT WAS WHAT WAS ESTABLISHED TO BE CORRECT
It was from Like one day of looking at anti pedo blogs and tags it was w little exposure to these discussions if treatment is a bad idea and I agree, after more thinking and research, that it is
Then idc that’s not the important part of anything I was saying and I really don’t think it was even worth mentioning
“The role of opportunity in sexual offending against children
It is also important to recognise that not all child sex offenders feel driven or compelled to sexually abuse children. In fact, opportunity can play a key role in the commission of sexual offences against children. As Wortley and Smallbone (2006) argue, research has indicated that situational and environmental factors can play a key role in sexual offending against children. Smallbone and Wortley’s (2001) own research on child sex offenders found, for example:
a late onset of offending behaviour (37% were aged 31 to 40 years);
a low incidence of chronic sexual offending (less than one-quarter had previous convictions for sexual offences);
a high incidence of previous non-sexual offending (approximately 60% had convictions for non-sexual offences);
a low incidence of stranger abuse (94% abused their own child or a child they already knew);
a low incidence of networking among offenders (only about 8% had talked to other offenders);
a low incidence of child pornography use (approximately 10% had used child pornography); and
a low incidence of paraphilic interests (very small proportions could have been diagnosed with other sexually deviant interests such as voyeurism or sexual sadism; Wortley & Smallbone 2006).”

What do you think about a high incidence of previous non sexual crime and late onset of offense? Does this sound like people in a high status in society ??? W control over their lives and behavior? Or people who are probably regressing in these respects?
I honestly don’t even think this is worth discussing and if I knew it would be so grossly distorted I wouldn’t have mentioned it on my blog No one reads but i just did bc I saw it and it reminded me of what I was thinking
About if they can stop reproducing whatever behavior makes them think they are attracted to children and I saw the anti pedo blogs saying they have to do that and I was like o I already was thinking that so I said it in tags just bc like If I knew it would be so distorted in such a gross way I can’t even begin To understand how or why she does that
Idk if the things she says ppl say are all like that or if that wasn’t abt me acknowledging I read in a socialist article that abuse including child abuse is a result of alienation and a position of power over children ie opportunity
And that isn’t reflected in telling individual pedos to take precautions not to abuse ie stay away from Kids
And stop reproducing the behavior which makes them attracted to children or whatever idk how to say what I was thinking and it was just a thought
I had had and thought they had a word for it but it’s wrong I’m sorry? It was the first day I saw those blogs
So articles like the socialist explanations of sexual violence say these are highly alienated disempowered individuals and I personally wonder if sexuality is a symptom of that but that’s not even worth talking about if people are going to have issues w understanding it and they will bc they don’t don’t actually ever read about sexuality from what I can tell
So I wonder if being highly sexualized in their abject state isn’t coincidental
this is the article I referred to in the tags When I was like ok there’s telling pedos to stay away from kids and stop being attracted to children
And stop doing anything that reproduces that “delusion” tho I wouldn’t say that now bc I see why people say that’s the wrong thing to say but I hadn’t seen anyone say anything about it yet then
And I am able to adjust my views/understanding to new info and that’s what I did as soon as I saw someone saying it’s wrong to use those kinds of words/ideas re pedophilia AND THATS FINE I AGREE
so when I say ok, pedos should stay away from children, not reproduce the behavior that makes them attracted to children, and not make a big deal of it ie shut up, and don’t look to collectivism either, THEN THERES THIS OTHER SHIT ABOUT ALIENATION AND CHILD ABUSE IN THIS ARTICLE WHICH NONE OF THIS ADDRESSES
what I am NOT doing is saying pedos should look to socialist organization or have a place in socialist organization
What I am saying is i recently posted an article which says other things about child abuse and capitalism whose points are important and not reflected in these demands
And some of this abuse is done by people who are literally the opposite of people who can know they need to stay away from children bc they’re pedos bc their abuse of children is bc they are around them
Like it is an issue of acting like this is exclusively a problem of the individual (pedophilia as an innate condition but I don’t know what I think about that vs it being socially constructed, but I don’t think it is a naturally occurring phenomenon ie not at all a social product, like I don’t think any paraphilia is)
Or um a product of capitalist and class society and alienation etc
And I actually dc bc I don’t see how it matters other than it being a question of reality
But not one worth addressing as such tbh
Is my opinion on it at this time
But I didn’t mean anything sinister by it jfc
I was just acknowledging the limitations of suggesting these purely personal individual steps that pedos should take to be “non offending”, including staying away from children
And I had just read and linked to an article which says there’s a lot more to child abuse than that and it’s alienation from capitalism whose only solution is socialism and I didn’t mean anything by it other than acknowledging that
That this purely individual thing I am trying to articulate - pedo negativity - by staying away from children and not doing activities that are attraction to children, thoughts included
Isn’t discussing capitalism’s role in creating conditions of child abuse due to alienation etc
what I have never said and never meant is that a. pedos can change, in general or so that b. Any kind of organization should accept them in any capacity, in general or bc of some personal growth
Like wtf kind of assumption is that
I was acknowledging that people say capitalism has a role in child abuse, alienation from capitalist society contributes to child abuse, and that can’t just be addressed by telling pedos to stay away from kids, and them doing it bc they are dedicated to “not offending” which they should be
but like Lenin says this is all conjecture so I don’t see the point in really going into these things and i wouldn’t if my mentioning it once or twice in a poor way bc of my ignorance on the subject - I’d never say it the wrong way if I knew it was the wrong way to say it - didn’t get twisted into something it never was and idk how to fix that bc it’s just not anything I believe
I guess it does address the issue in a way that attacks bourgeois society
Which not blaming bourgeois society and its alienation doesn’t and can never do but like I said I don’t really care tbh i would rather talk abt something else
And ppl who do talk abt this don’t talk about it out of actual desire to understand child abuse either imo from my experience
on any side
so it’s kind of like ok idc I guess
As for the admittedly convoluted way I worded the way pedos should manage their behavior, I didn’t have the right words for what I had in mind but hadn’t seen expressed bc i don’t usually read pedo discourse on that level and I was going by what I was seeing on the dedicated anti pedo blogs and tags
Which turned out to be bad and wrong and now that I know better the scope of discussion and disagreements on these phrasings I would say something better but the idea was only that they should stay away from children and also not do anything which reproduces their attraction to children from thoughts to media consumption
If using words like delusion and suggesting they should be in treatment which all the blogs and posts I saw at that time, admittedly a limited amount bc I had just perused the tags and blogs to get an idea of what ppl say
All them were saying that
If that’s wrong then I apologize and i wish I hadn’t been so hasty to comment on something w so limited exposure to the discussion but I can’t help it and i didn’t realize it was that serious
Like I don’t even care about the questions of how bourgeois society contributes to rape and csa besides limiting resources for exit from that situation which allows abusers to hold that dependence over their victims head.
I was trying to sort thru being attacked for shit I would never want to say or never believed but haven’t had a chance to sort thru all the info being said about it and some of it is wrong and presented as professional or whatever
I need time to sort thru everything and I wouldn’t even post the stuff above if she didn’t make Me feel like I had to research this stuff (I don’t know much about it)
And also I had read some criticisms of radical feminism saying alienation causes people to rape and abuse and I was sorting thru that
Plus Lenin says there are all kinds of outrages coming from the disintegrating petty bourgeoisie and that is part of the way capitalism works etc
I was trying to sort out all the info before I could decide what I would want to say about it and what I wouldn’t and i wouldn’t have even mentioned this other stuff about opportunity offenders if she didn’t make me feel guilty for pointing out that you can’t just say “pedos stay away from kids” WHICH THEY SHOULD AND THAT IS SACROSANCT but what about many offenses being opportunity offenses which mean the person doesn’t think of themselves as a pedo who needs to stay away from kids (all pedos should think of themselves that way), but many offenses happen bc the abuser has access to kids ie is around kids in the first place. Etc
BUT I REALLY DONT CARE. THIS ISNT A TOPIC I WANT TO ARGUE ABOUT EXCEPT WHATEVER ANTI PEDO PEOPLE HAVE DECIDED IS NECESSARY TO SAY
but still I was trying to sort out all the new info I had read and stuff.. still didn’t get a chance to sort it out. Was still trying to deal w the trauma of this situation happening to me which I can’t deal w and won’t . Etc.
Having sorted it out more, I wouldn’t even mention the stats on opportunity offenders relative to the stuff I read, criticism of feminism which doesn’t account for alienation as a cause of rape etc
I probably would ignore all that.
I don’t think everything needs to be politicized. And never have. But I still sort thru info
I’ve always looked to this passage for how rapists pedos and adults who hang around kids for no reason should be dealt w - shot on the spot
all I want is for no one to ever have to experience csa or rape and that’s all I ever wanted
I don’t think minors can consent to sex
I wouldn’t try to politicize that issue at all and never have, that blog just came up and I started reading it and mentioned what I read on it and mentioned recently reading an article about sexual abuse and capitalism which also talks about csa and I didnt mean anything by any of it and she came along and started scaring me and all of this is bc of her accusations and feeling scared and wanting to say I don’t believe any of the horrible things she’s accusing me of believing (it’s my thoughts I know. I know I’ve literally never felt sorry for them or anything thats just never been me not once in my life. I only ever felt deep grief for their victims and that’s the only ones I’ve ever cared about like a normal person. I can’t even imagine any of the crazy shit these people talk about)
I wouldn’t politicize it and I wasn’t trying to. Now I’ve read a lot more information about everything and I’ve gotten a better sense of what I would say and wouldn’t say w better knowledge where before it was like a black box and i wouldn’t politicize it before after or in between!! I’ve never had any desire to do that but I guess I know more now and feel the same way - none of this is relevant. It’s like this I guess
It’s all a panic or trying to figure out what’s what bc of her crazy accusations I could never imagine much less believe!!!
I wouldn’t have read any of these articles about pedos i wouldn’t have watched the documentary about them if it wasn’t for her scaring me
I know more about them now but I’m pissed bc I didn’t need to learn More and i don’t want to know more
All it is is traumatic why can’t people who want to learn more do it and I will listen to what anti pedo people say and that’s all i care about
I would never argue w them and have no desire to fact check them Or anything like that anything anti pedo people say is fine to me but now I see even they lie and say deceptive things that’s why I got so terrified when i saw the popular anti pedo blog I was reading was saying fucked up shit I’d never want to be associated w. I couldn’t imagine that but now I know.
