the "those 'harmless' long-suffering lonely pedophiles are actively grooming children on the internet" problem: who does youth sexual liberation benefit?
before I get into this here is a screenshot to grab your attention:
this is from the NAMBLA and LGBT Politics section of The International Lesbian and Gay Association’s Suspension from the United Nations, 1993-1994, by Tyler Carson, currently available on outhistory.org. this digital exhibit details how the International Lesbian and Gay Association was expelled from the UN's Economic and Social Council due to the widespread fallout of right-wing news outlets discovering that the North American Man/Boy Love Association, a pedophile advocacy organisation that sought to abolish age of consent laws, was an active part of the ILGA. do any of these points sound familiar?
in light of isuggestforcefem pedophileposting again: it's purposeful that for all that many Woke Pedophile "youthlib" "advocates" talk about youth liberation and child advocacy in tandem with their defence of pedophiles and pedophilia, and for all they are keen to talk about abuse that takes place within the family structure, they never discuss the global epidemic of child abuse via the internet. they advocate for youth liberation on the internet, they encourage children to interact with them while openly out as pedophiles on the internet, and yet there's nary a peep about how easy it is for pedophiles to gain access to children who they happily abuse on the internet and have since the internet's widespread adoption by consumers, nor is there any mention of the physical and mental toll that this takes on child victims of this abuse.
in this post I talk about Tumblr having such a bad CSEM problem in the 2000s to 2010s pre-pornography ban that Apple took the app off the app store. I was groomed by multiple people on this website at that time, specifically adult Homestuck fans because of course they were lol. prior to me using Tumblr I was also a very active ROBLOX child, something that people tend to assume must be anachronistic given old ROBLOX was nowhere near the global player that it was at the time. I thankfully wasn't groomed on there, but I sure knew a whole lot of other kids who were. child safety on ROBLOX is so poor that it has a dedicated Wikipedia page, a Bloomberg feature, and tens to triple digit numbers of lawsuits about how piss poor it is at implementing measures to prevent child grooming across multiple countries. my IRL friends were sexually harassed and coerced by grown men on platforms like kik, like many, many other children.
every website where children gather becomes a platform fondly remembered for fostering children's connections with each other with a big asterisk of "and also lots of us got groomed on there lol." most of us are aware that the adage of "stranger danger" is generally inaccurate given that most children are abused by someone known to them, be it a family member or family friend, but the internet has introduced an entirely new dynamic to the conversation that every pro-pedophile on this website has been eerily silent about.
this is of course because the fact that pedophiles actively and willingly seek out children to abuse on the internet with shocking regularity flies in the face of the "I'm just a humble no-contact minor-attracted person!" image that these people attempt to project. millions of children are abused over the internet every year. pedophiles solicit CSEM from children in exchange for rewards in games. pedophiles send children sexual videos and images (sound familiar?). pedophiles befriend children and then go on to extort them into providing CSEM of themselves by threatening to expose them and their families.
these people are not actually interested in the liberation of children, sexual or non-sexual. as the screenshot above states: the issue is not about allowing children avenues to explore their sexuality. children already do that individually and amongst themselves, and there are many, many people and organisations working towards safe and healthy sex education for children and young people across the globe.
these people are interested in "youth liberation" as a means of gaining sexual access to children for their own gratification. this is not new. I highly recommend looking into pedophile advocacy groups and movements like the pro-pedophile German "new left" (and experiments like purposefully placing children in adoptive homes with pedophiles), French philosophers' petition to get the age of consent abolished in the 70s, and seriously, as linked above, NAMBLA's presence in the International Lesbian and Gay Association and how it led to the association being booted from the United Nations (and how lesbian feminists were key in both criticising NAMBLA and getting them kicked out). please, please, if you are able and willing, if you can deal with the subject matter, take a look at that NAMBLA link there. because again, from the screenshot above
Feminists were also especially skeptical of NAMBLA’s claim that man/boy love was about children’s liberation. Rather, they argued it was about men’s increased sexual access to children.
almost sounds like a parallel of something happening right now... could it be? that'd be crazy...
every single talking point they have about sexual liberation related to children is straight up repackaged NAMBLA talking points. the North American Man/Boy Love Association NAMBLA. the "kicked out of every mainstream gay activist space for supporting the sexual exploitation of children" NAMBLA.
do these sound familiar? it's because people on this website use these points in their posts! the article even highlights how NAMBLA bundled youth liberation points that people would generally find reasonable (e.g. critiques of corporal punishment and familial abuse) with beliefs that served solely to allow adult sexual exploitation of children (e.g. "decriminalizing hustling and commercial sexual relationships", which got them into international recognition in the first place, because efforts against sex tourism and cross-country child sexual exploitation were on the rise!)
these people are operating by a tried-and-tested pedophile playbook that has already failed. but they're trying it again anyway.
NOTE: if you read this post and assume it is me thinking that youth liberation does not exist instead of me criticising people who claim to be advocates for youth liberation but just want to have sexual access to children, here is a link that might help.
