Blaming the customers is what we do with pedophiles. It seems to work even though it's immoral.


Is that working? I thought we had successfully driven pedophiles away from professional help and into online communities where their behavior is encouraged.

Or are you being sarcastic?


Pedophile behavior in online communities doesn't harm anyone, and doesn't need professional help any more than homosexual behavior needs professional help. It's the illegal production of the product that causes the harm.


Some peodophiles predate young people using online communities to do so. This does harm those people.

Making a link between homosexuality (consenting adults) with the paraphilia paedophilia (adults predating children) is a fucking weird thing to do.
