    I think the desire to protect kids, which most but not all humans have, wants to include more people in the category of pedophile so they can be sure not to miss any real ones. So I can respect the intent. But I do agree that it gets to be overused a lot. Just like fascist and nazi these days. It kinda cheapens the term for those who truely deserve it. But that is human nature.

      That sounds like some creeper shit. And we currently have a problem world wide with fascists. With the said fascists protecting their rich pedo friends.

        Exactly, but we spend time calling people pedos amd fascists who haven’t done anything instead of dealing with the ones who have. That is the problem I am trying to hilight.
