That was my impression - might be wrong. I will check up on it.

EDIT:

Seems also inconclusive, since it’s a difficult topic to research:

"In summary, child and/or adult pornography is a feature in the lives of many pedophiles and other sex offenders, just as it is a feature in the lives of some persons who do not commit sexual offences. Alternatively, some sex offenders do not use pornography of any kind. "

Maybe there is newer research you are aware of.

Troubles reading?

Depends on if it’s more a substitute or a trigger. I personally don’t know of any conclusive research on this topic. But people consuming lolicon defenetly need psychological help, don’t think it’s a healthy fantasy no matter how to look on it.

No, not all pedophile are rapist but almost all consume materials that were produced by raping children. One problem is that there are only a few programs that actually targeting helping pedophiles to deal with their condition. So we leave them on their own to figure out how to deal with their condition.

It would also help if church would actually punish (by assisting police investigation) and kick out offenders instead of covering up and moving them around.

It’s like fentanyl with a gun.

That’s how you know he is probably a plant. /s ( I actually don’t know if he is legit opposition or not).

Maybe it’s up to queer folks themselves to chose which culture they want?

Some good news!

I’m talking about disproportional response to terrorism - I thought it was pretty clear.

Try no to kill thousands of civilians in response.

we don’t actually know if it would work.

We could try, because we know that the alternatives don’t work for sure.

We also have no clue how to solve the underlying conflicts.

I would say that the bigger problem is that people in power don’t actually want to solve the conflicts at all.

You need to solve the underlying conflicts?

But this action is trying to stop the people sponsoring the terrorist.

And how did it work out so far? Terrorism is the result of dis-balance of power which makes terrorism the only viable method of resistance. You can’t solve terrorism with war. I like how you kind of managed to understand that in the case of Palestine/Israel conflict, but somehow stopped thinking right after that.

We could give that whole thing a catchy name, like military industrial complex or something.

Or how to keep global terrorism with a never ending supply of angry young people.

I was talking about myself.

Kind of forgot the /s.

We all know that children are always just a copy of their parents.

Why take part in a conversation if you are not properly informed on the topic?
