    They used to be able to do it with gay people and be lauded by the public and had indifference to their violence by governments. They’ve just moved groups, same shitty people.

      Yeah, but the odds (and advisability) of “normalizing” pedos (despite some movements in the 70’s), similar to how gay people were is…well I think it’s low, for reasons I hope I don’t have to explain. That’s what makes them a useful perennial target, or claim. Universal one too, even people on the left will throw it around as an accusation. It can devolve into arguments about who is or isn’t a valid target for vigilantism (whether they do or don’t fit the category), when the argument should be against vigilantism itself.
