@matrix The "scientist" cited in this is a longtime pro-pedo activist. They're not outright defending it yet but this kind of article is absolutely intended to reduce the stigma around pedophilia to advance it as a political agenda. Salon floated a trial balloon back in 2015, it backfired badly, so it was shelved for a while. This is the same shit. Obviously people get insanely emotional about this topic and that can interfere with reasonable arguments, but people who've been closely observing this stuff for a while pick up on the patterns of behavior of these types.
