    Goddam what an obvious fucking name. If you wrote a procedural cop show where the child traffickers ran a site called KidFlix, you’d be laughed out of the building for being so on-the-nose.

      Depends on your taste for stories and the general atmosphere. I think in better parts of Star Wars EU this would make sense (or it wouldn’t, but the right way, same as in reality).

    The name of it sounds like a streaming service for children’s movies and TV shows. Like, Netflix for kids. In the past 5 years I have seen at least 3 deepweb social communities that started out normally, with a lot of people talking shit and enjoying anonymous free speech. Then I log in a couple weeks or months later to find CP being posted and no mods doing anything to stop it. In all those cases, I reported the site to the FBI anonymously and erased my login from my password manager.

    They also seized 72,000 illegal videos from the site and personal information of its users, resulting in arrests of 1,400 suspects around the world.

      You do get sick, and I would be most surprised if they didnt allow people to look away and take breaks/get support as needed.

      Most emergency line operators and similar kinds of inspectors get them, so it would be odd if they did not.

      I’m sure many of them numb themselves to it, and pretend it isn’t real in order to do the job. Then unfortunately, I’m sure some of them get addicted themselves.

      Similar to undercover cops who do drugs while undercover, then get addicted to the drugs.

      I once saw a list of defederated lemmy instances. In most cases, and I mean like 95% of them, the reason of thedefederation was pretty much in the instance name. CP everywhere. Humanity is a freaking mistake.

              I’m sorry but classifying that as advocating for pedophilia is crazy. all they said is they don’t know about studies regarding it so they said “probably” instead of making a definitive statement. you took that word and ran with it; your response is extremely over the top and hostile to someone who didn’t advocate for what you’re saying they advocate for.

              It’s none of my business what you do with your time here but if I were you I’d be more cool headed about this because this is giving qanon.

                They literally investigated specific time frames of their voyeurism kink in medieval times extensively, wrote several paragraphs in favor of having children watch adults have sex, but couldn’t be bothered to do the most basic of research that sex abuse is harmful to children.

                  “they knew some things and didn’t know some things” isn’t worth getting so worked up over. they knew the mere concept of sex being taboo negatively affected them and didn’t want to make definitive statements about things they didn’t research. believe it or not lemmy comments are not dissertations and most people just talk and don’t bother researching every tangential topic just to make a point they want to make.

            There are a lot of pedophiles everywhere.

            Unfortunately, the really rich ones get away with it for a long time, and few get away with it forever.

                Also Epstein got a lot of cover from non-criminal association with some rich and powerful people. Not everyone who rode on his plane was a nonce.

                On the other hand, Trump was very closely associated with Epstein for an extended period. That’s not the same as someone glitzing up Epstein’s guest list in support of a charity fundraiser.

    Maybe Jeff Bezos will write an article about him and editorialize about “personal liberty”. I have to keep posting this because every day another MAGA/lover - religious bigot or otherwise pretend upstanding community member is indicted or arrested for heinous acts against women and children.
