it's not like they ever cared about it before

-
tw csa/ we elected a probable child rapist who has extremely creepy pictures of him with child models circulating
-
8chan has been a hub for circulating child porn for ages and everyone knew
-
circulating anime art of sexualized children is one of the things gamergate and the alt-right is known for
-
"it's not pedophilia to be attracted to adolescents" and "remove the age of consent" have been pillars of MRA ideology for years
-
and people on the supposed left who were doing the free speech shit about it until now are so fucking infuriating
-
because SO MANY OF US have been talking about this for YEARS and BEGGING people with the power to actually help to do so
-
and people like
@kurteichenwald weren't listening because most of the people he was victimizing were trans -
people like
@billmaher were giving him platforms to spread his vitriol and normalize his beliefs, which include that fucking kids is okay -

we've been talking about the sexual violence of these people for years.
-
gamergate, the test run for the alt-right, was started by a domestic abuser to get a mob to abuse his ex for him.
-
one of their poster boys, mark kern, was known for spreading often underage-looking anime porn
-
they organized on a website that was started as a place to share child pornography, that's what 8chan is known everywhere for
-
"i'm not a pedophile, i'm actually an ephebowhatever" has been a rallying cry of the redditors that evolved into Trump's base for years
-
every single website that these young men radicalize on, from 4chan to stormfront to return of kings, is full of apologia for sexual abuse.
-
sexual abuse, including that of children, is a core part of their ideology, because they believe they are owed sex.
-
the idea that they can get the sex they "deserve" and that they hate the world for denying them is a major thing they rally to.
-
it's what draws so many men to the pick-up artist subculture and to the MRA ideology. it's what started gamergate.
-
you know my honeybots? they mention rape culture and there are people who search for that and try to argue with them
-
they claim rape culture doesn't exist and literally term search on twitter for people who mention it looking for "debates", for fun.
-
given who talks about this stuff, this basically means they're searching for rape victims to harass. this is their hobby.
-
these people hang out on 4chan and 8chan and reddit, and they make friends there. and they normalize rape together.
-
they normalize sexual attraction to children. they defend members of their community who get found out to be pedophiles and rapists.
-
and they DEFLECT like it's their fucking job. for some of them, it is.
-
they use the marginalizations that their targets have to attempt to paint them as any kind of sexual predator that they think will stick.
-
they claim the trans women are pedophiles. they claim the black men rape white women.
-
they used the claims of a supposed plague of migrants and refugees raping white women long before trump did.
-
rape culture is a serious problem everywhere. it's normalized. people defend their rapist friends.
