There’s a huge difference between teaching sex acts and helping kids avoid predators.
The lack of action against pedophiles is just going to fuel Qanon conspiracy theories and lead to vigilantism.
Neither QAnon nor the federal government cares much about kids. A guarantee of food and medical care would save a lot more lives than hunting child predators. Most child sexual abuse comes from people they know: parents, relatives, ministers, teachers, neighbors. Online stalkers count for a very tiny portion of crimes against children.
This is a moral panic piece, like terrorism scare pieces in the 2010s
That doesn’t mean we need to divert attention away from pedophilia.
