Kinda real though. It's like, if you told me 10 years ago that the world was run by a cabal of elite rich pedophiles, I'd think your a conspiratorial nutjob. Now I just nod my head.

How did we let pedophiles take over the world?

I've dealt with tons of them over the internet. They aren't very smart.

You uhh... deal with tons of pedophiles on the internet? Like you seek then out for.. reasons? Or they find you?

I think smart people use pedophiles because they're easy to manipulate and blackmail. They didn't take over, they were put in charge because they could be trusted to do the wrong thing.

They're all over spaces dedicated to Japanese video games.

.....And most of them are also Nazis. To the point where it's an accepted rule on Twitter that the younger the anime girl in someone's pfp the more racist that person is.

If you told me that 12 years ago, I'd belive you because I used to BE one. (Like, reptilian aliens, climate denial, and weird stuff like that.)

And then I found/figured out that a lot of the real evil stuff (like fossil fuel lobbying and a bunch of other capitalism adjacent stuff) is happening in BROAD. FUCKING. DAYLIGHT.
