My thing is, if you're a psychologist and you're trying to say that pedophiles need help, then why the absolute FUCK are you trying to defend them on here when it's a pedophile who gave in to his urges? Does that not ring as bad to you, with the current climate here? Is this the time and place to do that, to flex your psychology degree on here? When children were hurt and traumatized? You didn't even acknowledge that in your original comment, you just jumped straight to protecting pedophiles, regardless of what people were saying. That's the problem, and somehow you still completely missed that in your later comments.
Also I am capable of nuance. I can understand that pedophilia should be treated. but I'm not gonna give a standing ovation to a pedophile who decides that they'll be a decent human and not molest/abuse children. I wouldn't give a pyromaniac a giant clap on the back for not torching a house, and I'm not gonna do that with pedophiles either. You're protecting pedophiles here, after a child molester was arrested for his crimes. Sure nuance is needed, but with this kind of thing it is not. Some things are black and white, and sometimes that's fine. Just like how everything doesn't need to be black and white, not everything needs to be gray. It just sounds like some centrist shit with no backbone.
Also, please don't try to guilt me into feeling sympathy for pedophiles just because I have depression and both are classified as mental illness. It sounds like you're trying to normalize sympathy/empathy towards pedophilia as the act, not the mental illness, and it makes you look bad. I do not want to empathize with pedophiles because it makes me feel like shit since I have close people who were molested as kids, and I have gone through enough sexualization as a child to hate my own body.
It's NOT your job to go around telling people they have to empathize with a pedophile when a child was just hurt. It IS your job as a psychologist to make sure that the people who DO want to seek help don't give into their urges. A man guilty of molesting a child does not have to be empathized with, because he was not the one that was hurt here, and people do not have to forgive him for doing something so heinous. Regardless of everything, does it not strike you that maybe you're in the wrong when people are telling you that a man like Matsuki hurting children are bad and should be hauled off into the sea while you're trying your best to argue about semantics and sympathizing with pedophiles in here? Whether or not child molesters are pedophiles all the time or whether being attracted to a 10 yo or a 16 yo makes one a pedophile or whatever fucking word people use to soften the blow of them being attracted to children, like whole literal children (again regardless of the cutoff age cause of yall countries are on some fucking shit too I guess), it all buries the fact that children get hurt.
And if you want nuance from people who hate pedophiles, then have some nuance too. Because you are trying to protect pedophiles in this atmosphere and now all sorts of actual fucking pedophile apologists are coming out of the shadows to say shit like "pedophilia is okay as long as you don't act on it" (it is not, that is why when decent people find out that they may be a pedophile they want to kill themselves and seek help because even they understand that being a pedophile is bad) and making jokes about the situation as if its the time and place to be shitty edgelords.
You could have just said something like: "Wow, real shit awful that this asshole touched kids. I do not condone child molestation and think that it is bad. If you think you are feeling pedophilic tendencies, please seek help. You should not wait until something awful happens before something gets done". Then the problem and backlash would not have been half as bad. But instead you jumped to protecting pedophiles all because I said "death to pedophiles" and completely ignored everything else I said. I legit said that people are ignoring the fact that a child was molested and are solely focusing on the fact that their fave manga was #cancelled, and you focused on the pedophile part. Again, do you see what is wrong with that?
