    My personal belief is that most pedophiles can be put into two groups:

    Those developmentally stunted, who can’t see themselves as adults and therefore lust for people of their own ‘mental age’.

    And those who have a thing for power, and having an erection over controlling a minor, guiding them through everything and having full control over them.

    There may be a third option - these people who try hard to argue that pedophilia and ephebophilia aren’t the same thing, but I just write them off as idiots.

          I did not. Got any details?

          Also FWIW I discovered this yesterday: https://archive.ph/SFCwS

          No idea if it’s true, but even if so I don’t think it would exonerate him (though it would put Aella in a worse light)

              I made one out of morbid curiosity years ago but this was way before they decided to start crypto grifting for cash, so I’ve got no doubt my blah blah self-sovereign something something decentralized mumble mumble digital property has been liquidated by the king for not paying taxes

                  it is the garbage I crave at a price far too grave for humanity

                  god, how much does a garbage scow or whatever’s the smallest non-transient address allocation cost these days?

                    i believe the “comets” are free and you don’t need to become a shitcoiner

                    also i believe the 64-bit addresses are called “peasant’s filthy hovel” and have names like ~sodomy-dumass-cmpsci-ilitrt

        I can reserve a forth option just for him. Imagine a classification of pedoes, and a category being just ‘Yudkowsky’. I feel that many jews sharing the same surename wouldn’t be pleased.

      idk, people who are otherwise totally unremarkable seem to be pedos. it really seems more like any other variation in human sexuality except that it’s profoundly harmful

        It is a registered anomaly, a disorder, that deserves counseling. It just so seems we don’t hear much from people legitly strugling from it, but from rich people not knowing what to do with their free time besides fucking kids.

          @andrew_bidlaw For most people who suffer from paedophilia in the ICD-11 sense (which is a mental health disorder) and undergo years of treatment and therapy while living in terror that they might one day give in to their own instincts and do something unspeakable… it’s not surprising they prefer to not give interviews.
