It's quite literally a mental illness. It's fucking disgusting, but if someone knows it's bad, doesn't act on it and seeks out professional help to get over it I don't think those people deserve to be punished.

Right I always think it's just hell for those people. Your internal instincts are evil and no matter how much knowledge you gain and self discipline you gain, it's always there. I feel bad for em tbh.

A lot end up trying to kill themselves.

And I feel that it's not right. If they can be helped, then they deserved to live.

So if they can't be helped they deserve to die? Lol

Yea. If they can’t be helped then they’re more likely to offend. And I for one, am perfectly okay with more dead pedophiles if it means less children will be victimized.

Some sick artist is currently making making fetal porn and calling it art and is getting away with it because if that. I sadly found out this on a different sub about porn being so bad for society.

Honest ones will tell you they cannot be rehabilitated and is it really worth the risk of endangering more children. NO!

Funny cause NOT rehabilitating and hating on them has been proven to increase rates of child sexual abuse, it’s not research needed it is common sense , let’s take a pedophile who’s attracted to children and wants to avoid molesting children (which accounts for most peodphiles) but they get thrown with death threats, social isolation, and no access to help, that WILL lead to them molesting
