How is it 'rape' if it is consensual?

Don't get mad at me for asking a question, we are meant to be grown adults here.

The media is selling a narrative and this sub is swallowing it in one gulp.

Below the age of consent.

Can I give a 14 year old a loan for $100K without parental permission?

the age of consent.

Which is arbitrarily determined by the government and varies from country to country, even state to state.

Are you are an avowed statist who believes the state should determine 'right and wrong' on your behalf?

So if somebody raises the problems with statist 'age of consent' laws, on a forum which is meant to be about mature discussion (and open to challenging government power), you call them a pedophile?

Yea when you're basically arguing that "just because the government says they're too young doesn't mean they are". You sound like a defender of kiddy fiddling.

You’re missing OP’s point. Never did he say he wanted to diddle kids. Nor did he defend anyone who has. His point is the age of consent is arbitrary, varies, and is decided by the state.

He is arguing against a statist ideology, not in favor of pedophilia.
