There is no good data source. If you run by prosecutions, laws do not apply to the wealthy.
I've met a lot of rich assholes, and all if them acted like pedos. More than one tried to groom me.
More than not acted like pedophiles.
I know an old guy who groomed a 17 year old from a student group he volunteered with, and right as she's 18 and graduating she's moving in with him. We didn't have grooming laws six months ago but we do now. Still doesn't apply. He "did nothing wrong" . Not all child predators are convicted.
Moat aren't. It's basically approved in our society.
There are good sources your vibes/feelings/emotions just are not good sources (this is true for everyone).
I don’t think you can just tell if someone is a pedophile.
You should seek help if you aren’t already if you were really groomed.
Sorry, did you both try to discredit me as a broken victim and tell me im wrong in the same post?
Why do you care so much about the reputations of the ultra wealthy? They're not gonna fuck you, bro; you're too old for them.
You made a lot of claims that have nothing to back them other than vibes. Im not discrediting you because you never had credibility in this regard. You are wrong about your assertion that most rich people are pedos.
You have claimed to be a victim if abuse and you are asserting factually incorrect and irrational views regarding tens of millions of people. Do you think that is indicative of someone who has a healthy perspective?
I have literal first hand experiences of the ultra wealthy hitting on me when i was a literal fucking child. Some of them were subtler, and im pretty confident, and its in the realm of vibes, but a couple definitely were not fucking subtle about it.
The wealthy are all pedophiles. What evidence do you have to the contrary?
You potentially have an experience with a singular person and you are using that to decide wealth was the motivating factor and are using it to call all wealthy people pedos.
I don’t need counter evidence when the initial claim is this clownish.
I've very much enjoyed the company of a person who turned out to be a pedophile before, and im much too old for them to be of particular danger to me anymore.
I wouldnt write them off as a friend for that, just like i wouldnt write them off for being a serial killer, or someone who wears socks with sandals.
The wealthy, however; i absolutely would.
