I’m going to be honest, I’m suspicious of every single ‘pedophile hunter’. They are going after a demographic that people will not rush to defend, even if innocent.
Also, these ‘hunters’ probably have something shady going on in their own lives, and this is some form of projection that they also profit off of.
I wouldn't even be surprised if a bunch of them are pedophiles themselves. Projection and such.
Well, there’s this case.

ya it does seem to be coming from a group of people who are overly obsessed with CP, like way more than the average person is.. might be a bit of projection on their part methinks
Reminds me of Republicans questioning Ketanji Brown literally the only thing they asked about her was about how hard she was on pedophiles. The level of projection was palpable. Basically confirmed that all Republicans are predators.
