saw this pointed out here and felt it deserved it’s own post
let me mention that this is exactly the sort of argument I’ve seen pedophilia enthusiasts break out many times:
hmm, we thoughtful inquirers should look at this incredibly tenous evidence I’ve curated. it raises questions about whether we should be superrrrr chill about sex with children. questions with answers that, I’m sold on!
they want to think about fucking children without feeling bad, so they’re doing the libertarian “what if the child consents tho” argument. because they’re rationalists they have to rephrase it in their preferred format to be allowed to ingest it, so now it’s “what if the utils consent tho”
