To be fair, the problem is that these groups are going after people IRL, as per the article

      Is this an argument that relies on as a central point and fails to mention the difference between being a pedophile and acting on it aka child rape? Or the dumbest shit I’ve ever read?

      People have been hunting paedos for as long as I could remember.

      People are just more aware of paedos now.

      I don’t think serial murderers are as prevalent as paedophiles. The only person I have a connection to who was a victim of a serial murderer, that serial murderer was a paedophile (Robert Black) and murdered to cover up his vile actions.

      But there are far worse humans our there than kid fuckers.

      Like what exactly? I can only think of serial murderers who murder kids. If there are worse people, they aren’t far worse than the paedophiles.
