Just look at these people involved in this case though.

Are we to believe all these people had paedophille thoughts before they all realised they were the same..or did some only realise once surrounded by the others involved.

Birds of a feather I guess, these kinds of people tend to gravitate towards each other

But it's not really a discussion you would have though is it..

Hey. Hi. Are you a paedo? Yes, yes I am.

Ok do you mind if I hang out with you?


I mean, how on earth would you start that conversation.

I would imagine it starts out more subtlety than that

It's like how rapists and murderers sometimes team up with each other.

Some people are just sadistic, and they end up finding likeminded people.

it's like how huw edwards, pete townsend and Gary glitter did it. Townsend got caught on the dark net "doing research" on child porn sites and so it goes on.

If you have an obsession with something, you find a way of satisfying that. That will lead you to groups of similarly thinking people, because they all have the same obsession

…because of the recent story, it also makes me think of the mass rape of Gisele Pelicot and the site that the men who raped her gathered on…in the court they’d said that there was consent from the husband so for them, it hadn’t been rape…?…but it was also revealed of the ‘key words and phrases’ that led them to what they did…’without her consent’ was a phrase that was used and obviously drew them in so how could they plead an ignorance to rape…I read that there was a journalist who joined that same site as a 15yr old girl and they were flooded with sexual content messages…I would say that these sites exist because of the people who exist who are drawn to them and when one closes down, which the one used in the Pelicot case did…?…there will always be another, sadly…
