    I appreciate the response and no i didn’t mind the wall of text, thank you. I’m still not sure i can say id agree on categorizing some as a disorder and others not. To me age of consent + age of majority are two important lines that must be crossed from a legality standpoint, so the pre/post puberty timeline doesn’t equate into my thinking at all.

    But i do agree with you that legality shouldn’t dictate morality, and also agree on not demonizing pedophiles (clinical term) who haven’t abused children. It actually reminds me a bit of Alice in Borderland S3. There is a game where the hidden identity comes into play (S3E2). Ill share the overview below in a spoiler. it isn’t a perfect comparison because of how the game is set up, but it does make you think about the demonizing the hidden identity regardless of whether they did anything bad.

    Tap for spoiler: If you don't want to watch the show but want to know the game

    Basically the show is based on games where people die if they lose. In this game an unknown number of players out of ~100 are infected as a “zombie” in a card game. Zombies can win any card round by playing their zombie card (infinite use) , and that zombie card will infect the other player (giving them an infinite use zombie card). At the same time, every human also has a single use shotgun card which will quite literally blow the head off of a zombie player. There is also an unknown number of vaccine cards which can be used to cure 1 zombie (destroying their zombie card and making them human). The game is played over 20 rounds where each round you touch another player to challenge them for that round. At the end of the 20 rounds whichever side (humans vs zombies) has the most people wins. The losing side all die. So in this this case, under threat of death, telling someone you’re a zombie or infecting another player to be a zombie can potentially get you killed.

    I guess I’m confused. Ive heard people argue that its either all mental disorder or it’s all not mental disorder. Ive never heard someone splitting the difference. How do you rationalize some pedophiles have a mental disorder and others do not? I’m using the colloquial term pedophile to cover all ages. I understand some are attracted based before/ during/ after puberty but to me i don’t see where the line should start/ end in terms of a mental disorder. It seems to me that if it was a mental disorder for some ages, it would be for the others. That just is what would make sense to me because in all cases the child/teen is under the legal age and in all cases acting on the sexual attraction would be rape/sexual assault.

    In other words, i don’t understand the difference for why i should think some pedophiles should be less bad based on age? Why do pedophiles get to claim mental disorder but ephebophiles don’t get the same?

    One of the most active posters on the fediverse and they like to post in local comms when possible and promote any instance that isn’t .ml.

    Also while all or most of those are the same person, nothing is stopping anyone from taking someone else’s name on another server. Same name doesn’t necessarily mean same person behind the screen

    Hated one has a patreon with access to the videos.

    But heres a summary-

    • proton offered $70 per signup to Proton VPN
    • hated one has never accepted sponsorships to remain unbiased but had considered this one because it was a service already recommended by him. But he still had reservations and he talks through his reasoning for why he doesn’t do sponsorships.
    • during initial emails he had asked if they’d be willing to do an interview instead, similar to how other companies have done (like tuta). This was considered by proton while offer was on the table.
    • hated one asked to share communications with his community to help weigh reactions. Proton agreed and he made a patreon post asking for feedback.
    • ultimately hated one declined the sponsorships offer. Proton has since ghosted him, and will not answer emails about whether or not they are still interested in an interview. He acknowledges he isn’t owed anyone’s time but thinks companies need to be willing to stop treating creators as commodities and instead talk to the communities they are soliciting.
    • hated one again reiterates his long held opinion that proton is good and he does recommend it, but he never recommends putting all your eggs in one basket. He recommends using protonmail + tuta vpn or tutamail + protonvpn as an example.
