Any position we take that calls for kids to be more empowered, or to have more choice or more freedom, will likely be twisted round to us trying to prise them away from their parents and social workers and into our beds, as this neatly avoids the questions about how society treats its young by focussing on the sex issue and hitting the moral panic button.


Exactly.

Also, our enemies don't hate us because of who we are or even what we do. They hate us because they want to hate, and we are convenient targets of opportunity. They don't want children empowered because they want to feel powerful - and the only people they are still allowed to dominate are children.
