Greetings, Jape! One of the actual purposes of the Lifeline chat is to help us manage our attraction base within the bounds of the law. The people I met here and on Lifeline long ago went a long way towards helping me do exactly that, to feel that I can make positive contributions to the world despite the fact that I know, with the way current society is set up, that I can never in my life have a romantic relationship with a young girl. We never advocate breaking the law. We never advocate predatory behavior of any kind, even if we may disagree at times with the mainstream as to what might constitute "predatory" behavior. In fact, it can become too easy for us to almost forget we're a part of this community for that reason, i.e., that we do not break the law and steer clear of any type of behavior that could bring suspicion down on us.

GC and Lifeline have never allowed CP trading, and the vast majority don't even have any idea where to find actual CP that would be officially designated as such under U.S. law. Of course, in countries where the law is vague enough about it, then any image or even discussion that might offend someone or come off as potentially being attractive to a MAP can be interpreted as "CP". The meaning of the term "pedo" and what may constitute "CP" have become so broad that either can mean just about anything the person using the terms want them to mean.

Is most, or any, of that Epstein nonsense even true? Not any more likely than the Satanic ritual abuse claims were authentic, IMO. Are any of the players in the alleged "Epstein Island" fiasco even real MAPs? Likely not, as you mentioned.
