Yeah, but to the average person, the scientific definition doesn’t matter squat.
Had sex with a child=pedophile, which is the way the term is being used here. Nobody is interested in getting into the nuance of specifically, psychologically, why. And ti he honest, I don’t think its particularly productive to overall conversation.

MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.comto News@lemmy.world•Protesters in Los Angeles are shifting their tactics as ICE detentions spread fear46·29 days agoA LOT of important lessons, orgs, new theory, and new praxis grew out of both Occupy and the uprisings of 2020. I promise you, people are ready to use a diverse array of tactics to win this fight, but there’s one crucial thing still missing: critical mass. If you don’t have a large enough group of people, you get bowled over.
Things like No Kings (a reformist effort from well meaning, but status quo-protecting liberals), are largely toothless, but they DO have the positive side effect of radicalizing liberals. It’s like revolutionary Kindergarten.
So stuff like No Kings, while kind of annoying and not really anything, feed into that pool of people necessary to achieve that critical mass.
We’re getting there, but moving too fast can ensure a bloody and ultimately defeated revolution and help to cement authoritarian rule, if you’re not careful.
Start building networks with the people around you. Get to know your neighbors. Lend out your tools. Feed hungry people in your neighborhood. That’s how you build a revolution. The fighting can’t start without people taking care of people.
