I was inspired to make this by articles like this one and cases I read in these two reports from Human Rights Watch, some of which I’ll detail here:

In 2006, a 13-year old girl from Ogden, Utah was arrested for rape for having consensual sex with her 12-year-old boyfriend. Her 12-year-old boyfriend was found guilty of violating the same law for engaging in sexual activity with her.

In Georgia, a 26-year-old married woman was made to register as a sex offender for life and had to move from her home because as a teenager she had oral sex with a willing fellow high school student when she was 17 and he was 15.

As one individual who was convicted of statutory rape at age 16 for having consensual sex with his 14-year-old girlfriend told Human Rights Watch, “We were in love. And now we are married. So it’s like I am on the registry for having premarital sex. Does having premarital sex make me a danger to society? My wife doesn’t think so.”

Dan M.’s story: I was convicted of statutory rape when I was 17. The girl was 15.

Henry F., adjudicated at 17 in Michigan for having consensual sex with his 15-year-old girlfriend

Sean C., adjudicated at 17 for having consensual sex with a girlfriend who was three weeks shy of 16

    What happened to your Reddit accounts? Oh yeah you’ve been repeatedly banned for grooming and pedo stuff.

    Any luck finding your kind here?

          I’m not pro-grooming. I like discussing my philosophies with other adults. You, of course, already know this, as you’ve been following me around hanging on every word I say for a year now.

          You ought to have known when I didn’t give a shit that you figured out who I am, or when I straight up told you that you were hardly the only person to do so, that I’ve always been intending to attach my beliefs and philosophies to my actual identity. In truth, I need people like you. In the end, it will be dipshits exactly like you who will direct about 90% of all the attention my work will ever get straight to it, and I thank you in advance.

          I am, however, quite done with your stalking. So, if I receive any further communication from someone I even think is you, including replying to this comment, replying to anything I say or any of my posts on Reddit, DMing me on any platform, responding to my posts on Twitter, or if I am banned from a subreddit and I so much as suspect that you are the reason, I am sending the entire documented folder of all of our interactions, all of the 20+ accounts you’ve made solely for the purpose of harassing me, and all of our DMs including your death threats, straight to the HR team at Brawlhalla, Eric.

                  Do you honestly not see how fucking weird you are? Why do you know so much about my life? Why do you care this much? There’s probably been thousands of people who have disagreed with me these last four years, maybe even tens of thousands. Only one guy decided to whittle through my commentary, figure out who I am, and stalk me all over the internet for a year though. Have you stopped to consider how unhealthy it is how badly you miss me when you can’t find my accounts?

                  There’s no way you even think I’m a danger to anyone anyway. At some point, likely quite a while ago now, you had to have realized that nobody would advocate about the things I do, leave a paper trail connected to his identity all over the internet, and simultaneously prey on minors. Read Farson’s Birthrights (just kidding, I know you can’t read). He had five kids of his own, expressed way more extreme ideologies than I ever have about adolescent and even child sexuality, and died at the age of 90 with nary a sex offense to his name. Turns out it’s perfectly possible to think things should be different while adhering to the way things are.

                  But the truth is, you’re determined to perceive me as some sort of a danger just so you can perceive yourself as some sort of superhero. As I already told you once before, you’re not. You’re just some weirdo stalker who draws gay shit for a gay videogame and I have way more than enough ammunition to prove it.

                  If you want to do something productive, shit, the age of consent is 16 in your home state - the exact age that it is in 29 additional states, the exact age that it is in over 80% of the planet, and the exact age that I advocate for it to be. If you think that’s such a problem, go do something about it. If you were too fucking stupid to know whether or not you wanted to have sex with a person when you were 16 years old, go get on the mic at city hall, tell them so, and that you think it needs to be higher. Not that I’m not flattered that your literal entire pathetic life revolves around me, but it’d be more productive than spending all your time obsessing about me, looking for me, harassing me, stalking me.

                    Sorry to burst your bubble, but you actually don’t take up very much of my time or thoughts.

                    And if you’re the advocate, where are you being productive? Cursing people out and using ai to make arguments on social media is helping people how?

                    If you were legit, you’d be legit. You are just fishing for validation that what you feel normal, and the whole youth advocacy spin is to flip it and make it about the young people. It’s very obvious to anyone who catches more than one or two of your comments.

                    You either have the emotional maturity of a teen, are a predator, or both.
