Great explanation. All I can think why the RS and WP deny the reality of what’s going on, must be because it’s true and they want to downplay it. Why?! They are in it somehow.
All we have to do to understand reaction of publications like the Rolling Stone (go back to the 60s and 70s and try to remember all the rock songs about teenage groupies) is look to Hollywood itself to see a history of claims about underage sex abuse. Roman Polansi, the Cory's (Feldman and Haim), Jeffery Epstein, Woody Allen, Elliot Page. All have been tied to sex abuse of minors. An ex CNN producer, John Griffin, is under investigation. The current administration has removed child trafficking information from the DOJ website. There was a recent sting (May) in which people in NE Ohio were picked up on a CSA sting in which 10 people were arrested, including a non-profit executive, former middle school teacher (Keystone district), and former wrestling coach and superintendent of Westlake schools (as recently as 2022). Normalizing this abuse, which is apparently a goal in some circles, only ruins childrens lives more.
It is definitely not normalized when it involves Catholic priests. And of course it should never be normalized, but picking and choosing when it's okay is just wrong.
Very well stated!
Thank you!
