One of the most disturbing turns on the slippery slope we find ourselves careering along at breakneck speed is the increasingly transparent push to normalise paedophilia. As reported previously, this isn’t just some fringe creeps, but the mainstream (which means the “mainstream left”) media: Salon, Slate, the New York Times. Even a pre-schoolers’ tv show recently featured a “paedophile flag”.

The big question is: why? For most of the “sympathy for paedophiles” crowd, I suspect it’s merely a twisted sense of “acceptance”. When you openly celebrate degeneracy, where, after all, do you draw the line? These are people who are so “open-minded” that they’ve abandoned any sense of propriety. When the adults in the family are “transgender lesbians”, it almost makes a twisted kind of sense that they’d think “exposing kids to kink” is actually laudatory, rather than, y’know, abuse.

But, it also seems that a certain core of the “progressive left” wants to normalise paedophilia for much darker reasons.

A CNN employee has been charged with three counts of using a facility of interstate commerce to sexually abuse underage girls.

John Griffin, 44, of Stamford, Connecticut, was arrested on Friday by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), according to a statement by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Vermont […]

Griffin works as a senior producer at CNN, where he has worked since 2013, according to his LinkedIn profile.

Not unlike Jacob Rosenbaum, the career child-rapist and BLM activist shot in Kenosha, Griffin targeted parents in order to get his greasy hands on their kids. Griffin used social media sites to glom onto parents of young girls and “persuade parents to allow him to train their daughters to be sexually submissive”.

Prosecutors said he transferred more than $3,000 to the mother of two daughters aged nine and 13 who he had been communicating with.

The mother and the 9-year-old flew from Nevada to Boston in July 2020. Prosecutors say Griffin picked them up from the airport and drove them to his house in Ludlow, Vermont.

At the property “the daughter was directed to engage in, and did engage in, unlawful sexual activity,” the indictment said.

Other allegations include that Griffin tried to entice two other children over the internet to engage in sexual activity.

In April 2020, Griffin is alleged to have proposed a “virtual training session” in which he instructed a woman and her 14-year-old daughter to remove their clothes during a video chat.

In June 2020, he also allegedly suggested the purported mother of a 16-year-old daughter to come to his ski house “for sexual training involving the child.”

But it’s not just the media-left who are at it.

Josh Duggar‘s fate has been sealed.

A jury on Thursday found the former reality star, political activist and father of seven guilty of two charges of knowingly receiving and possessing child pornography, also known as child sexual abuse material.

Who the hell is Josh Duggar? Like the Kardashians, I’m thankfully only fleetingly aware of the existence of the Duggar family, who likewise came to prominence courtesy of that ghastly excrescence of modern culture, the “reality tv show”. 19 Kids and Counting chronicled the lives of this family of 20, who touted themselves as the faces of the “family values” movement of the American religious right.

Well, every family has that creepy relative, it seems. And in the Duggar’s case, “creepy” is an understatement.

A DOJ agent alleges Josh Duggar downloaded a horrific video showing a “3-month-old baby being tortured and sexually abused” […]

Prosecutors have previously alleged that Duggar downloaded images and videos of girls as young as 5 being “violated and exploited.”

However, on Thursday, James Fottrell, a top forensics investigator at the Department of Justice, testified that his team had reportedly uncovered the shocking video of a 3-month-old girl.

The horrendous clip featured the girl being stripped naked, posed on a bed and being tortured with hot wax, Fottrell said.

“The infant is crying and screaming. It’s one of the most offensive videos that I’m familiar with throughout my whole career,” Fottrell told the jury.

Naturally, the social media left are jumping on Duggar’s well-deserved conviction with scarcely-concealed glee. Of course, the Duggar family can no more be held responsible for the monster lurking in their midst than a media company can. But each are responsible for how they respond.

The Duggar family, for their part, have stated that, “We are grieved beyond words over the children exploited and abused in child sexual abuse material, and we are thankful for our justice system in its punishment of such evils”. Another family member states that “We agree with the judicial system’s verdict and we are thankful for the men and women who work tirelessly to protect children and help prevent child sexual abuse material,” it continued. “Our hearts break for all CSAM victims”.

Which is a far cry from the media-left’s efforts to re-frame paedophilia as “just another sexuality” and peddle greasy stories of so-called “virtuous paedophiles”.
