bladespark"I'm so disappointed and upset, I found out this awesome creator is a pedophile!"
Damn, that sucks. They got caught assaulting a kid?
"No, nothing like that."
Oh, so you mean they were sexting a kid online, or being a creep to one at conventions or something?
"No, not that I know of."
Right, sorry, you must mean they were outed as belonging to that creepy man-boy-love group that treats pedophilia like a healthy sexuality.
"No, and I've never heard of that, that's gross!"
It's super gross, yeah. Though really, if you're concerned about pedophilia, you'd think you'd have heard of the biggest group of pedophiles in the modern world... But anyhow, this creator; let me guess, they went on the record somewhere advocating for lowering the age of consent, or saying the children can consent to sex with adults, or something like that?
"No, not that either."
Well, I'm stumped, that's the usual list of creepy pedo behavior. Did they come out to a therapist and it got leaked or something?
"They wrote a bunch of fanfiction shipping underage characters!"
Oh. I see.
"Isn't it terrible?!"
I'm very sorry for you. But hey, while we're discussing disappointing creators, did you know that George R. R. Martin is a serial killer?
(This script is deeply unrealistic because the people who claim to be against pedophilia will always be screaming loudly about the fanfiction in the very first line, you certainly don't have to pry it out of them, but it's not like having this conversation would make any of them notice the problem with their performative freak-outs anyway.)
