I keep seeing videos lately of grown men posing as children online and baiting individuals to public spaces and either assaulting them or recording/exposing them for content. While I don’t mind the idea of a predator being outed, the idea of grown adults posing as children online seems unsavory to me. Especially if their end goal isn’t to protect children, and is to provide content for views.

Obviously, being a child predator is wildly immoral and illegal and their actions are not what’s being debated.

    but you’re not overthrowing the fascists installing themselves with non vioence.

    That’s also not what this conversation is about.

      The alternative to vigilantism is letting the courts and cops handle it. The courts and cops have been filled with those people. It’s exactly what this conversation is about. If the system was just there would be no need for external actions. That was the idea of the first sentence of my first comment.
