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.
As a child, I was preyed upon by an adult.
To me, people making content doing this kind of “hunter” shit is vile. The victims are real children, and you’re using them & their pain to fuel your ego and hero complex? For “”“entertainment”“”? And they’re monetizing it?? Disgusting.
If you’re going to be a vigilante, be quiet and anonymous about it. And be absolutely certain about everything that had occurred.
I still wish someone had gone after my abuser, even after all these years. It would have given me peace knowing that they are no longer out there.
Yeah… this.
Where are these (supposed) “hunters” when the politicians they support starts stripping away child labor laws and/or advocating for the right to marry children?
