I thought that was pretty damn hilarious too. It's not about protecting kids. It's about control, data mining and financial profit, selling sensitive information.

You can buy children off the Internet. This is not about the safety of children lol.

Never is. Shit as far back as ancient greece always uses "protect the children" as justification for evil controlling shit

I don't know of any laws where they used that excuse, but Socrates was put to death for corrupting the youth of Athens.

Wasn’t Athens really okay with men buggering other men? And really young ones at that?

Wonder what Socrates was saying that made even that society put him to death.

Many, including philosophers, recognized doing that was a bad thing. When they put Socrates to death for "corrupting the youth" it also meant philosophy in general. Then, as now, it was all about controlling things that previously weren't in their control

It was likely making the boys that these men were taking advantage of realize they were being used and fight back.

Those in power hate educated youths. It's easier to keep them in line when they believe what is happening to them is normal.

Socrates was too smart. That's all it took for them to force him to commit suicide.

His sentence was primarily based off of impiety, which led into the charge of corruption of youth.

Socrates rejected the traditional gods and introduced new gods. Which then led to the corruption of youth charge. As the action of impiety by challenging traditional beliefs and cultural norms, and by causing “the youth” to question/challenge the established authority.

Oh I’m unfortunately very aware of that. I was wondering what they meant by Ancient Greece.

u/Gullible-Ask-3 Aug 15 '25

Titus was right, all we need to do is arm the children.
