There's also a suspiciously high number of people in these "catch a pedophile" groups who end up being convicted of some sort of pedophilia themselves, as though they're projecting their own disgust with themselves and/or they think people won't suspect them of it as long as they're busy busting others for it. The conservative right wing only cares about appearances, not real solutions, while allowing the Epstein class to continue trafficking, raping, and killing children.
