I also think that there’s a parallel between the sexual objectification of progressively younger people, and capitalists’ desire to bring back child labor — as in, these are two sides of the same coin, like one of the main driving forces behind the reproduction of pedophilia in our current mode of production is the mode’s need for a progressively larger pool of laborers who are ideally more easily exploited and abused.
So this is what I’m referring to when I say that “pedophilia is a system”: that all sexuality is in some manner both reproductive and reproduced, and as such pedophilia would not exist without a mode of production already prone to exploit and abuse children in other ways. That pedophilia is not really a product of “defective brains”, but is rather “programmed”, created by these systems of exploitation as a tool to help maintain themselves — and this is just as true of the pederasts of ancient slave societies as the Xitter “lolicons” of today.

But this is just my own view.
