But I only had good experiences with his daughter and him. Doubt I have any repressed memories there - would have repressed other worse shit in my life too :).
But I might Google more later. At a starbucks so I don't feel like googling for the word "pedophilia".
I visited his house dozens of times, knew all the family, shared toys, they belonged to the same religion as my parents you see.
25 years later I discovered Luke's father had been buggering his son the whole time. Still in prison, I think. I remember nothing strange or sexual happening despite visiting so frequently.
Same thing with that Carl guy on Reddit who was giving programming classes. It's always hard to believe, it was a shock for the community.
Point is, don't take normalcy for normal.
I don't think people, even pedophiles, are evil just for having their thoughts (because a hunt for thought criminals is something that spirals out of control so easily), but Jesus Christ they should keep those thoughts and reality very separated or it'll cause a lot of suffering for everybody.
If there are people reading this who have those urges, I suggest thinking going to the doctor, there exist drugs which deplete sexual desire. Taking a step like that shows strength, not a weakness.
I still doubt he was an actual molester, but I will say that support of nambla is a bit odd. That said I always give the benefit of the doubt until accusers come forward. Like I feel Milo was mostly just trolling.
Course I'm a little naive too. I initially thought subway Jared couldn't be a molester because he just looked too much like a molester.
Still hold to my initial impressions of him. That he was a big hearted fellow, a brilliant author, a doting father, and in his books/interviews very open about his sexuality.
His opinions on kids are odd, granted. It seems like a lot of people like him who get molested at a young age (thinking of Milo) rewrite their lives to be hypersexual.
