"why can't we, as intellectuals with no pedophilic tendencies, have an intelligent discussion about how one kind of attraction to minors is less wrong than another kind of attraction to minors"
My only thought is: thank god I have an appointment for a root canal
in a couple hours. I’ll ask to get it done without anaesthesia so with

She is actually 400 years old a bad pedophile, the one who
actually performs pedophilia, is a twist.
Also the story doesn’t really work because you know… the first pedo
isn’t practicing. Else they get punished. (Also, you can imagine a world
where a magical power can transform people into little girls but not a
magical power who just goes ‘well you are no longer pedo’)
It would be an the greatest imaginable injustice if a galaxy brain programmer couldn’t get literally any wish they could think of fulfilled. Removing the capability to have that wish would be a crime against humanity. Human trafficking, not so much.
I like how the whole thing is actually about pedophilia, and the totally extraneous line about ephebophilia is thrown in like, "Hey, if you're reading this and feeling judged for your uncontrollable lust for 13-year-olds, don't worry—I'm not talking about *you.* You're cool!"
Why don’t you have a seat over there, Eliezer?
(I have to give Yudkowsky extra credit for using the most clichéd pedo line possible.)
Before you post, THINK!
Is it terrible?
Is it horrible?
Is it inane?
Is it nauseating?
Is it killing me?

I guess we now know why Epstein donated to MIRI…
Also, what the fuck, Eliezer? Why are you fantasizing about pedophiles being delivered little girls?
Locking this thread cuz some of y’all want to use it as a place to debate age of consent. Go be weird elsewhere.
