Just so…

Perhaps, but they get the votes. It is not a conspiracy by the elites, it is that corrupt voters are always ready to elect those who promise laws that give an extra minuscule bit of extra safety. The logic of most voters is “better safe than sorry, at any cost (as long as someone else pays that cost)”.

«there are people, such as myself, who have no interest in fucking their own flesh and blood children up the ass from age six months onwards»

Sure, but statistics and stories say that most abuse (not just children sexual abuse) is done by close relatives and other people close and in a position of authority over the abused (often mothers in the case of children) more than the largely mythical strangers who are molesters.

However, the big deal is proof-by-allegation, which is the standard used in cases like this, again because better-safe-than-sorry, at somebody else’s expense. Because the people involved don’t want to risk their career by running a risk with a newsworthy angle.

When you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Rape is symbolic of what police do. As a crime, rape is about violating someone else’s privacy or integrity, about imposing oneself on another. That is largely what police do in the rest of their work. They harass people, invade people’s privacy, violate their rights, inject themselves into situations where they are not needed (basically sticking their dicks in where they are not wanted). They extract bribes from drug dealers, pimps and prostitutes (i.e. they take what they want by force). It stands to reason that the kind of personality profile who is attracted to that type of job is the type of person who would have fewer moral misgivings about forcing themselves on an unwilling woman. And the mantra of cops dealing out gratuitous violence is invariably “stop resisting”, precisely what a rapist would say!

And yet it is the police who are often so willing to destroy the lives of innocent men falsely accused of rape, child sexual abuse, DV etc. Why? Part of it is simply that they project their own failings onto others, and judge others by their own standards. Because a lot of cops are shitbags and glorified criminals, they naturally assume that every other man they come across is also a shitbag who operates according to the same moral compass that they do. They tend to be paranoid and assume that a larger section of the public are likely offenders who need to be controlled. They look at any situation and consider what they would do in that situation, and then project that onto others based on their own baser instincts. No doubt many cops see their role, particularly the kind of ‘white knighting’ and protecting women, as almost a kind of moral redemption. If they make enough human sacrifices of their fellow men, perhaps their sins will be absolved. As they say, hypocrisy is the deference vice pays to virtue.

Police also tend to see themselves as the alpha males on the patch, the women as their harem, while the rest of the civilian male population are basically competition for the available pussy to be fought and eliminated. This is the mindset of a primitive, neanderthal male. It is not unknown for police to turn up to a domestic dispute or some such, beat the crap out of the man, and then hit on the woman.

But hey, at least this way the government can pretend they’re doing something useful and use the whole thing for political credit.

Good job, terrorists, great success.
