Going on with Lecter's views on radicalized anti-c's. I think a lot of it comes from something called internalized pedophobia (fear of children), and a lot of MAPs suffer from it without even realizing it.
What this pedophobia does is that it causes you to stay away from children, because you feel as if you're a potential danger to children. This negatively affects a MAP's mental state and their views on how children should
be treated.

It's part of why I think therapy is SO important to MAPs, because a proper psychologist can help them address it, which will be better in the long run. As someone who used to dissolve in their own internalized
pedophobia, it's sad that so many Twitter MAPs/antis see it as a "virtue".
