The UK is in the middle of a huge scandal that prompted a national enquiry regarding actual physical harm done to countless teenage girls: in the hundreds for sure, probably in the thousands:
"PM announces national inquiry into grooming gangs"
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c7872pngj2qo https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c7872pngj2qo
Note that the PM eventually bowed and launched a national enquire due to pressure: it's not as if he's a white knight here.
For it was all covered up by local politicians and police (some of which whom, for sure, also abused the girls) for fear of showing certain communities in a bad light (that's the official statement of several police officers as to why the countless reports of rape weren't followed).
It's great to "think about the children" but the UK should first look into why the number of rapes in the UK went 10x from 2000 to now. Ten fold. 10x. In a quarter of a century. What happened to the UK?
So the UK protecting children: remains to be seen.
As a sidenote there feels like there's an hint of posing here by BlueSky too: many call that social network "PedoSky" and the reason for it is many people with very dubious behaviour who couldn't silence their critics on Twitter/X moved to BlueSky. You know which kind of people: those who'll say it's acceptable to be attracted by children as long you don't physically do anything to them, those men wearing women outfit and dancing salaciously under the pretext that it's "art". They are on BlueSky, that's a fact. Hence, maybe, the posturing by BlueSky now.
I see that announcement as a safe haven for pedos teaming up with a government actively involved in the coverup of massive rape rings operation.
But I take it we should all applaud because it's all done in very good faith?
It's Orwellian stuff.
