Who had "sex trafficking at Comic Con" on today's bingo card?
@WordsmithFL There is a disturbing number of people ok with hentai depicting children with the anime and comic events. It's colored my view of anime and comics.
@AnnetteTRemain I've been around the con scene since the 1980s. It's always been there. Certain authors were rumored to be stalking underaged girls.
@WordsmithFL @AnnetteTRemain same here. Been around the con world for ages, and wow are some folx ever creepy.
And now I'm starting to remember old rumors of certain male actors taking advantage of young girls. Nothing proven, until Cas Anvar, but I sure saw my share.
I had a friend who wrote for a certain SF TV series. A woman was going around on social media claiming he recruited her into bizarre sexual acts. I seriously doubt it was true, but boy howdy she came after anyone who asked her for proof.
@WordsmithFL Can false accusations happen? Absolutely. It also happens too often where people abuse and get away with it for years because victims won't come forward. If someone is creating or getting off on certain "art" then I think it clearly shows where their interests are. @joycereynoldsward
@WordsmithFL It is very very very very very very very very very easy to find anime on X and other places where it's clear some are pushing it as socially acceptable to get off on kids. I'm not even talking about adults acting like kids I think we all know what they show. @joycereynoldsward
