In case you're still doubting that fascism and the genocide is here:

A self-described “child-protection organization” which campaigned for normalizing pedophilia as a sexual identity has ceased operations citing a “shift” in the political “climate.” Established in 2018, the Prostasia Foundation was a charity registered in the state of California that has advocated for the rights of “minor-attracted persons,” or MAPs.

Despite claiming to be motivated by a desire to eradicate child sexual abuse, the organization’s efforts had dedicated themselves to crusades against child pornography bans, letter-writing campaigns to state representatives demanding child-like sex dolls be kept legal, and funding research into “fantasy sexual outlets” for pedophiles. Prostasia has also condemned anti-pedophile sentiment as harmful “Nazi-like” rhetoric and called for its mass censorship across social media.

A recent announcement published in Prostasia’s September Newsletter explains that the charity has terminated operations, with the charity’s blog and social media accounts being permanently archived.

“When Prostasia was founded in 2018, there was a spirit of greater openness to evidence-based discussions of CSA and its connection with pedophilia and to non-carceral approaches to preventing sexual violence,” reads the statement. “But in the years that followed, until 2021 when Prostasia was at its most active, the climate shifted. Movements across the political spectrum hardened the discourse, and our mission became increasingly contentious.”

Prostasia’s announcement further claims that the organization “faced a persistent wave of misinformation and smear campaigns,” leading to an “uphill battle” to continue their MAP advocacy.
