There are numerous analogies to present day reality that may be of relevance to MAPs and allies. Using them considerately in a debate can be turned to your advantage.
- Witch hunting. Literature, suspicion, and show trials are all very similar. Guilt is assumed from the beginning, hearsay is enough to convict, and reasoned explanations are ignored.
- Homosexuality. Both are seen as aberrant as opposed to adaptive, owing to an oversimplification of evolutionary theory and hangover from religious assumptions about wasteful indulgence. Both have been described as unnatural and treated with behavioral and aversion therapies - crude experimental sciences such as phallometry are deployed. Both presented as predatory and corrupting, with little analysis of motives or objective reality. Homosexuality was first presented by scientists as gender "inversion". Pedosexuality is still often presented as chronological inversion/regression.
- Onanism/Masturbation: Similar to CSA, since masturbation was defined as self-abuse and led to shame and aversion in children. Academics have compared the previous pathologisation of self-gratifying sexual behavior in children with conceptions of present day "sexualised" children who court "bad touch" - even seeking pleasure with other childen or adults.
A Holocaust comparison can be dismissed at this point, however Minor Attracted People and adjacent academics often live like pre-holocaust middle-class Jews in Germany - i.e. second-class citizens who must hide their identity and might be targeted/raided at any time. A genuine holocaust is an obvious aspiration of some vigilantes and extremists.
