Context: Samuel R. Delany is a prolific sci-fi author who: is gay, was sexually abused as a kid (but denies it was abuse), and grew up to believe that man/boy sexual relationships should not be criminalized.
READ IT -> I've written about him in an earlier dramapost <- READ IT
Despite his love of man/boy child abuse, Delany continues to have a huge fandom - particularly among people who normally love a good cancellation (again, read my previous post). On Monday, The New Yorker published a charming interview with him which included a reference to him "once praising a NAMBLA newsletter". In reality, he has his own page on the NAMBLA website and has been very explicit over the years, including this quote from a 2009 biography:
Today, The New Yorker piece made it's way to Hacker News. The thread isn't very long, but the takes are entertaining:
What's "transitive" about Delany's support for NAMBLA? They have one policy and it's in their fricking name.
2009 is well over two decades ago
Why are you going digging in for dirt in someone's comment history to defend a NAMBLA supporter?

This does remind me of a funny SNL sketch with Steve Buscemi who plays a highschool football coach, who despite not being accused of anything, gets investigated for pedophilia because of what he looks like
Anyway in the sketch bill Hader plays a member of nambla who comes to the highschool and clarifies that Steve isn't in their organisation, not would they have wanted "someone like him" within their organisation. It was funny, I laughed

I was so fricking disappointed when I found out Allen Ginsberg was an unironic supporter of NAMBLA. He was my favourite of the Beat Poets, after Kerouac (of course), and I even had front-row seats for a performance of his when in played in my town in the 90s.
I'm pretty vanilla sexually, and while I don't normally begrudge even the freakiest of people indulging their kinks, I do however draw the line at children. Every person deserves an innocent childhood, and the right to enter into sexuality on their own terms.
"Never meet your heroes", as the old saying goes.....

The Beat movement was all degenerate whiny addict losers who revelled on selfishness and wordswordswords over how stealing, beating their girlfriends and generally being massive pieces of shit was like societies fault man. They truly heralded the downfall of American society and have been copied by so many hack writers since that anything they did that was unique now looks the way it always should have- utterly derivative vapid bullshit

What does supporting NAMBLA even mean? Do they just straight up want gay pedophilia? Like, do they say "*wowie, I wish a 37yo could top a 13yo boy!" Do they realize how bad the optics on that sounds?

Because when a moderation team makes a decision to permit one of their own to break rules, troll the users, make the sub look bad, and above all, attract a very destructive brand of user from a very chaotic sub, it speaks to a moderation team that no longer cares about the sub or the wishes of the users in it. Look at all those /r/drama buttholes in this thread.
Everyone of these has been downmarseyd. Everyone has been filled with comments deriding them and asking for the mods to stop permitting this shit. They have ignored those. Likely brushing it off as "not a big deal".
What it really shows is they're letting their friend get off on his little hoppy of bringing attention to himself, not unlike a child, and they're definitely sitting in their groomercord laughing at the users bothered by it. Otherwise they'd do the reasonable thing and stop it.

It may seem paradoxical from my statement that generally speaking I think sexual relations between children and adults are likely to go wrong and that most of them are likely to be, start off as, or quickly become, abusive, that I also support a group like NAMBLA—which I do. But that’s because I feel one of the largest factors in the abuse is fostered by the secrecy itself and lack of social policing of the relationships.:
