TBH I'd rather donate to a serial killer that can realistically harm a dozen of people at most, than a person willfully supporting a global child molestation ring harming thousands annually and holding back the society for centuries.
What a deplorable take. Is the 10-year-old child living in the USA who says "I love my country" morally responsible for the war in Iraq? Is the 10-year-old Saudi Arabian saying "I love my country" morally responsible for 9/11? By what mechanism does your standard spare any human being at all, ever, from total moral condemnation?
A 10-year-old isn't a willful supporter of these causes.
