How Youtube caters to Pedophiles

Pretty sure that's done algorithmically. The staff has no control over that.
But what you're essentially saying here is that people, anyone, with what people consider unhealthy fantasies should never have those fantasies. This is going to be an absolute hell for those people. A fantasy is that person's only outlet, only legal outlet, for their sexual desires and it would be madness to take that away from them. Repression is not a good thing and as all psychologists know, can have terrible consequences; it can lead to violence, rape, murder and all sorts of crazy nasty things. To deny people their fantasies would be tantamount to the worst repression possible and eventually lead to a worse outcome than you were originally trying to stop. These people have no legal outlet for their sexual desires whatsoever if we were to follow your line of thought and that can only ever end badly. A sexual fantasy is one of a person's most intimate outlets and I am not one for saying what should and should not go on in a person's head.
I believe it depends upon which forum the thread is posted in as to whether it can become featured. Staff don't pick featured threads but we can unfeature.

I might be considered a mass murderer on certain days in rush hour standard if that criterion was held to.
What drives me nuts is the opposition to an activity, anime videos, that could lower incidences just as regular porn lowers rape. Yes, it is creepy and ooky by most of our standards. We don't have to watch those videos. But those videos are far preferred to actual children being molested.

No one is making excuses for pedophilia.
Yes. We don't encourage people to act on their mental disorders. We help them to manage and mitigate the symptoms, not to act on them. People have fantasies about suicide too, but we most certainly don't encourage that and we refer people to help networks whenever those fantasies or ideations come up.
The medical community says what should and should not go on in a person's head all the time. It's the reason classifications for mental disorders exist. If you're fantasizing about having sex with prepubescent children, there's something deeply wrong with you and you need help. (General "you" of course.) Pedophiles are commonly prescribed medication that lowers their sex drive. If we don't have a cure for pedophilia, then we can at least do our best to inhibit their sex drive as much as possible and teach them how to manage the symptoms of their disorder. We can give them support networks to lead healthy lives despite their conditions. Just because their whacking it to videos of kids on YouTube is legal doesn't mean we should encourage it or say it's okay. Alcoholism is perfectly legal, but we don't just keep rationing bottles of beer to alcoholics because drinking alcohol is legal.
Sorry but there can be no possible reason a thread in Morals and Ethics category is not eligible for featured status, try again!!
I can see where you are coming from, but we are on different wavelengths here. I'm of the opinion it would be better to give them a healthy outlet instead of repressing their drive altogether. Also, I'm not sure if sex-drive reducing drugs work all that well on women but I could well be wrong.
Are you now complaining because your thread isn't featured? You'll have to take that up with the software.
I had to look RedTube up. Oh my. There were not huskies on there. No rabbits either.
They have that outlet already; there's no law about getting off to almost anything you want to which isn't already banned by law (zoophilia, child pornography, etc.). My thing is getting them to not need to resort to that outlet in the first place.
And yeah, no clue on sex-drive reducing drugs. I just use People of Walmart as needed.

Do people in dog and rabbit costumes count?
Depends on which people are in them I suppose.
None of the people on that RedTube were wearing costumes or anything else.
She's joshing with you.
Sorry. So was I. Perhaps I did not do too well at getting that across.
Sometimes, I am a bad rabbit.
Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Every proverbial grandma with gray hair and blue cat eye glasses with a dangling gold chain that ever watched peoples children's gawd awful home movies and commented about how darling they are , happen to be pedos?
I mean thats likely the largest demographic of people who ever watch those videos.
