I agree with you to a certain extent but sexual harassment and sex crimes would exist with or without capitalism and so both must be dealt with on their own terms, but the combination of the two must definitely be considered because they overlap heavily. I think your position is basically frustrated that the two are dealt with in a way that demonizes sexual harassment and sex crimes but gives capitalism an eternal pass, but you can still be open to hating both together and separately.



I'm really not trying to white knight priests and religion but I think the general perception that the priesthood attracts pedophiles is based on the reporting of pedophiles in the Catholic Church, which is really more based on the the Catholic Church covering up crimes from the top which feels like a betrayal of what people think religion should stand for and so it gets coverage in the same way that political corruption does. You'd need to look up actual statistics on priesthood pedophilia rates vs. rates of pedophilia in the general population to make the statement you're making though I'm not arguing that it would come up 50/50.
