    Wasn’t the paedophilia thing something related to a comparison with homosexuality? Like homosexuality was illegal and so paedophilia so they compared the absurd of one with the other? Maybe im wrong tho.

    Camus was an anarchist iirc, so iugh.

      yeah iirc the 1977 petition was because sodomy was legal at 18 yet hetero sex was legal at 15. At this level it’s fine but Foucault and Sartre took it further by arguing that minors were capable of sexual relations. Foucault called consent a “contract” and said it can’t accurately determine the actual feelings of the people in the relationship which just comes off kind of strange to me

      Camus wasn’t only an anarchist he actively protested the USSR and said it wasn’t socialist at all
