Fighting against pedophilia

How exactly is fighting against a mental illness going to solve anything? The majority of cases right now, Epstein, et all, are rapists not pedophiles in that context.

Pedophilia isn't going to magically dissapear, alas it should be less scrutinised such that those who are I'll are helped. Rape is a crime which should be fighted against, an illness is not a crime.

Let's not split hairs over rhetorics, we also call it "fight against cancer" and even though I'd love to see that bitch jailed it'll most likely never happen.

You're generally right of course, we have to choose the right way to fight different kinds of evil.
