If everyone is perverted

While watching this movie while watching Foucault’s "History of Sexual Experience", I suddenly have a question, even if it is really a child molester, why should he be judged morally and legally?
Just say that he is really a child molester. How big is his crime?
Fetishism, pedophilia, homosexuality, masturbation, these fringe behaviors called sexual perversion, were initially rejected by people because they violated the will to power. When reading books, I have never been able to understand what the so-called power is and how it interacts with sex. However, one point of view is that these are valued by people because they start to suppress sexual impulses, so many sexual perversions have occurred instead. .
I can probably understand this as a result of sexual depression. I heard from a elder sister in the early years that before the Internet and new sexual concepts were opened up more than a decade ago, the probability of sexual harassment was higher on the subway or bus. When normal desires are not satisfied, other radical behaviors are born in disguise.
This should be in line with the low incidence of rape in countries where prostitutes are public. So it’s better to imagine that those so-called perverts are actually the weak in life, vulgarism, pedophilia, etc. They do not have a normal sex life, nor the courage to fight for a normal sex life, so they choose a comparison. Easy to obtain, or the sexual experience of the weaker (such as children).
Note that this does not include those who can get a normal sex life, more stimulating needs, such as SM, or 3P, group sex and so on. You can make a difference.
In fact, to understand this psychological background, due to the requirements of social stability, these sexual perversions were unacceptable and disgusting at the beginning. But these people are like disabled people. They are weak, or there is a problem in some aspect, or the silent majority, because they have no right to speak at all.
The reason why this movie is touching is that it gives an interesting perspective and has a strong sense of substitution. When Lucas was despised and abandoned by everyone, we felt the coldness of society.
I insist that in the process of human growth, there will always be some behaviors that are not late for oneself. There are so-called dirty thoughts behind people or in their minds, and normal people know how to control them with reason. Some people can't. It's like killing a person to be sentenced. This is from the perspective of equality of human rights, but with the addition of moral elements, things become complicated.
It is easy for people to stand on the commanding heights of morality, just as the headmaster of a kindergarten vomits when she hears the white liquid. She is not even willing to let Lucas approach her; and the manager of the supermarket even insults Lucas' son. There was also a butcher’s clerk who beat Lucas out of anger, and then the clerk threw Lucas out of the supermarket; there was also a big parent who drove away Lucas directly, and even beaten him to make trouble. The son of Lucas.
These people are too hateful. They have an advantage, an advantage in power or ability, and occupy a high ground. With a condescending posture, they have tried and even punished them. And the weak appear weak and incompetent to resist. Such people are confident that they represent normality, rationality, and maturity, so they dare to take action. This self-confidence is disgusting in the movie.
There are social rules in society, which are really the rules of the game that most people abide by. Fortunately, social development, such as masturbation is no longer a sinful thing, and derailment is becoming more and more understood by people. Of course, these views are often repeated. But I think there is one thing that can be done. Don't simply make a thing black and white, don't judge it.
Don't just assume, for example, what you want to think about the victim or your child, the complexity of the matter is far beyond our imagination. It's like maybe you will encounter an air crash, no one can say it is bad. Perhaps one person can never understand another person because you are not him.
