We should probably stop calling every stylized heart a pedophile logo. Everyone uses heart symbols innocently all the time. So, at least don't lead with that, or it looks like we're trying to build a narrative based around a preconceived notion that we got from the logo.
I'm not saying it isn't a pedophile logo, I'm just saying we should emphasize the other facts and the real connections.
It's also a note that the pedo community adopted those PRE EXISTING logos a while ago, and have mostly stopped using them because of awareness. The FBI was onto those logos about a decade or more ago. A heart and a hand in hand logo isn't necessarily weird for a charity to use. Especially ones with kids.
