Wasn't there some actual study that found that a really astonishingly high number (like, 97%) of all convicted pedophiles were Star Trek fans?

I remember reading an article which was talking about Star Trek conventions and early internet newsgroups etc being used as places where paedophiles met and exchanged child pornography - paedophiles and Star Trek fans both being early adopters of the internet. I guess also its easy to fake an interest in Star Trek and join their convention (rather than a Dentist Convention or other professional network) and find other paedos. Also, probably unaccompanied minors there :stonk:

Edit: I don't think it was the Huff Post Article, but it sounds like it used the same LAPD statement as a basis.

Are they just labeling all nerd poo poo they see as Star Trek? Surely comic books and anime are just as, if not more, prominent. Geek culture has been drifting away from Star Trek for a long time. What about Star Wats for God's sake?
