i genuinely don't think that you are noticing a pattern WITHIN the anarchist community but more with like society as a whole? speaking purely from numbers, it is statistically inevitable that there will be creeps in a community if it is big enough. if you are looking at a group to be mad at for breeding creeps, i suggest targeting the rich (specifically the generationally ultrawealthy) since the way that they grow up gives them an entitled mindset that could make them see other people as objects and therefore not respect their consent and autonomy, and their obscene wealth allows them to hire the best lawyers to get them through legal loopholes.
if you are looking specifically for something that might attract sex offenders, my best guess is the public's perception of anarchy being that of unbridled chaos and lawlessness, which COULD seem enticing to absolute sickos who are looking to get away with the crimes they've committed. i don't think that it is a problem with anarchy itself, but more with public perception, because (at least in my understanding), those who actually read into anarchy for like twenty minutes by a nonpartisan or unbiased source they would get that anarchists do not want lawlessness and chaos generally, but the return of power to the people, which means that the PUBLIC would punish crimes committed and not some higher authority.
assuming good faith from OP on this one
