Not ironic, it’s projection. They know how much pedophilia is rampant on their side so they have to say the left are the real pedophiles to save face

I have a different take; they don't actually believe their side has pedophiles at all. Think back to their defences of Roy Moore; the main defense wasn't that his creeping and pedophilia was okay. Instead they simply dismissed it as untrue.

Their outlook is fundamentally factionalistic, an us-versus-them cesspool in which we are always virtuous and they are always degenerates. Our side can't possibly be shitty. They're on our side after all.

Shitheel arguments nearly always, sooner or later, come down to fingers-in-the-ears denialism.

Actually there are pedos on both sides and we (the right) know it.. starting with hollywood (all lefties) lots of pedos. Government and world leaders right & left pedos. Why does it matter if you are right or left if you're a pedo that's all you will ever need in my book.

No shit, Sherlock. I never said that the left doesn't have pedophiles. Of course there are pedophiles on both sides. My actual point is that the right refuses to believe this, and instead they insist that all pedophiles are on the left. Or at least they refuse to believe any example of a right-wing pedophile, dismissing it as "fake news," which is functionally the same result.

The guy you're replying to is an r/conspiracy regular, I'm guessing denying reality is a favorite pastime for him.
