Consensual sex with prostitutes cannot in any rational sense be termed “wicked”, and there is basically zero reason to think he diddled children, soooo were you just passing the time with free association or what?
He hired a boy in Tunisia and engaged in "sex magick" with him, according to multiple sources, and it wasn't an isolated accident. Do of that what you will.
Decades of studying his life says you’re going to have to do better than “according to multiple sources”, unless you’re just joining the strangely “still ongoing 100 years later” tabloid smear campaign. There’s plenty to question without fabricating nonsense.
Dude his books literally mention that child sacrifice is the most powerful form of sacrifice and thereby the most abundant source of magical power... then he goes on to say "but I dont condone that or anything... wink wink nudge nudge"
He had at least 1 child die of straight up neglect because he went out of his way to find the most messed up alcoholic woman he could find to procreate with so that she would be easy to manipulate. When Crowley says he is wicked he is not bullshitting. The guys lifes mission was to transgress every boundary that exists in the western world. Why would you have trouble believing that he harmed children?
Beyond that though, he openly brags about raping (though he frames it as consensual) his friend and apprentice victor noidburg.
Crowley apologists make no sense to me. The guy went out of his way to be evil in every way imagineable. Why wouldnt you believe that he's evil?
