This is objectively, scientifically and biologically just not true.

Objectively, scientifically, and biologically speaking, pedophilia is equally "harmless", but it is still rightfully reviled and those who practice it violently repressed and eliminated from society, as they should be. Incest of any kind is in the same vein looked down upon for similar reasons, morally.

Not true, science has determined that humans brains don’t fully mature until around 18-25 years of age so children scientifically are unable to consent, therefore pedophilia is exploitative rape in all cases.

Besides the mental aspect of it even their physical bodies aren’t ready for penetration either and it’s objectively physically harmful as well.

Incest of any kind is in the same vein looked down upon for similar reasons, morally.

No incest is looked down upon because most of the population is straight and has a built in Westernmarck Effect revulsion of incest in order to prevent genetically damaging inbreeding. Consensual adult homosexual incest isn’t harmful in the slightest and is not even remotely similar to pedophilia even on the basis of it’s taboo. (Unless you’re referring to certain types of incest like intergenerational parent/child which I would agree is actually similiar to pedophilia since it’s a grooming type relationship, but incest between siblings or cousins of a similiar age isn’t even in the same ballpark as pedophilia.)
