That doesn't even make sense... Are they saying that pedos aren't assholes or that they are immortal?
I don't understand...

Pretty sure it references “The good die young, but assholes live forever”

Often used when some (asshole) does something potentially dangerous or exploitative and survives/walks away unscathed or with little consequences but other (innocent/good) people die as a result of their actions.

Examples: car crash with drunk driver that kills other people but not the driver,extreme price hikes on life saving medicine by a CEO, (or in this image) child abusers that are allowed to continue to exist in society.

I think the 'assholes live forever' is just branding. Like a brand that's 'edgy'.
