To the extent the Council reduced discipline within the Church, yes. My point was the higher reception of gays into the priesthood, the lower standards for morality on the part of bishops, the cronyism of the bishops themselves and the weakening of Vatican control over wayward bishops, the teaching of a liberalized moral theology in the seminaries that implicitly affirmed deviant sexuality, and the diminishment of the faith overall in the conciliar Church, gave impetus to the corruption that resulted.
All of these things you are talking about would have taken years to occur, after promulgation of Vatican II. Instead, you are saying that events which were already in full swing by the START of the council were caused by RESULTS of the council. Not possible.

Most of the pedophile priests had long exited seminaries by 1962. Only a tiny portion of the cases were committed by priests who went through post-concillar seminaries.
>>the cronyism of the bishops themselves<<
This is undeniably a part of the problem.
