I made this post on tumblr but I believe it’s important enough that I should post it here.
While the server itself seems to be opposed to pedophilia, it also seems to have a lot of them on it and mods aren’t doing anything about it.
For example, there has recently been a discussion on the suggestions channel where a person suggested adding a rule that would be against pedos. During it another person mentioned that this way they’ll ban 60% of the server.
Needless to say the conversation got nuked by the moderators and the rule wasn’t added.
There was also a person on the mod team who groomed minors but they seem to be gone now.
Another thing is that I encountered many people who showed red flags and/or had accusations against them that were still on the server.
Besides that there appearantly used to be a mod who was a pedo but according to mods that wasn’t very clear. They say the accuser was a transphobe but idk if that’s true or not. They don’t want to contact police or even discord on the topic. They tend to ban any conversation on the topic from the server, including people who mention it.
Just in general, don’t go there. Stick to Tumblr, raddle etc.
So wait all of this is based on your expectation that trans people should report every instance of harassment and abuse to the very transphobic police? And the failure to do so indicates that the initial troll was right? That’s… a lot.
Why are people eating this up again? Definitely not because of right wing conspiracies getting advanced.
I mean, shouldn’t all instances of pedophilia be reported to the police? And I don’t even know if they’re a troll or not. That’s what I heard from the headmod, no one else on the mod team wanted to anwser me. And how do I even know if they’re a troll or not? And the person that she mentions didn’t seem like a troll. They brought attention to the situation but were polite and took down the post when the headmod asked them to.
And I already said that I support trans people. I ignore any form of propaganda spewed by fascist and the far right. I’m queer myself. Why would I go against trans people? I never said transexuality means you’re a pedo. I didn’t even say the ex mod was trans, since I don’t know them. I don’t understand your last two sentences.
You don’t mention pedophilia in your screenshots and at this point I’d be a fool to believe a word you say
Well then can you at least see my links I sent recently? A person there says that the second 196 cord is like this one but with more pedos.
And there is literally a mention of one of the ex mods having accusations of being a pedo, not to mention a person supporting the age of consent from 16 yo, not to mention accusations of a user being a pedo. How did I not mention pedophilia? Did you click on the links?
Would you be able to report it?
I already did. I even had a phone call with the police if I’m doing the reporting correctly. Due to exposing my profiles and places I go to to them, I already showed I’m queer and I support every group of LGBT+. I was scared as fuck when I did all that but the fear of someone being hurt by a pedo outweight that other fear.
Honestly I still have shivers and I’m still scared of what the police thinks of me. But I didn’t want to risk it.
So your dog water claim that “(all) police are transphobic and therefore trans people should be exempt from repercussions like any normal person would be who is guilty of wrongdoing” Is less absurd than what OP is saying happened??? Holy hell you are so delusional that I can’t
Not everything is, “right pweopull bad” ffs
The comment you responded to makes no claim that all police are transphobic, nor that trans people should be exempt from repercussion. They’re saying that it is unreasonable to expect someone to purposely place themselves in danger to protect others.
I’m queer too but I still reported the topic to the police. While the police can be pretty anti LGBT+, the institution still is forced to act when a crime is reported. A trans person will not be put in danger just because they reported something to the police, that’s not how police brutality works. Now, if they were on the streets alone and some cops that happened to be transphobic were near by, then there is absolutely the risk of being attacked, which is just fucked up. But reporting things isn’t putting yourself in danger. They probably know you’re trans either way due to documents a person uses. As for the doxxing, the police is there to act when someone threatens you. That’s their job. Letting someone send you threats will only make the situation worse. If they don’t act, you can pursue legal action. I could see there being a problem if it was one person but they have a whole team of mods that can support them.
I’m sorry but if you are taking on being a mod, you should be aware of the fact that situations like these will happen. It’s inevitable, people are just pieces of shit sometimes. But it’s your job to counter act it. If you’re not mentally healthy enough, then don’t moderate online spaces. You think why I avoid moderating like a plague?
Fuck off
