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.

It sounds like you are eating up transphobic propaganda that trans people are pedos. I understand that they want to keep that kind of rhetoric off their comunity. I would probably think that 60% of the people on that server are trans, but pedos? No.

[–] Idontknow99@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

No, I'm not. The person who posted the thing about 60% of the server being pedos is trans themselves. And I'm also not transphobic, if that's what you wanted to know. I fully support everyone in the LGBT+ community and honestly anyone who tries to exclude a part of it is automatically cringe imo. And even If I were, I wouldn't be browsing and trying to keep up with the 196 alts.

And I'm not saying everyone on the discord is a pedo, that would be stupid and just not true. There are many people who are against pedos there, including many trans people. Heck, I even saw a person who was trans that actively pointed out some other users bullshit (the user in question basically saying that 16 yo should be able to consent and that it's legal in his country. He even appearantly did the thing with one himself. He's in his 20s btw). The problem is that I saw with my own eyes a lot of that very concerning behaviour and actual examples of what I'm talking about. That's also why I want to advise people from the community to not browse that discord and stick to other alternatives, especially since the mod teams seem to be much more trustworthy there.

Could you post more? Like a screenshot of that conversation you talked about? Or any more evidence towards it? If not, I would suggest gathering that information.

[–] Idontknow99@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

My conversation with the head mod on the topic of ex mod before I got banned from the server. I'll blur out the name if you think I should because I don't know if posting dms is appropriate but at the same time I want to show that the thing did happen. I'm sending photos because sending links to conversations doesn't work with dms.

They also still didn't say anything public and like I said, try to delete mentions of the topic.

[–] AngrilyEatingMuffins@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

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.

[–] Idontknow99@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

[–] solivine@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Would you be able to report it?

[–] Idontknow99@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

[–] howrar@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

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.

Screenshots of the person who argued 16 is ok for age of consent

[–] yetAnotherUser@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

There's... not really any braindead take on there? Sure, 16 and 20 is a bit creepy but it's not pedophilia, but closer to a possibly abusive relationship. And a sexual relationship between a 16 and 18 year old is unusual at worst tbh. And arguing for the age of consent to be 16 years is most certainly not pedophilia.

Link to a discourse about a person who was accused of being a pedo. One person said they're plat max while they themselves said that they explained the situation and apologized on twitter. I don't have access to their twitter so I don't know how the responce looks like.

[–] Idontknow99@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, I'll try to do that as soon as I can. I can't share the 60% conversation since it got nuked but I think I have some of the other messages screenshoted and I have links. Can I add it in comments or do I have to make a separate post for that?

[–] Nero@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

It sounds like you are eating up transphobic propaganda that trans people are pedos.

Sounds like you are completely deluded and gaslighting. Quite common in warped sense of reality. 🙂 OP said nothing of the sort, you're twisting the narrative.

Just in case, there's an 196 matrix space (unofficial and very empty atm) at https://matrix.to/#/#196:matrix.org

[–] DIGITALBoy@iusearchlinux.fyi 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I just joined, thanks for sharing the new space. Doesn't look like it allows new users to send any messages.

Edit:

Nvm my matrix client bugged out.

  1. Join a Discord server
  2. It's full of pedophiles

And you're surprised...?

[–] STUPIDVIPGUY@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

this is truth. Discord is a gathering place for these people. The fact that the sub has a lot of trans people isn't related

just be cool like me and get phone-number-walled off discord so you can't even join even if you wanted to 😎
