I found that the members of r/luckystar were saying very sexual things about characters that, while 18, had very child like designs. And even if, they were saying shit like, “Cunny!” and, “Correction!” so, yeah.

I constantly reported all posts and comments like that I came across and eventually made a post asking why they were saying things like that. I wasn’t hostile, and was in fact, rather calm about the situation. Meanwhile, they were all extremely rude and hostile towards my post, calling me names and such, and about 20 minutes later, my account was shadowbanned.

So, not only did Reddit moderation side with the pedos, they didn’t even have the decency to tell me what I did wrong. Assuming how it all happened so suddenly, I’m just gonna assume the pedos all mass-reported my account for God knows what. Any and all appeals I’ve mad since then received no response.

I still stuck around for a few months after that, [that whole deal happened back in May of 2025.] but the extreme leftist political dooming invading every corner of the website I used made it absolutely miserable to use.

Tonight, I finally put my foot down and said, “I quit!” I discovered this website and made an account here. I guess you can use this post to welcome me to the Fediverse.

      If you’re the type to needlessly argue the difference, you’re putting a very distinct hat on that says “I am emotionally invested in people’s perception of child abusers” and I say child abusers as a catch-all for those who are in any way attracted to kids. Because pedos and child rapists are in the same group whether they touch kids or not.

      It’s similar, in my mind at least, to trying to separate the original WW2 nazis from modern day nazis by saying “The modern ones aren’t gassing minorities and invading poland so you HAVE to clarify which one’s you’re talking about.” As if they weren’t all part of the same group.

      In terms of what I’m actually trying to get across; be very wary of who you defend when trying to police speech, especially on the internet.

      I understand nuance is a thing but even I had to stop myself from assuming you’re the same as the “ackshually its ephebophilia so they’re not a pedo” crowd
