Just had to report a literal pedophile on Reddit (infosec.pub)

I got a reply to a comment I made about how upsetting that picture going around of Trump and Ivanka on a motorcycle when she was younger is. Somebody replied something along the lines of "a dad should be able to take a picture with his daughter," and I replied back, thinking maybe he was just kind of oblivious and didn't understand why it was so upsetting.

Then I looked at his comment history, and now I want to puke. I reported him but given that one of his comments has already been removed (can't even imagine what that one must have said to get removed while the others haven't) I'm guessing Reddit isn't going to do shit about it. Maybe this guy is just trolling, I don't know and I don't care that shit is not ok.

Why are you on Reddit?

[–] AcidiclyBasicGlitch@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Short answer: I don't know anymore.

Long answer: I used to use it for local shit only, but then I got sucked into the 50501 sub bc it was helpful to keep up with things that didn't get reported by most news networks when Trump first tried to do a federal takeover of LA.

There is a local clone here, but is much smaller

It blows my mind that people still use reddit, but not really. I mean, people suck and are the reason we can't have nice things.

You're gonna get banned once the mods see it

[–] AcidiclyBasicGlitch@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 days ago

Reason: Impingement of freedom to openly promote and defend pedophelia. That's gotta be in the constitution somewhere, right?

If not, I'm sure it will make it into whatever autogenerated copy regulatory AI deems acceptable to save in the historical archives.

You do know you took the troll bait, right?

Not until I looked at his history, and like I said, even if he is a troll that shit is disgusting and not ok to say even if you're "trolling." Wtf kind of shit is that? Especially knowing there are indeed a lot of pedos that enjoy the thrill of getting away with doing/saying taboo shit out in the open like that, then when they get busted pretending like its all just an unnecessary and overblown reaction. Fuck that.

If I can get permabanned from a subreddit for sharing factual information Republicans want to keep under wraps, I would assume mods of a leftist sub like 50501 would want to permaban somebody defending Trump and promoting pedophelia, no?
