By his own admission he's had user mentions turned off for years. Avoiding trolls isn't nearly as hard as people here are making it seem. If you don't want to deal with trolling, don't become the CEO of reddit immediately after their ridiculous community ousted Ellen Pao. The mainstream media and an awful lot of the internet (including the majority of users on this site) paint Trump supporters as racist, sexist, homophobic, uneducated, etc. on a daily basis, but calling spez a pedo is somehow beyond the pale? And that justifies him editing user posts to appear as if they've said something they haven't?
- Mithaldu 10y ago> Avoiding trolls isn't nearly as hard as people here are making it seem If you truly believe this then you're amazingly ignorant. I'd rather believe you're trolling on this matter than imagine someone this ignorant. Also, feel free to answer on this, but i don't believe i'll be arsed to respond to you further.
- rfrank 10y agoIf you truly believe internet randos are some unstoppable force of human nature, then you're amazingly ignorant, and probably cripplingly sensitive. That must suck, sorry about that.

Racism, sexism, homophobia and lack of education are not crimes, and never imply criminal activity that police actively investigate. Pedophilia is not a crime but implies a proclivity towards actions that are a crime and that police actively investigate. Yes, implying or directly accusing someone of harboring an innate proclivity for sexually abusing children does exceed in severity accusations of racial, gender, or anti-gay bias or lack of education. That people who proudly and on national media flaunt these attributes in themselves is evidence of such.
- rfrank 10y agoPeople in the mainstream media and online do defend pedophilia though [1-4]. If both aren't crimes, I see no meaningful difference in the accusations. 1. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/06/opinion/pedophilia-a-disorder-not-a-crime.html?_r=0 http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/06/opinion/pedophilia-a-disor... 2. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/08/20/why-we-understand-so-little-about-pedophilia-and-sex-crimes-against-children/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/08/2... 3. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/sex-between-students-and-teachers-should-not-be-a-crime/2013/08/30/dbf7dcca-1107-11e3-b4cb-fd7ce041d814_story.html?wprss=rss_homepage https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/sex-between-students... 4. https://reddit.com/r/pedofriends https://reddit.com/r/pedofriends
