I am not sure why it was flagged but it is in part certainly due to people who don't like to even hear about the words sexism or transphobia but also probably because it had to do with HN being reluctant to engage in pure drama. This is a post about the (legitimate!) feelings of an individual who says it's been a hard year for him and than he met a avowed pedophile... Not sure how it HN is supposed reacting ? HN isn't exactly a support group although you can find very supportive and thoughtful comments. If you expect a whole community to always align with your point of view/moral expectations and not to have toxic elements, you have a recipe for being very very sad. I mostly see kind and thoughtful comments here, not people enabling abusers. You have the usual debate of course about if "believe the victims" means "believe blindly the victims" because it freaks men out to imagine that they may be falsely accused of rape (by an ex they haven't been exactly nice to ? likely). Some people will defend their status staunchly and some have more empathy. It is indeed quite sad story and maybe that avowed pedophile should be signaled to the police/called out so that people can protect themselves from them ? Maybe publicize Vanessa Springora's experience ? : https://www.theguardian.com/books/2021/feb/11/consent-by-vanessa-springora-review-a-memoir-of-lost-adolescence https://www.theguardian.com/books/2021/feb/11/consent-by-van... So I am not sure what your comment what your comment was expecting to achieve... Maybe you care to tell us what you expected ?
