I can't find this. I was curious what context it was in. This month old thread on pedos doesn't show any support for them.

Defending pedophiles now. What a gem.

Lol. So anybody that disagrees with you is 'defending pedophiles'? Holy shit. Way to totally ignore his point. What's funny is that you could have countered with hundreds of other examples of pro pedo shit on reddit. Reddit is a cesspool. However, /u/americanmuskrat is simply showing that your evidence is weak (which it is). Maybe he's trying to help you build a stronger case against pedos on reddit? Have you considered that? Assuming he's automatically defending them is ridiculous.

Thank you

Nah, it's a pattern of behavior.

That is a disingenuous argument. Please avoid dragging down the discussion.

It's an observation. It's just bizarre to see people attempt this.

I showed no support for pedophiles, I questioned with your premise.

Your ad hominem attacks drag the conversation down the pyramid. I'm not debating with you on this, I'm informing you. It's got to stop. You're killing potential discussion instead of creating it.

It's not an ad hominem attack. An ad hominem attack is something like "you are an ass hat". Questioning the premise of the opponent is legitimate. It's bizarre that someone, upon seeing anti-pedophilia downvoted, would post a comment seeking to delegitimize it.

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yes, I questioned your premise and what I said had nothing to do with supporting pedophilia whatsoever. Your argument is a fallacious one against me, not my argument.

I'm almost 100% positive the screen shot has taken out of context. I posted supporting evidence, a recent thread dealing with the topic of pedos that was not positive, and I searched for the comment posted but could not find it.

And your response is that I support pedophilia? That is nonsensical. More is expected from you than that here, and this is your heads up.

CITIZEN: Are you pro-crime? CRIMINAL: Of course not. I absolutely disavow crime.

What you see in the thread about pedophilia you found by a keyword search is a population evincing normative socialization regarding pedophilia.

What's shown in the screenshot is that same population's reactions to a user who overtly opposes pedophilia registered in silent downvotes accumulating over three years in a dead thread with no one watching.

Reddit threads go into archival mode after 6 months, no more votes. There's no context for this screenshot and no proof it didn't say something entirely else before it was downvoted. Why didn't it include more of the thread, that's unusual.
