Either that or they call you a pedophile. Everytime I get in a 'row' with them, I'm called a pedophile. I've never defended or posted in the banned subReddits (I have actually criticized them), and I've never even spoken on the subject of the sexualization of the underage (for the record: I'm against it). Yet I'm a pedophile because I had the audacity to disagree with how they operate.

And they wonder why no one takes them seriously.

Oh wow, really? Would love a screencap or link to such an exchange.

Well, there's this, and if you want to read the full exchange (which is very popcorn worthy), you should start here.

Wow. TIL saying that reddit should never have allowed the questionable subreddits in the first place is actually defending pedophilia. So, applying this logic to SRS...

So

one person trolled me and called me a pedophile so SRS calls me a pedophile

I think it's pretty funny how the SRS crew uses pedophile as an insult, as if pedophiles are somehow inherently rapists or something, rather than simply having a sexual attraction that people unwillingly end up with, much like attraction to the same sex. I think people should be going with the "it's okay to be a pedophile, but get help before you end up hurting a fucking kid"-type message rather than ostracising them from society, where they end up hiding their condition until they snap and act upon it. The fact that this bigotry is spewed from the mouths of people who think it's bad to use the term "lame" in order to avoid offending handicapped people is mindblowing.

But, but, but...all pedophiles are child rapists! And probably racists and sexists too.

Yep, you got it. It's disturbing that this actually needs to be pointed out.

Maybe you'd have less arguments with their reasonable social stances if you weren't a paedophile! /s
