Flagged for witch hunting, and misrepresenting the situation, as described by other commenters in this thread.
I debunked their comments. So please remove your flag. You are literally flagging a post exposing a child porn up loader. You want that on your record so be it.
The evidence is there, in plain sight. I never accused the followers of @IAmGod of anything, I merely accused the people who UP VOTED specific posts that were CHILD PORN.
The commentators you are referencing are denying that girls under 18 topless showing their nipples is child porn. Or that a girl under 18 in a thong marked NSFW because it is NSFW is not child porn when it is. Go look at the evidence yourself.
Stop letting commentators lie and change your opinion, just go look at the evidence.
Lastly this is not a witch hunt, that is something commonly thrown at people trying to expose evil.
oh you debunked them by being ignorant? Titusfrost - you are a bully.
I am sorry, that you have had to face so much backlash, when all you were trying to do is clean Steemit. The photos are suggestive, the girls are made to look younger than 18, with the aim to attract closet Peadophiles. And that is disgusting. Not only are the photos suggestive, some are topless and the last post is a naked girl flaunting her privates. With lewd comments like "sexy" posted under it. So it most definitely is PORN. And you have done the correct thing by bringing it to light. With 13 year olds being allowed on Steemit, there should be no obscene, pornographic content allowed, at all.
In short, things that we don't want our kids, nieces, nephews etc seeing, should not be uploaded. We all have a moral obligation, to do our part as moderators, by flagging lewd posts and taking action against the culprit. Instead of fighting over semantics, about it being a peadophile ring or not, everyone who feels porn on Steemit should banned, should flag any pornographic posts they come across. Similar action should be taken against those who aprreciate that content, by actively commenting and encouraging such posts, like @wix did when he wrote "sexy" , after looking at a naked girl flaunting her privates.
Followers and upvoters, may not even have a clue about what they voted on, thanks to the various voting services that many of us use. In such a senario, harassing them is not fair either. But all said and done, please stop this fight over semantics and focus on the real issue. The only question here is, "are those posts offensive and lewd?", if yes then join hands to prevent this from happening again.
Why is that? Do you wish to tailor steemit's content to the lowest common denominator?
Why do you want to prevent offensive or lewd content from being posted?
Thank you demotrunk! He just destroyed my profile with this witchhunt.
Why don't you explain you side of the story, and request these people to remove the flags they have cast? Maybe, you can make everyone understand that, you were not at fault and were just unlucky enough, to get caught in the crossfire. And don't worry, this too shall resolve itself. :)
I did write a post about it - this comment was one of the first I wrote and it was before I wrote the post. But thank you! :)
This is really sad. Trying to force your point of view by flagging a person trying to warn people of something that could be easily described offensive if nothing else!?
Do you believe that serious accusations require strong evidence?
Yes, I do believe that serious accusations require strong evidence. But, I also believe that strong evidence is a very slippery thing.
Logically speaking:
In this case strong evidence would be a "real" child porn picture, something that I believe non of the steemians, including the accuser, want to see or search for, in case they may be found guilty as well.
You said yourself that you haven't looked at all the pictures for that reason (or am I wrong?). In this case, you have no way of disproving the accusation as being false. Hence, attacking it on that level of lack of strong proof is invalid.
Considering the scenario that @titusfrost found strong evidence, if they shared that evidence with everyone else, they will be condemned for advertising for child porn and in this case @titusfrost will be as guilty as @iamgod in distibuting child porn.
The issue as I see it: We are all strangers from around the world. We all come here to make friends, make money, share our thoughts and share many other things. We trust each other by default (at least 50%) that every person is nice/innocent until proven otherwise.
It is inevitable that there will be evil people everywhere we go. Now the question. Do I trust my fellow steemian who is warning me about something that looks fishy (even if not completely illegal in someone's point of view)? or do I trust the steemian posting the fishy stuff?
I could do either of the following:
1- trust the accuser 100%
2- distrust the accuser 100%
3-trust the accuser 70% and be aware of things in case they turned to be incorrect.
In either case, it is only smart to keep in mind that the accusation are real and be aware to act fast if the fire started spreading.
Finally, many people are abused around the world but have no ability/power to speak up or ask for protection (for some reason or another). Does that mean they weren't wronged? Does that mean the abuser haven't done anything wrong? Not at all. Yet, the abuser lives free while the abused pay for the pain and humiliation for the rest of their life (psychologically at least)
One has to prove that the other party is guilty, one doesn't have to prove that he is innocent. We haven't seen yet any proof of the accusation, it seems like normal porn and photos from metart. The titles are just clickbait like the ones you can find on any porn website. And no the community wont go over hundreds of porn posts to find out if it's true or not, if you have a proof go to the local autorities to report it.
Proof can work either way, for guilt and for innocence.
Those who are innocent can prove their good intention to other steemians and build trust and reputation, like many others are doing.
I mentioned that I know many of the followers and that I dont think they are the type of people who will endorse pedophilia or porn on steemit at least.
