maximumuncle#9112 seems like a discord username.

Discord was my guess before reading because of some of the videos people make about these kind of groups on discord.

Discord has a huge problem with grooming and exploiting children. Snapchat and Roblox too. A while back I dated a guy with an 11 year old kid. That kid was talking to, sharing photos, and even his location with strangers. I reported it to Discord. I think they handled it, but they made me go through the conversation and mark all of the nudity individually. It fucking sucked and it made me angrier.

As soon as I saw this article, I knew it would be Discord.

I will never understand how people as deranged as this guy can still get by unnoticed in normal society

[–] [email protected] 17 points 18 hours ago

Those people spend almost all of their time focused on not getting caught, the rest of us spend almost all of our time trying to remember groceries to buy and after school events kids need to be transported to and Co workers birthdays and etc.

Also, we're generally social creatures who want to trust each other and cooperate and stuff

Have you seen society? There are literally billions of us!

And a lot of them are in positions of power.

Some people are just better at wearing a mask than most.

Joss Whedon became a doctor?!?

Man from the title it sounded pretty aweful but good to know it was limited to strong language usage.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

He has extensive experience as a script doctor.
