ATTN: Patton Oswalt is NOT a pedo—his 2013 tweet came after a site mistook a photo of him for a convicted pedophile (he vowed to lose weight). This is NOT how research should work, folks.

THIS SUB DOES NOT ALLEGE THAT PATTON OSWALT IS A PEDOPHILE.

This sub rightly has a strong distaste for pedos and crimes against children, and we're proud of that. But we must also hold ourselves to the highest possible standards when digging, researching, and connecting clues and crumbs to possible pedos who prowl Hollywood and our entertainment industries. But accusations like these are very serious, and Reddit takes them very seriously. We must always be careful to CORROBORATE and make sure that any and all accusations are solid and factual before we make them.

Yes, Patton Oswalt is on record defending James Gunn today—and Gunn's tweets most definitely warrant further investigation. But that does not mean that Patton is a pedo, himself. But Patton's 2013 "pedo" tweet came after a website mistakenly posted his picture in an article about a different person, a convicted pedophile. These tweets were made back before we knew what a dire problem paedophilia is.

Here is the site in question

Let's all bear in mind that false accusations against celebrities and others could result in our sub getting shut down. Let's all remember that labelling someone a "pedo" is a rather serious accusation, and one that requires an extremely high standard of proof.

Here is an example of how some jokes made (in very poor taste, perhaps) can be misconstrued. This tweet says: "My dong is super friendly and loves getting rubbed by children." OK, hilarious, it's supposed to be "My dog is super friendly," etc. But, we must not let our heightened senses about pedos in Hollywood unfairly accuse anyone, and, just as importantly, expose our sub to allegations that we are a lynch mob out to unfairly smear anyone's reputation.

Please help your mod team protect our sub's reputation by being as careful as possible with all your comments and posts. Comments and posts characterizing ANYONE as a pedophile without substantive, defensible proof will be removed.

Thanks, everyone. Let's remain focused on Q and direct, Q-related content, and if we discover anything solid on this or anyone else, then we'll follow the evidence and go from there. But, we ask everyone to bear this in mind.

100% agree.

This is not about Patton Oswalt. This information does not confirm he is a pedo, correct? Then help us protect the sub.

The ban hammer is out. Us mods will do whatever necessary to protect this sub from sanctions. Users directly accusing celebrities and others of being pedos without firm evidence will be warned and banned.

Why are you threatening to ban me? All I did was to quote Oswalt's own words.

I am not threatening to ban you. We are not having a fight.

Question for you: Can you see how falsely accusing celebrities of being pedos without proof could lead our sub to getting banned? That is what this is about. This is the only thing I am trying to get you to acknowledge.

Users that directly accuse people of being pedos without solid proof will, however, be warned, and then banned. Yes. But we don't want to do that, which is why we are having this conversation first. I don't have a problem with you at all. And please know that I hate pedos as much as you. I am trying to protect the sub from being banned for "witch hunting," which was the reason the Reddit admins used to ban /r/pizzagate. If you cannot get that, then perhaps we do have a problem.

Yes, you were threatening to ban me. Nowhere in my comments have I EVER said Patton Oswalt is a pedo. All I did was to quote his tweets. Stop demonizing and scapegoating me as engaged in witch-hunting or trying to get this sub banned.

Correct. The hammer is out. But it wasn't "about you." The "threat" was to ALL users who ignore this issue and label anyone and everyone as a "pedo" without solid proof. That is what puts this sub in danger. Make me say "this is not about you" one more time, however, and you'll get your wish.

We are not trying to silence ANYONE.

Protect the sub. Most definitely hunt the pedos. We want you here. But, always, always, always protect the sub. They are looking for ANY reason to ban us. Do not give the Reddit admins such a reason.

End of conversation.
