  • When I volunteered as a new mod starting last year, I saw some horrific csam posts that I can’t forget, I just hope those who reported them have recieved some mental health support.

    To cope, I hike to my local park, take edibles, try to do anything to keep me distracted but it’s hard to forget. Even as I sit here freezing in my chair the ticking of my clock is a deafening reminder of the garbage I’ve seen. It doesn’t help in that I’m an empath(I receive the pain of others) either so I just think about why these things happen and try to promote systems that prevent past mistakes from reoccurring.

    A couple systems I’m aiming to improve is public education and mental health support. When people know how to better protect themselves and those most trustworthy nearest to them, the higher likelihood that atrocities like these can be prevented and stopped. That’s the hope anyways. No guarantee it’ll work.

    just a heads up, another way of potentially thinking about this is anguishing the murder of a murderer.

    Murder is indeed wrong.
    Simultaneously trying to defend a murderer is often seen as an unpopular decision especially if their crimes are made in public hence the current situation.

    So you’re correct in one point but on the wrong side of current public opinion.
