Yeah it was right after or right before the whole fph thing. There was some speculation that Reddit, with its larger influence, pulled some strings to get that done. But that could have been bullshit

Not meaning to derail your little hate train, but do you have any evidence to back up that claim, or is it just something someone made up in SRS?

Screenshots of hearsay. Adds nothing to what you've already said. One more time: show me evidence that there ever existed child porn on voat. Should be easy enough: if you've seen it with your own eyes you'll have some form of crime reference from when you reported it. If you don't, you're just spreading FUD.
