I used reddit is fun but it's the same story. Literally 15 years using that website daily.

I don't think there is a question. There's nothing that points to the lgbt community being inherently more likely to commit sex crimes than heterosexuals or any other marginalized group. The right needed a new scapegoat after they had finally gutted roe vs wade and they had an easy target. The exact same tactic was used by the nazis when they focused in on Jewish people and since republican organizations and leaders keep quoting Hitler, collecting his belongings, or citing his influence, it's not hard to see where this came from.
That to me is a much bigger question that should be investigated. Why do people fall into extremist cults? Why are people so easily hypnotized by political leaders into fanatical states. How do people get collectively driven to genocide?
And then when we are done with that, we can open an investigation into why right wing politicians are orders of magnitude more likely to commit sex crimes? I believe I saw where Republican politicians are 6 times more likely to be arrested with a prostitute.
Its almost as if the actual sex predators formed a political group, draped themselves in the American flag holding a Bible, and picked a vulnerable community to direct the publics anger. That would certainly be convenient if you were a child sex predator. Hrmm.
Its nice to have a place where the admins and developers aren't trying to scheme and manipulate the community to get a big payout. Thanks for all that you guys do. Curating this community is no doubt selfless hard work but we need a place like this free from the influence or potential take over by bad actors and malignant narcissists.
So far this seems the closest to what I was getting through reddit. After these fools doubled down I'm eager to find a new place to get the same basic functionality. We will see if this is it or not.
Interesting and I'd say you're right. If you were to see a mass adoption of the fediverse (such as Twitter imploding and mastadon becoming the replacement) there would be an immediate attempt by the big tech players to gain control of it in some way. And this is exactly how they would try to do it.
