They’re going to need a mega-wood chipper.

I’m sorry, did you say a MAGA wood chipper?
Delightful!

Roblox as a platform? OK, whatever, new audience I guess. Have at it
Wait
Oh no, I’ve misunderstood

Why don’t you just take a seat over there?

Could we please do away with this guy already!!?? I am so tired of seeing this man everywhere on social media as well as on memes!!! There’s got to be another way to express this besides using a man’s likeness. :-(

I don’t understand why you’d want that but ok I guess. Kinda feel like a catholic priest or a youth pastor wrote this

This man was relevant at one time because he was an investigative journalist, but these days, he seems to oversaturate the media whenever issues like this arise. I think he is passe, and I think it’s time for them to get a new mascot for fighting stuff like this! He is also used in a lot of memes across the internet, and it seems as if he is everywhere!!! :-(

Chris Hansen? The guy who got caught cheating on his wife Chris Hansen?

oh no, that’s… not diddling kids.
wish conservatives would actually care about kids being molested instead of cosplaying concern.

Chris Hansen married someone named Chris Hansen? What are the odds!

Reddit r/games thread about this is overwhelmingly shitting on Hansen and defending Roblox. Unsurprising from the home of r/jailbait I guess

Shitting on Hansen I can understand, but defending Roblox? It’s no grand conspiracy that it’s riddled with predators, it’s an actual fact, so that’s kinda disgusting.

What blows my mind is the child predation isn’t even half the problem with Roblox. Gambling with real cash, child labor, black market for digital content.
It’s an absolutely dumpster fire of problems, and yet balatro is the one the EU cracks down on.

What’s better than hiring some third world worker to do the work for 1/6 the price? Getting a child to do it for free!

Reddit has really plummeted in quality in recent years. And I mean the quality of its’ users, among other things.
tane69@lemmy.world 1 day ago
There’s a definite sweet spot for a subreddit/social media instance/online community whatever your verbiage. Once you get over around 10- 15k people quality of community goes slowly downhill

In defense of the generally indefensible masses of reddit, Hansen is hardly a figure above criticism. Fetishizing vigilante justice, embracing of the far-right, his emphasis on spectacle without regard for the community, that time where they more or less killed a guy… Child molesters are horrible (tho why we keep electing them, I’ll never know), but we don’t need to hail and laud someone as our champion just because they agree.
Hansen’s documentary has an opportunity to shed light on online grooming as a pervasive problem endemic to all online spaces but instead appears to further his usual moral panic about how there’s people lurking behind every bush, waiting to nab your children. His productions have never been better than any other schlock reality television, but with a veneer of legitimacy from his LARPing with law enforcement. Targeting a popular piece of pop culture, instead of an expose on say grooming rings on discord or the constant abuses of children from religious institutions or the ever-increasing access children have to unmoderated interaction seems to be as morally vapid as he ever has been.

Hansen is generally more of a grifter these days to be fair. And even back in the heyday of the show, it had a lot of issues both legal and just moral. I really feel weird about this kind of predator catching stuff being made as entertainment.
tane69@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Also I’d have to guess that a non insignificant number of Redditors would be targets of Hansen if he does this. Just going off of history and patterns

I got banned from r/gaming when I talked shit about pedos.
So yes. You are right.
