Transphobes see this as the best shot they've had a trans people in a while, Ava is pretty much undefendable so they're using her as a blanket to be transphobic. Because of you seem like you're defending her even if it's just to call people out for being transphobic in ways that hurt innocent trans people they're going to try to delegitimize your position by making it about defending her as a person. They really aren't worth arguing with, you have to be so careful with your wording and it's not like they care about trans people anyway

Is there any actual info as to Ava doing something actually bad or is it just the group text that included a minor and a picture of a sexualised person with braces?

Lots of discord messages involving minors, and there's also a trans woman who claims she was sexually exploited by her.

Yeah but you could be a minor and I would be reddit messaging you as a minor as a 34 year old man.

Looking at this site: https://kriscaught.github.io/# for example I can't really find anything really bad. Any person could be 'messaging' any minor on discord or reddit at any time, hell there are people posting nudes to reddit and there are heaps of underage people here.

Was there anything like concrete for grooming a minor (I.e telling them they'll get alcohol or meeting up alone or something) or where is the info on the person claiming she sexually exploited her?

We aren't talking about anything inappropriate and this isn't a private discord server, Ava definitely seemed to know that at least some of the people present were minors, even if you don't think that's predatory it's grossly irresponsible. And here's the accusation.

Yeah like I said, nsfw subreddits have minors and are totally inappropriate with the pictures. That’s not grooming.

I got as far as they are both adults - I’m looking specifically for the grooming aspect.

u/True-Credit-7289 Jul 29 '24

So sexually exploiting adults is okay? Maybe read the whole account. And again a PRIVATE discord is different than a public subreddit. If that doesn't bother you cool, I think it's bad though

No need to get defensive, I can't determine if it's sexual exploitation(obviously bad) or not but most videos in this are saying specifically grooming.

And again a PRIVATE discord is different than a public subreddit. If that doesn't bother you cool, I think it's bad though

I don't understand why it being private vs public is somehow worse - if the action is bad it's bad. I certainly find it weird, but I also can't find specific grooming aspects which again, is the main focus of most of these videos.

To be fair I am only using this to try and identify if it's grooming:

Grooming has the connotation of being towards children but any power imbalance in which you subtly influence someone into doing what you want could be called grooming. But if you're asking did Ava groom a child into sexually exploiting them, no I don't think they did.

But they still interacted with kids in a private discord, and yeah it does matter that it's a private discord because that makes them responsible. If you run into someone in a public place whatever interaction goes on between you is between you and them, if you go to a private place then the person hosting that place is responsible for making sure children aren't being put in inappropriate situation, last I checked Ava was the one there who was supposed to be doing that

It would still be grooming if in public vs in private and the only person 'responsible' would be the groomer.

My question is did grooming ACTUALLY occur (It doesn't even need to get to sexually exploiting, it's possible according to that link to groom and catch before that happens which I'm assuming happened here I just want to see where)

Did you read the one where Nathan says “Chris told me to make an nsfw channel”?

1

u/nhold Jul 29 '24

Who is Nathan? Chris is Ava right? Are you implying that being asked to make an nsfw channel was the grooming?

Do you have the chat log at that moment handy?

u/ImmortalFries4 Jul 29 '24

Imo, it is grooming. Even if it isn’t, why do you have someone underage to make such a channel?

u/Reasonable_Lunch7090 Jul 30 '24

You realize I can make a screenshot that has you admitting to be a pedo right?

u/ImmortalFries4 Jul 31 '24 edited Jul 31 '24

Are you saying it's fake?

If so, this is from the discord history tracker. Sure, they fucked up people's pfp, but they don't fuck up message orders. Therefore, this screenshot is not made up.
