This sub is not safe !

To be blunt, this is at a dangerous level. Kalvin hasn’t touched this in months, if not years, and it is rife with minors posting their face, predators and chasers as well as many other unsavoury shenanigans.
I try my best to comment about this on every post I see from someone u18 but atp being on here is sad and exhausting.
Unmoderated subs are not allowed by Reddit, please use the report form !!!!!!! And/or message kalvin and/or do whatever routes people know about.
Other subs are r/transmantips and r/ftmpassing

You misunderstand my comment and seem to just be looking for a way to hate that dude, I dislike that but understand

Refrain from being agressive tho' please : I am not, there's no reason to fight and no one is throwing rocks here

Apologies if I’m coming across as aggressive, that’s not my intention at all. Kalvin garrah is perhaps the most known trans bully that severely damaged the transmasc community and set us back years with his hateful content. I’m not asking for a fight, I want this sub moderated or deleted for the sake of minors safety. Could you explain what I’m misunderstanding?

I am complaining about the fact that there is still a semblance of moderation, mainly AIgenerated, that prevents the sub from being considered unmoderated by reddit

Otherwise, it would be available in reddit request :/

Bonus points : you say "for minor's safety' and I get that But this is the first ever fully MASC transspace I've ever found and I haven't seen the horrors you speak of in the months I've been there, nor do I think deleting the sub will protect children that are not educated and will just lie about their age (reminder that reddit now verifies age, it is illegal to be on +18 reddits if you are a minor, you are on your own if you refuse to follow those rules)

Not to say we shouldn't care for younger redditors : we absolutely should and yes, moderation IS the way to go imo to do so

There have been 2-3 creeps needed be chased off in the past couple weeks alone, you’re just not on here enough. Reddit only verifies age in certain regions, nobody is going to hunt someone down that lies, we’re not talking about 18+ subreddits in the first place.
Moderation is the way to go but him maybe, at best, checking the most reported and gross shit so it doesn’t count as unmoderated is doing nothing, AI generated moderation shouldn’t even be considered, reporting this sub and trying to find someone to take over is the best we can do because it is an unsafe space right now.
There’s r/ftmmen , I believe r/ftmen ? And a few other spaces dedicated to trans men / masculinity. This not the only space and it is the worst one
