Aimee Challenor

    Open TLDR
    Reddit recently hired a new admin, Aimee Challenor, a transgender woman who had previously been a politician in the UK. Aimee is publicly tied to two different instances of supporting pedophiles.
    
    The first, her father raped and abused a child, in the house Aimee was living in. After being arrested and charged for the crime, but before being tried and sentenced, Aimee hired her father to be her campaign manager for elections with the Green party, and gave a false name to the party on the paperwork. When this was found out, she claimed ignorance of the extent of his crimes, and was removed from the party for safeguarding failures.
    
    The second, her husband is an open pedophile, who posts erotic fiction about children. Aimee had joined the Lib Dem party, and was removed when her husband tweeted that he "Fantasized about children having sex...sometimes with adults, sometimes kidnapped and forced in to bad situations". Both Aimee and her husband claim that the twitter account was hacked at that time.
    
    Aimee accused both political parties of being transphobic when she was removed.
    
    The fact that she is trans has meant that she is a prime target for harassment or as a demonstration by TERF/hard right groups of how "terrible" trans people can be. This lead to Reddit (per their claims) secretly enabling protections, that all posts on Reddit would be automatically scanned, and if it was detected to be doxxing Aimee, it would result in an automatic ban. After however long of running undetected by the userbase, the automatic doxxing protection proceeded to ban a moderator of r/UKPolitics who posted a news article, as Aimee Challenor was mentioned by name in the article. r/UKPolitics went private and shut down to figure out what was happening, and the admins reinstated the mod's account. r/UKPolitics then re-opened and posted a statement, that the shutdown was due to a ban, the ban was caused by an article including a line that referenced a specific person who now worked for Reddit, and that they were specifically requesting people not post the person's name or try to find out who the person was, as site admins would issue bans for that.
    
    Word of getting banned for saying "Aimee Challenor" spread quickly, and other OOTL posts show some of the results of that - many people repeating her name and associations and support for pedophiles, and a few (notably significantly less) removed comments. The admins put out a statement on r/ModSupport, stating that the post had "included personal information", that the ban was automated, not manual, and that the moderation rule had been too broad and was being fixed. People who can post on r/ModSupport (you must be a moderator, or your comments are automatically removed) immediately took issue with every part of the statement, as:
    
    -There had been a number of manual removals and direct edits of comments by reddit staff as the incident escalated (The second being something u/Spez was previously guilty of, and said he would lock down to prevent abuse of during the T_D issues)
    -The ban and post deletion on r/UKPolitics had been hours after the post, not immediate (which would be expected of an automated process)
    -Nobody believed that Reddit was automatically scanning the contents of every link to check for blacklisted words (Edit, striking this part out, looks like the text of the article was copied in to a comment which is what was scanned.)
    -The definition of "personal information" had just changed so much that posting the name "Joe Biden" could be considered doxxing
    -Reddit had not commented at all on the "open support for pedophiles" part
    
    Many moderators also raised complaints in the post about their personal issues with being doxxed, and that they had been reaching out to Reddit staff about consistent harassment and doxxing of their mod teams with no help given by Reddit, or wondering why these protections weren't enabled for them. One notable post states that inaction from Reddit staff with regards to doxxing resulted in a situation so bad that they were forced to contact the FBI in the USA and the RCMP in Canada to resolve the situation.
    
    This continued to rapidly escalate, and a group of mods started pushing for a blackout of their subreddits, something that has forced Reddit's hand with regards to responding to issues before. The list has been changing through the night, as different subreddits join in or leave the blackout, either protesting the censorship, protesting Reddit's perceived proxy-support for pedophiles, or (in many cases) both.

    I’m not going down without a fight
    
    ...”On both occasions she appointed her father as her election agent, legally responsible for running her campaign, even though he had been accused of or charged with the crimes, which were reported to police in late 2015. By the time of May’s elections he had a trial date. Candidates’ election campaign leaflets are legally required to include the name of their agent or promoter. Challenor’s leaflets for both campaigns, seen by The Sunday Times, did not show her father’s correct name, instead giving it as “Baloo Challenor”. Baloo, a character from Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book, was a nickname used by Challenor’s father in his work as an assistant Scout leader and volunteer with children’s gymnastics. He used his proper first name on the election nomination forms as Challenor’s agent.”

    A man who held a 10-year-old girl captive in his "torture den" attic where he electrocuted her while playing out his sadomasochistic fantasies has been jailed for 22 years.
    
    David Challenor, from Coventry, subjected the child to a campaign of abuse which included tying her from a beam, whipping her and giving her electric shocks.
    
    A court heard how the 50-year-old would dress up as a small girl in adult-sized baby dresses and nappies before carrying out the attacks at his home.
    
    Challenor had "various sexual fetishes and fantasies" and when the victim was at his home he took her to the attic where he asked her “to do things to him” including performing oral sex.
    
    After leaving, she was initially too frightened to tell anyone what he had done, but eventually did so.
    
    She confided in someone who reported the incidents to the police.
    
    When he was arrested, Challenor denied the offences and claimed the girl was "a fantasist."
    
    Police searched his property and found bondage gear including sex aids, gaffer tape, dummies, a stun gun and ropes hanging from the beam in his dungeon-style attic.
    
    He even took photographs of the abuse carried out on the child which included attaching clips to give her electric shocks and putting pegs on her body.
    
    Challenor, who is married, accused the girl of lying but officers found the attic just as she had described.
    
    Despite the evidence he pleaded not guilty to charges including false imprisonment, rape, gross indecency, assault by penetration, indecent assault and assault causing bodily harm.
    
    Challenor also denied taking indecent images, making indecent images of children by downloading them, and possessing prohibited images.
    
    But after nine hours at the end of an 11-day trial, the jury at Warwick Crown Court unanimously found him guilty of all but one of the charges of taking indecent images.
    
    Prosecutor Andrew Wallace told jurors: “The defendant will call her a fantasist and a liar about the allegations, but she made them before the police went to the defendant’s house and made a search.”
    
    During the trial, Mr Wallace asked: “So what are the chances that the police on a later date find whips and various things at his house?
    
    “These are not things that are routinely in the knowledge of a child - so when the police go to the address and find items there which support that, that will help you decided ‘is she the liar or is Mr Challenor?'
    
    “Just the kind of things she talked about being used on her are there. She hasn’t invented them, they are there.”
    
    A memory card discovered in a digital camera contained indecent images, including some of the girl, which Challenor denied being responsible for taking.
    
    On another device were indecent images of children which had been downloaded from the internet.
    
    Challenor described in court the supposedly legitimate uses of each of the items found in the attic, as did his wife - but their accounts of what they were for did not always match.
    
    After the jury returned its verdicts, Mr Wallace read out an impact statement in which Challenor’s victim said she had been left traumatised by her ordeal.
    
    Challenor, who the court heard has medical issues, has been the full-time carer for his wife, who attended court in a wheelchair and was now unlikely to be able to remain in their home.
    
    He was jailed for 19 years for the offences against the girl, with a consecutive three-year term for the images, and was ordered to register as a sex offender for life.
