Editing Great Penez Pedo Expose (section)

==Aftermath==

After the events of the expose the number of pedophiles and groomers definitely decreased, though as of now the amount of groomers in the community is definitely going back up, some would say that it is once more time for an expose like this.
This expose would leave both [[Whenthe]] and [[Dogelore]] in a huge crisis, with Dogelore having a huge chunk of its moderation team being exposed as pedophiles (including the owner resigning), and with Whenthe's owner resigning after the fiasco. 


The expose itself was controversial, due to Penez having a small bout of retardation in that he would take ANY submission and/ or claims about pedophilia seriously (no matter how obviously false it was), and 

as a result "expose" people who weren't even pedophiles or were just attention-seekers wanting a piece of the action. As a result, many people started stabbing their peers in the back, and planting false evidence/ 

claims of pedophilia and sexual degeneracy on them just for the smallest smidge of fame. Independent fact-checkers and peer-reviewed papers and journals have compared this to the Salem Witch Trials, McCarthyism, and the Red Chinese Cultural Revolution due to the fact that so many friendships and connections were ruined (and still are to this day) in an attempt for attention. 


Nonetheless, the Great Penez Expose was considered an overall success by aforementioned independent fact-checkers and peer-reviewed papers and journos, as many pedophiles were forced from their positions of power, and many more fled due to fear of being exposed. In fact, some scientists have claimed that the total number of child grooming incidents has gone down drastically ever since. While the exact number is unknown, it is estimated that hundreds, perhaps thousands of innocent children were saved from grooming due to the events of this day.
