Thank you for this great post. Downvotes are likely by pedophiles and their apologists who frequent Voat, keeping tabs on their enemies and attempting to redirect the discussion.
I didn't downvoat you, because you're probably right to some extent yourself.
I haven't upvoated or downvoated @QuoteUnquoteArt's comments because nobody has archived the link, I'm waiting for that to happen personally before I proceed...
I've removed my downvoat from the submission for now.

Why do you need it archived before you can process the information? You down voted it without even understanding what it is.
"Three decades later, despite being a science fiction author and editor myself, I found myself increasingly at odds with the creepy little community known as SF fandom, which can best be described as the cantina crowd from Star Wars, only depressed, overweight, and sexually confused. At the same time, I was also becoming increasingly aware of a wrongness that emanated from that community like a faint, but unmistakably foul odor.
There were rumors about the real reason behind science fiction grandmaster Arthur C. Clarke’s bizarre relocation from southern California to Sri Lanka. There was the arrest of David Asimov, son of science fiction legend Isaac Asimov, for the possession of the largest stash of child pornography the police had ever seen. There were the public defenses offered by many science fiction authors on behalf of the SFWA member and convicted child molester Ed Kramer. There was the naming of NAMBLA enthusiast and homo-horrorporn author Samuel Delaney as SFWA’s 2013 Damon Knight Memorial Grand Master.
And then, of course, there was the historical Breendoggle, a fifty-year-old debate among science-fiction fandom concerning whether a child molester, Walter Breen, should have been permitted to attend the science-fiction convention known as Pacificon II or not. Believe it or not, the greater part of fandom at the time was outraged by the committee’s sensible decision to deny Breen permission to attend the 1964 convention; science-fiction fandom continued to cover for the notorious pedophile even after his death in 1993."

Actually, I for one did downvoat the submission because what is "voxday"?
I upvoated @Malignment because I agreed.

Probably because, Vox Day.

On this sub? With all the white supremacists here? I thought racists liked Vox Day.
