I just can’t, and sadly it’s worst in Linux community. Like dude’s face hair makes him look 45, but no, he does a desktop with a cringy looking 15 old anime girl. (That, on top of hiz annoyingly high pitched voice but whatever) I just stop watching the video on the spot, it’s beyond dumb.
The stupid NSFW tag on Lemmy? I turned it ON to occasionally see boobs, not some drawn pictures of underage kiddo, this pisses me off so much, JUST FCKING STAHP with this shit.
I have an impression suddenly, in a span of 2 years everyone started to jerk off on that bullshit and are proud to show it

“She identifies as a 40yo male. Check & mate, FBI agent!”
If anime girls are just now becoming cringey in this community, I may need to reconsider going back to Reddit. Hasn’t the anime girl thing always been cringey? Or is Lemmy just more full of teenagers thinking this is cool?
That’s the whole reason I came to the comments lol… Wtf do you mean, “current” trend?
Some kid just discovered anime and is horrified. This shit has been happening for longer than you were alive, OP
Press X to doubt i am well in my 30ties
Sure you are
¯_(ツ)_/¯
ITT: Horny incel nerds that can not fathom that despite loli anime has been around forever and despite there are no victims of child abuse in making the imagery etc etc - for normal nerds it is gross and cringe that adults are swooning over sexualized cartoon teenagers.
It’s becoming normalized in various Linux and FOSS stuff too. Like the Android distro I tried out recently that looked clean and business and and then the menu backgrounds had anime tweens with balloon tiddies. WTF is this tacky bullshit? What is going on? Why do all these fellow nerds think this is normal or cool or edgy or whatever?
Exactly how i feel!
Pedophiles exist, have existed through human history, and will continue to exist for as long as humans in meaningful numbers exist.
You can hope and wish and pray that every pedophile comes to recognize their trait in themselves and immediately, voluntarily walks themselves into the sea, but they never will.
So you are left with A) a victimless outlet for their antisocial kink in the form of drawn imagery, or B) hoping that those pedophiles all manage to keep their sexual proclivities in check from puberty to grave with absolutely no outlet, even alone in a room with a cartoon drawing.
In the former, less actual children get hurt, in the latter you get to make non-practicing pedophiles who didn’t choose to be pedophiles lives more difficult and tempt them further to act on their shameful sexuality irl for lack of victimless options.
So the question in the world as it is is, which is more important to you? Preventing acts of pedophilia with children, or taking active measures to hurt the people you hate for being something they probably never wanted or chose to be, by depriving them an artificial outlet for their sexual proclivities?
Oh, now I am being guil-tripped into making pedophilia worse 😃 another day on internet
Didn’t mean to guilt you or anyone, friend.
I just enjoy thinking out the logical conclusions of courses of action. You didn’t even call for banning anything, just that you dislike something, so there’s nothing to feel guilty about.
Yup, nowhere I used word “illegal” or “banned”. I am just affirming it’s cringe, and kinda says something about the person
This is definitely not an unpopular opinion. Except on lemmy maybe… there’s some weird ass shit on the NSFW instance. Like I try not to kink shame folks but hot damn is it weird sometimes. I got someone banned for reporting their degrading women/get back in the kitchen rape themed shit I stumbled on. People get way too comfy expressing their technically not illegal fetishes.
It doesn’t take long to find a video on YT where a dude comparing desktop environments has an anime loli as wallpaper lol definitely not only Lemmy
Well done, FBI agent. The incels are coming out of the goddamn woodwork up in here.
😎 Just work, nothing personal
