there was an update from the admins of lemmy.nsfw where language barriers got in the way and the wrong impression was made, which was quickly addressed by the instance’s other admin as well as edited by its’ original author.
this got people in this instance concerned until the edit was made, however in two threads about it on kbin social the anime PFPs came out to play and the head admin of dataterm was obligated to comment as well
the funniest part is, it really demonstrates the truth of stereotypes about people with anime loli PFPs. at least a couple of the commenters in those threads are going to end up on watchlists.
It’s reasonable not to ban ambiguous stuff where the character looks like they could maybe be 17 or 19. You’re not protecting anybody by banning a drawing with no real age.
However calling it “irl loli” is absolutely disgusting and that combined with the casual attitude in the post is also disgusting
“irl loli” ??? Is that some way of downplaying CP? It’s fucking CP?!?! Holyshit. I can’t believe they switched the term to try and not sound so bad.
EDIT: Just read the post and they say IRL kids. Still, the terminology feels like it stems from replacing drawings with photos, like it’s just another medium of expression, not an act of wicked abuse to the subject.
