Tldr lemmy mods apologising for fash on lemmy and the mods/admins/users defending the bigot as they recruit others to their dogshit instance.
Oh also one user calling lgbtq+ user a pedophile pushing that same vile rhetoric used by fascists to dehumanised lgbtq+ people and they didn’t get banned immediately. So criticalresist gets banned for telling users to fuck off but using dehumanising homophobia to bully a Comrade is a-ok by lemmy mod standards.
Leftist social media? What a laugh. They stand for nothing and fall for everything.
Update: the wolfballs admin seems to have fled while deleting their comments and the abjectly homophobic comment by another user was removed but further comments continuing the bs idea that a user here is a groomer because she is part of the lgbtq+ community persist further legitimising that assumption that the two (lgbtq+ and noncing) are somehow linked.
Do better lemmy.
I don’t think a lot of people in the wider world who aren’t queer or allies realise that linking peadophilia and lgbt was a major piece of propaganda used to demonise and refuse us rights by homophobes and that it had such a profound affect on reactionaries that I still hear the odd homophobe say it today and it boils my blood. To see it even remotely tolerated on lemmy made me seethe. Like people who have queer friends asking if we will ever see peadophilia normalised like lgbt and its like wtf why are you associating someones sexuality and child exploitation?! Lgbt people can still be pedophiles the same as straights. They are completely different and this subconscious linking of the two is one of the most damaging hit pieces homophobes ever pulled off.
Erghhh the loli debate is always brain melting. I categorised it as Japan might have a lower age of consent but that doesn’t justify peadophilia and i doubt it flies over there too, if your drawing someone to be intentionally pre-puberty then you are attaching that sexualisation to a childs body. The aspect of loli that attracts the users is the prebubescent bodies and that is vile.
I did a thing, getting downvoted already 👍
Really cool of the lemmy mods to blab on about “da rules,” but look the other way when they see homophobia and transphobia, real fucking classy
But god protect you when you say “fuck off” to some fash apologist troll, then the ban is immediate
Well you can’t say they aren’t libs then 🤣
Ffs and the one comment is some beehaw shill screams into pillow
I’ve read Japanese people who work with Japanese children who survive sexual abuse and they will tell you that “lolicon material” is used to groom the victims.
It’s not mere coincidence that insects caught with CP also own “lolicon material”.
That’s so gross but somehow doesn’t surprise me.
Isn’t the age of consent in Japan de facto 18, since every prefecture has set it higher than national law?
Well there ya go, it makes their position even less defensible!
