  • I mean, being a weeb is not synonymous with loli stuff, especially nowadays where anime and manga have become so mainstream.

    But I don’t believe even for a second the narrative of “now that the good guys are off, reddit has decayed to the point anime fans are clamouring for loli” they already were, since the beginning, it is a constant and unavoidable “issue” (in the sense of controversial) in anime communities, always was and probably always will be.

    Heck I remember one of the main mods of r/animemes posting loli on other subs, so it isn’t like the people that directed the subs had much problem with it, it was just part of the rules they had to enforce due to multiple reasons (people not wanting to see that, it being a meme community, reddit rules over all, etc)


  • One of his main talking points it’s how we are all living on the matrix and you have to deprogram yourself, of course he sells courses on how to do exactly that!

    It is one of those things when scam artists poke at general sentiment but actually their message has 0 substance, similar to when alt righters say that cultural marxists have taken over. It means nothing but they love to play the underdog to some nefarious force, pretending to resist which is the way they use to justify why their ideas are so frowned upon on today’s society.


  • Jokes aside, I quickly scrolled the anime subs I used to frequent (by hot and then top daily and top weekly) and I didn’t really see noticeable change, maybe I missed a big discussion that happened during protests since I stopped using reddit since then, but I don’t really see what you described.

    And before the protests there was already the occasional pro loli post, of course it wasn’t a flood that’s why I went to check.

    Maybe it’s something present on smaller subs?

    I mean, “karma” here is meaningless (not that on reddit it meant much) since your account doesnt show how much upvotes youve gotten making it virtually meaningless aside of ascending posts to top and hot.

    I do enjoy seeing high numbers on other people’s posts right now since it somewhat reflects how many users are interacting in some form in Lemmy
