Defederate lemmynsfw.com? (self.lemmyworld)

The admins on lemmynsfw.com have decided to allow "non-IRL loli", i.e. drawn porn involving children/teenagers. (Post: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/29633).

Irrelevant of the moral issues that this poses, such content is illegal in many countries (e.g the UK). Continuing to federate with lemmynsfw.com will put users at risk of significant legal repercussions.

Please would the admins consider defederating unless lemmynsfw change their policy.

UPDATE: The lemmynsfw admins posted an clarification here: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/29826. My original argument for defederating doesn't stand any more.

I wish there was a way to separate NSFW a little more - I don’t mind NSFW stories and adult language and so forth when scrolling but if I’m in public I don’t want to scroll All and see porn. I have no problem with porn, but to me there’s a time and place.

When I have NSFW disabled, I’m losing entire communities that I read the stories from because sometimes the content does 100% need the warning flag that it might not be for general audiences, but I don’t mind seeing an R rated movie in public while I won’t go see an NC-17 movie or an X rated movie in a theatre, personally, if that makes sense.

Out of curiosity, what communities are you subscribed to that entirely consist of posts that are marked nsfw that aren't porn? Not saying you aren't having that experience but I just can't think of any communities like that that I've come across. Certainly there will be some posts like that but losing entire communities by disabling nsfw in public?

There’s a community of old stories from Reddit lore is a NSFW community - not porn, but the stories can be kind of horrifying in other ways and it is definitely not for general audiences. Disabling NSFW makes the community go poof for me. [email protected] - I think there are some not-NSFW stories in it but the community itself is NSFW.
