Being ironically horny on Reddit is a thing. Have you seen r/Ultrakill or stuff like that?

Are you surprised that anime fans are sexually attracted to their characters?

They sometimes do it with clearly underage characters too!

[–] SassyRamen 4 points 3 months ago

I take offense! I watch anime, but I'm not a fucking slug like this creeps.

I like to do a quick Goog and post the character's age whenever an anime pfp floats up into hot

The characters aren't real

She looks 14, but actually she's a thousand year old vampire dragon, and she's horny

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ok, but she IS pretty cute. Mainly because of the fluffy ears tho.

[–] Buttflapper 2 points 3 months ago

I agree with you. I think this is definitely one of their cutest characters. I really like the cat girl character design when it's harmless and light-hearted. People get so into this stuff and act like they are real

You'd think the mods would want to remove shit like that because what in the fuck, but I guess not?

[–] Buttflapper 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They banned me from the subreddit for low karma because I was responding to people telling them how gross those kind of comments were, and that of course decreases your karma. They also remove people's comments if they are not directly praising this kind of behavior. Any sort of controversial comments don't show up there for that exact reason.

Just a heads up, this happens all the time on Lemmy too. Everywhere where humans talk to each other, this happens. Different topic, same reaction. Its even happening in this very thread.

I personally am not a fan of "toxic positivity" or not allowing people to make critical observations without sending them to the Shadow Realm. It is harmful to legitimate discussion which could be quite interesting as long as the participants don't start name calling or doxxing or whatever. It seems like nowadays you either have to be 100% positive about literally everything and have no critical thought or you are ejected into space.

I think this is the natural conclusion to modern social media. Constantly being confronted by a billion different worldviews and farming people for engagement by showing them things they disagree with is just going to breed extreme echo chambers.

[–] RightHandOfIkaros 4 points 3 months ago

Yes, most definitely. It is most apparent in smaller groups and userbases, but can quickly become more widespread across larger userbases. That's not to say that all comments need to be critical, but the extreme tribalism that social platforms have been creating is not a good contribution to society moving forward.

This seems appropriate

There are 2 problems here.

  • The company drawing a (probably underaged) character nude with a towel.
  • The player base sexualizing a (probably underaged) character.
