It's mostly surprising how many grown adult men go into a blind rage when confronted with a picture of a cartoon woman. In a lobsters thread about Anubis, a community member of 12 years got themselves permanently banned because they were frothing at the mouth with accusations of pedophilia against the developer and refused to apologise when given an opportunity by moderators. Telling on themselves, perhaps? It's funny, in a bizarre way, that this is a hill people will die on.

- simoncion 4mo ago> ...they were frothing at the mouth with accusations of pedophilia against the developer... I think I remember that thread. IIRC, it went something very, very roughly like this: Future banned user: It weirds me out a bit how young the mascot looks. I've never been comfortable with cutesy, underage-looking mascots. The dogpile: How dare you insinuate that the dev a pedophile? Don't you know how anti-trans that dogwhistle is? and the conversation degraded from there. I'll also note that you chipped in with > It's mostly surprising how many grown adult men go into a blind rage when confronted with a picture of a cartoon woman. when -AFAICT- noone in this subthread expressed anything more heated than "dislike of kawaii". But perhaps you were speaking more generally, and weren't inspired by any conversation that happened in this subthread.
