Should loli posting be allowed? (lemmygrad.ml)

Basically as title, I wanted to hear if posts such as below are acceptable, since as it stands, it doesn't break any of Lemmygrads rules. Frankly, the post is very weird to me, and the comments are bizarre. People talking about how they want to "dominated" by a 14 year old is imo not okay, especially not when it's on a post of a drawing of a child with clear undertones. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the post since I'm not an evangelion fan, but I thought it was noteworthy enough to bring up here.

EDIT: The post has been removed, so I guess that's a no?

Loli is shorthand for Lolita, which specifically implies sexual abuse of children and usually(?) refers to cartoons. Sexualizing a cartoon 14 year old is definitely that.

Sexualizing children definitely shouldn't be allowed, but I was under the impression this was supposed to make fun of evangelion fans. I don't think very many people are attracted to the characters in seriousness, that would be creepy. Misato fans though are a different story, but she's an adult so it doesn't count.

Didn't NGE have a feature-length porn sequel that was probably animated by the same studio? Having met a few IRL I'm not going to stick my neck out for weebs that make memes of sexually suggestive anime characters.

Are you referring to Human Salvation Project? I don't think it was officially related to Gainax in any way and somebody said the frames were traced from the original. Besides, it can't be considered feature-length since afaik it's like 10 minutes long. The fanbase is pretty weird, admittedly, but in my opinion the characters themselves aren't sexualized very much in the actual show. Assuming you haven't watched it the actual show is very dark in a freudian way (Anno literally had depression as he was making NGE and it was his way of coping), and the goofiness of everything related to it is as much a reaction to the contents itself than anything.

Again I do agree that this kind of post probably should be discouraged, but it's not necessarily a sign of perversion festering in lemmygrad either.
