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.

Even calling it "loli" is problematic and if anything the creepier thing, but IMO

(A) in the genchat we talked about the age of those two posters (my comment on the other hand was "sure kill me" but less explicit as it's the grad)

(B) the line drawn is iffy with age (not an Evangelion fan so didn't know she's 14) but even then at some point, considering the artstyle and that we're literally gunning for "undertones" at this point I think we need to touch grass.

(C) I agree the grad is really not the place for this sorts of things though

Hm, it's not problematic calling it Loli and definitely not creepy. Lolicon isn't just porn, but attraction towards children in general, is it not?

There's no gunning for undertones. If you replace the cartoon image with an actual photograph of a child it should be obvious.

The age of the commenters is irrelevant.

a) Their age is unverified

b) Readers don't know their age

c) The OC was likely created by an adult

I don't know if the character depicted is said to be 14, I was referencing u/commiespammer's comment

Yes and no, "loli" is the.. genre if you will. The terminally online/creepy/anime way of calling it. Calling people or kids it in general is just plain wrong honestly IMO. The "attraction towards children" is pedophilia

There’s no gunning for undertones. If you replace the cartoon image with an actual photograph of a child it should be obvious.

Once again, cartoon. Not to say that makes "everything ok" but at some point you need to touch grass

The age of the commenters is irrelevant.

As for this... seriously? They were cringe but this is equally cringe. Basically at some point... you get my gist

c) The OC was likely created by an adult

I don't see how this has anything to do with the subject matter?

At what point do you need to touch grass and at what point does it make "everything ok"?
