    Hur durr… You have different interests… Therefore degenerate…

    Do you even realize how incredibly stupid the whole concept of tribalism is?

      My understanding of degeneracy is well defined.

      degenerate behavior, especially behavior considered sexually deviant

      Fortunately I do not have any interest on little kids so yes it is deviating from my/societal interest therefore a degen.

        Not sure why you’re getting downvoted for correctly using the term and calling out the degenerates who self-insert as little girls everywhere.

          Maybe because i worded it a bit like im attacking linux hobbyists. I am one myself. And maybe I also fit in a different definition of the term degen. But yeah I don’t agree with the one dude that thinks cosplaying little girls is a hobby lol.

          In a sense we all spend so much time virtually, sometimes it feels dystopian to me. Not saying it’s wrong but it’s fascinating for sure.

        That’s where you’re wrong kiddo. The downvotes are because you are jumping to conclusion about lolis and other sexualization.

        The fascination with child personas for most anime fans are just that. It’s cute. The same ways dogs are cute, and cats are cute. I really doubt they have a fetish on children, although there are some that do. I really don’t think it’s right to mash them all together.

          Idk where you are from. But someone making it their hobby to watch cute little girls is considered quite creepy in my place.

          Ik that’s also a reason and i stand by my views which also happens to be the views of the general society.
