Debate @Lidl Drip on if watermelon drawing is loli - CallmeCicada made a watamelon

If she can explain how posting that abomination which doesn't even resemble a human makes someone seem like a pedophile then hear her out, but it's probably just the "any vaguely female anime character is pedophilia" thing.
Even though pulling the "pedo" card is an overly exaggerated way of phrasing the argument, it's hard to deny that modern anime is inherently steeped in degenerate cultural norms which show themselves in the way characters are depicted.

Imagine if a furry user came in here posting edits of their furry mascot and whenever someone called them out for spreading furfaggotry they responded with "what it's just a dog lol". That's how people without terminal anime brain are seeing this. The humour of it does offset the degen aspect to a degree, but it's still a transgression (albeit a very minor one not worth getting worked up over).
 
If the watamelon is lolicon than I must apoligize to @Glowie for posting baby fur fag shit on his profile. I swear I thought it was just a cute baby beaver but it hits the hallmarks for cub porn stuff.
>Baby animal
>pacifier in mouth
>animal is without clothing

i foster kittens, i have to go to jail now for being a pedozoo :(

I'll grant you the bit about terminal weebery, but I think you're also failing to consider that not everyone is a cynic who's trained themselves to see degeneracy behind every blade of grass.
Sometimes a cigar isn't a stand-in for male genitalia, it's just a cigar.

There is no accurate analogy available for what were seeing in this thread.
Furfags post furfagotry.
Weebs post their weebery.
What were posting here is some weird amalgamation made out of multiple pictures being used to piss schizo retards off.
Animal, plant, anime girl.
The closest situation i can think of that only mildly resembles that, would be finding birds that can replicate human speech perfectly in the middle of the jungle, at night, when youre all alone.
 
MASSA! IS COMIN!

hiiiiiiide the watamelon...


How the fuck are we already at 31 whole fucking pages of this shit? Lmao 31 whole mass debate pages of questioning whether this fucking autistic watermelon pokemon meme image with what is supposedly some anime person streamer's avatar's face on it from a few years back is a secret pedo thing or not interspersed with melon or nigger shitposts. I wish I had more to add to either side of the stupid fucking debate but the entire tangent about the pacifier variant and if pacifiers in memes a pedo exclusive thing or not is the kind of shit that'd have me in any other instance getting stressed about how fucking stupid and fake people are getting these days again. This thread though is just pure shitposting levels of debate it seems so it's like those escalations into schizo territory people do for comedic effect.
 
It's a forced Vtuber meme, though, so we all know what the real deal with that is.
Honestly did people learn nothing from CNN flipping shit over "its ok to be white" signs????
Flipping out INCREASES the meme. And this has been 30 pages of people getting butt-hurt over the meme.

That is what the word originally meant.
Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, I was asking if you view something as a loli if it has JUST big eyes, since you say apparent physical maturity / stated age together isn't good enough??. I mean you focus so much on the eyes, far more than if a picture IS sexual. And I'm pretty fucking sure loli didn't originally mean "big eyed girl".

The presence of children doesn't make a show pedophilic. If anime didn't want to be pedo bait, they would change up the character styles.
It would help if this was better fucking defined. Like this is all vague af "her eyes are too big" which somehow makes SOME pedophilic, and some not, and if this style is put on CLEARLY fully grown women its...presumably also pedophilic? Like ill even give you the benefit of the doubt that PERHAPS some animators know exactly what they are doing making young girls drawn in a specific way to "appeal" and perhaps you could blame individual animators, but industry wide I'd kinda just chalk it up to weebery, its so damn prolific I bet its used to some degree without conscious knowledge of what you are talking about, just something so widely adapted and used that its second nature? But for consumers especially, This feels fucking whack to worry about, like what, a clean anime 10 hours in has a woman with eyes too big, so now you have to abandon it or be a pedo?
Like I get what you are on (I THINK???) with eyes being bigger being childlike, but also

Both charecters are female. One IS definitively underage. Who has the bigger eyes? Oh shit its the of age woman. Does this mean people who find her hot are pedophiles??? she DOES have big eyes.

This is why this thinking is like, halfway in higher level thinking that MAYBE has some interesting things being noticed, but the other half is PURE fucking autism on tier with monty python "if the witch weights more than a duck, shes made of wood" type thinking. It reminds me of someone squarely around like 90IQ just BARELY understanding a concept on a basic level but fucking it up HORRIBLY because their mind can understand a concept they can barely grasp, but NONE of the nuances of it.
Of course making stuff look like they have bigger eyes doesn't necessarily make it loli porn. This is a deliberately stupid, extreme interpretation
:thinking:
I would shut it down altogether :)
I'm not a hater of anime that much to want to eliminate it but I think this is at least tolerable because its more honest. "I hate weebs, fuck anime" comes off a lot less stupid than "big eyes mean you want to molest children".

Anyway since this has devolved into memes I'm posting the best watermelon meme.

To be clear, I don't believe that any of the watermelon posters are getting anything from it other than harmless fun; my gripe is moreso with anime as a medium, but that's probably a discussion for a thread without "loli" in the title.

You're right I do have a hair trigger when it comes to this stuff.

It just feels very similar to the old argument I heard about 20 years ago. If anime is the gateway to pedophilia, then FPS is the gateway to mass killers. So considering most men are online these days and playing videogames, 80% of them should be raping children in the shopping mall food court while firing AK-47's into the crowds right at this very moment.
I think Mass killers are drawn to FPS. I think pedophiles are drawn to anime, especially lolicon. But I don't believe it causes it. It's like me spending all my time going after PUBG players as future columbine shooters.
 
Look I don't want to sound MATI or derail the shit out of the thread but have you ever thought that maybe the people who engage with the medium are painfully aware of its failings and problems, how the past few decades have escalated said problems to a near untenable degree and how the medium went to shite?
A degree of shite where it precludes them from enjoying what little is left yet untainted, unenshittened and not filled with quick-buck coomer appeal (yes it was always a thing, yet not to this extent). That just maybe having a bunch of what amounts to tourists looking from the outside in --who will jump at any chance and any topic even tangentially related to the medium to run their mouths as if they are the first person to ever notice these problems is, quite frankly, somewhat grating?

Maybe I should jump into a topic of whatever you enjoy to point out any problems the community around said thing has, shitting up any and all discussions around it. Yet I don't, because I'm aware that you would rightfully call me a maladapted shit flinging ape for it.

I've heard some refutation to this argument that "killing is a natural destructive impulse and gooning to anime is something something". I can't remember it very well other than thinking it was some advanced 4D chess cope to try and dismiss the obvious parallel with retarded pseudopsychology.
