I found that the members of r/luckystar were saying very sexual things about characters that, while 18, had very child like designs. And even if, they were saying shit like, “Cunny!” and, “Correction!” so, yeah.

I constantly reported all posts and comments like that I came across and eventually made a post asking why they were saying things like that. I wasn’t hostile, and was in fact, rather calm about the situation. Meanwhile, they were all extremely rude and hostile towards my post, calling me names and such, and about 20 minutes later, my account was shadowbanned.

So, not only did Reddit moderation side with the pedos, they didn’t even have the decency to tell me what I did wrong. Assuming how it all happened so suddenly, I’m just gonna assume the pedos all mass-reported my account for God knows what. Any and all appeals I’ve mad since then received no response.

I still stuck around for a few months after that, [that whole deal happened back in May of 2025.] but the extreme leftist political dooming invading every corner of the website I used made it absolutely miserable to use.

Tonight, I finally put my foot down and said, “I quit!” I discovered this website and made an account here. I guess you can use this post to welcome me to the Fediverse.

    I mean, this place is quite a bit further left than Reddit. A lot of leftist stuff on Reddit started getting banned after Elon got his fee-fees hurt over people mocking DOGE.

    And, it’s kinda weird that the last straw was the anti-fascism rather than the creeps.

    Um I found a bunch of child molesters, reported them but got banned

    But like I stuck around for months after and only left coz the socialist were telling me that the fascists I believe in are destroying the country, the rule of law and its institutions

    /s

    So the child fucking molesters weren’t enough to make you leave but leftist were.

    constant reporting can apparently result in a ban, because “you reported too much” or whatever reason. reddit allows alot more bots to astroturf the site than usual. reddits far-left community is quite small compared to here. its more or lest center right beliefs.

    reporting seems to be a extremely futile exercise on reddit, because only gets you banned in the end anyways.

      One of the earliest recorded uses of the term “cunny” appears in an October 25th, 1668, diary entry by Samuel Pepys in which he describes being caught having an affair, writing, “Endeed I was with my main [hand] in her cunny. I was at a wonderful loss upon it.”[1] The term likely evolved as a pun on the word “coney,” (pronounced phonetically as “cunny”) an old term for a rabbit.[2]

      You’d be correct. When freaks like that see minor characters, they start saying shit like, “UOHUH CUNNY 😭💢” and, “BRAT NEEDS CORRECTION! 😭💢”.

      Now, to explain, “Cunny”, [sometimes referred to as Cute and Funny to trick the censors and other people.] is a slang term they made for a minor female character’s private parts. As for “Correction”, they mean a bratty little girl needing, “correction.” and by that, they mean… well, yeah.

      So even IF they were attracted to their personalities, [which I’d understand, after all they are 18 and fictional characters.] They’re basically self-reporting doing shit like that.

      [Typing all that shit out is probably gonna get my account banned, but I just want to inform you.]

            So this week Slovakia’s national security advisor resigned and so did Lord Mandelson from the Labour Party in the UK. Both happened shortly after the latest file release because they are indeed very much in the files.

            Also as a European we are so very much financing Israel’s genocide. Not sure what sources you are using that say we aren’t. Type in any EU country in any search engine of your choice. Add in “money Israel” or “weapons Israel”. Sure plenty of countries are also condemning Israel’s actions while also simultaneously paying for those actions.

                Yep and that sucks. A lot of people have been working very long to fill the top ranks in the US exclusively with people who are at the very least on board with this kind of behaviour or willing to go along with just about anything blindly, most of which were replaced very recently.

                In Europe we seemingly still have enough people left that we’re not compromised. At least enough that they don’t dare to give people a free-pass publicly yet. We’ll see if anyone actually gets punished though or if it’s just for show.

                Sure there were Americans involved, but it was arguably a worldwide operation. Plenty of ties to the UK, EU, Russia, Israel and various middle eastern countries. I’m happy to talk crap about the US (amongst other countries) but I prefer to stick to facts when doing so.

                  True, but not the people that actually rule the UK or EU, only for USA does this spread right to the very top of those that actually rule. And it also spreads way more widely among the top in USA.

    while 18, had very child like designs.

    Just because you don’t like it, doesn’t make it wrong. And it is absolutely legal if they are 18+, at least where I live it is.

    I constantly reported all posts and comments like that

    No wonder you were banned.

    So, not only did Reddit moderation side with the pedos

    No they were not pedos by any reasonable standard if the characters were above 18.

    EDIT PS:
    If this was really about pedophilia, the correct place to report it is the authorities, and not to some moderators so they can hide the evidence.
    The fact that this NEVER happened, shows that OP knows he was just pearl clutching, and didn’t actually have a case.

                In view of this new information I find it pretty stupid to complain to the moderators, because being fans of that cartoon, they could likely feel the same way as those posters.
                I do however absolutely agree that sexualization of children is wrong, and that was not the point I was arguing against. I thought we were talking about something where you could see the actors were 18+.

      You’re clearly cherry picking OP’s comment there, conveniently leaving out what makes what they saw problematic.

      Those terms are specifically used by the pedo “roleplay” portion of the anime fandom, there’s not really any ambiguity there.

      Like, on the first sentence, I’d agree with you. But the second sentence makes it clear that they saw the disgusting part of the fandom.

        I have no idea about that, but if these characters were above 18, it does not fall under pedophilia. There is absolutely no room for interpretation on that.

        You guys realize that you’re talking about drawings right? Like, marks on a paper or screen?

        Even putting sexuality aside it’s like arguing over how old these “characters” are:

        One of them is 5 years old, the other is 500.

        But over here in reality, it’s all fictional and doesn’t matter because they’re just a drawing.

                  So in your mind someone getting off to a scene depicting something like that is totally fine as long as it doesn’t look exactly like a real child? You realize it is meant to represent a human child, right? Is any sort of stylized drawing fine then because it doesn’t look indistinguishable from a real person? There’s hentai explicitly about minors (like, not even high schoolers, but like fucking middle school and younger…) being raped by old dudes.

                  Shit like this is why there used to be (and still is, although to a lesser degree) such stigmatization of anime.

        I am absolutely not a pedo defender, there’s a huge difference between being attracted to an 18 year old, who in my and most countries is of legal age, and being a pedo.
        The difference apart from being attracted to children, is that at 18 years old, you are considered old enough to make decisions for yourself also called being of legal age.
        Having sex with a minor on the other hand is automatically rape, as a minor is NOT considered old enough to make decisions for themselves.

        I am disgusted that your post has an upvote. When the persons are above 18 there is no moral argument to call people attracted to them pedos.

        USA however has a weird double standard in that regard, you are of legal age when 18, but cannot drink until 21???

        This doesn’t make the slightest bit of sense, you can buy a gun, join the military, but you can’t have a drink?
        USA is a pestilence of moronic double standards, and the country is suffering from am enormous degree of moral corruption, mostly originating in the insane level of Christian fanaticism, that is more similar to the middle east Islam, than to developed democracies. Of course similar moral idiocy exist in other countries too, but almost always driven by religiosity.

          You literally are saying that it’s ok to be attracted to children just as long as their backstory is they’re over 18… everyone knows that loli shit is fucking pedo shit.

          Having sex with a minor on the other hand is automatically rape, as a minor is NOT considered old enough to make decisions for themselves.

          Cool. Glad we can agree on that.

          Except the characters you loli people are into are literally depictions of children, and you justify that shit by saying they’re a 200 year old elf or some shit.

          USA however has a weird double standard in that regard, you are of legal age when a8, but cannot dring until 21???

          What?

          Hey…hey stay with me… we’re talking about you liking or defending those who like depictions of children and saying it’s ok because you said they’re 18+…

            There’s a very strong difference between what we think and what we do.
            Being attracted to 18 year olds is absolutely legal. So what the fuck is your problem?
            By your standard role playing a wizard that kills an orc would make you a wannabe killer!
            The slippery slope pearl clutching around pedophilia is absolutely detrimental to actually protecting children against REAL pedophilia.
            For fucks sake let’s attack the real problem instead of chasing shadows!!!

              Because you’re not attracted to 18 year olds, you’re attracted to children and justify it by saying they’re 18. Huge difference.

                  Says the guy who’s suggesting that it’s ok to be attracted to children, because the characters are 200 year old elves… they’re still children.

              If you draw a baby wearing an actual diaper and arbitrarily call it a 200 year old immortal vampire, is it fine in your mind to depict it being raped by some random dude? I literally do not understand your thought process. Although, frankly, given the “difference between what we think and what we do” part of your comment, I’m not inclined to look on your thoughts particularly charitably.
