Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I know it's an unfortunate reality for anime fans to be lumped in with pedos, and I shut it down the best I can wherever I find it. How the fuck did you get to an interpretation where I'm perpetrating that kind of thinking?

I absolutely think that is the intent and I find those communities to be gross and have them all blocked.

If you think every anime fan is into that crap, you are very sorely mistaken,

How can you hold those two views simultaneously? Those communities aren't small, are you saying their entire userbases are the worst of the worst?

and if you don’t, you are using inapplicable generalizations to make a point and that’s just deceptive.

What? If you think this, you're wrong, if you don't, you're also wrong? Which is it?

Are you saying that I'm pushing the idea that NONE of them are pedos, as if I'm ignoring the probability that at least some of them are?

And it's hardly "wierdly defensive" of me to speak up when I probably created most of the communities you're shitting on.

And as that creator, I can straight up tell you, it's not the "intent".
