But yea besides, anyone who watched some Japanese content knows that it’s a recurrent theme. I guess you’re just all turning a blind eye on this subject. Calling a whole continent fascist is alright but calling Japan a country of pedophiles isn’t… (jokingly, ofc, we all know ALL Japanese are not like this, the majority aren’t (I hope))
Double standards people. But seriously, I think this subject can be talked about. I would much rather prefer someone proving me wrong than to be censored as a “racist”, which is baseless.
Sorry for not being clear on this subject. I thought people would get it.
If you think that’s the most racist thing that exists, I can’t help you. Re-check your definitions
Its in the line of the original stereotypes used for humor. It gets bad when you take it seriously. Much like “if you go to school in the USA you’ll get shot” or shit like that. Exaggerations that point out something. Wasn’t meant to be discriminating in any way, sorry if took like that.
There must be countries where this issue (pedophilia) is way more real. I’m only pointing this out as the Japanese media I know often trivializes this subject and it shocks me.
We call America fascist because its government is. That doesn’t say anything about the people who live there. Calling North Korea a tyranny doesn’t make every one of its citizens a tyrant.
Calling Japan “a country of pedophiles” is generalising to the whole population and therefore racist. No double standards there. And it’s not just because loli exists that they have more pedophilia than western countries do.
Generalizing to the whole population isn’t called racism. About the other thing, I already made it clear it was a stereotype, and as such, not my true belief. Still, I think it’s worth noting.
I do think there’s more pedophilia there based on the fact that more media depict it and people aren’t really grossed out by it. I might be wrong though, I’m not basing myself on any fact, just intuition (except that iirc they had some problems with laws not being harsh enough on this subject)
Western pornography is often about “teens” who are “barely legal” because they just turned 18, and the younger they look the more popular they get. That’s also borderline pedophilia. I’m not saying this is wrong as long as it’s legal, but sometimes it feels icky. Loli is practically the same. I don’t believe that it means that Japan has more pedophiles.
Loli is a bit more extreme though, not teens but rather children 😵
I was also referring to the fact that sometimes, animes flat out state that they’re vastly underaged without even hiding, and it doesn’t really seem criticized. But yea, it’s a bit disgusting and they must have they target audience
I guess the meaning of racism got lost in the way

You literally said you “view the population”, as in everyone, a certain way based on this.
You then admitted it’s not the majority.
That’s about as racist as you can get.
Calling a country fascist for having fascist people in power is not the same thing.

Not false! You have a point there!
