What are your thoughts on people who get “cancelled” for calling anime characters hot. Like for example someone who’s just FRESHLY 18/19 calling a 15 year old anime character hot even though they’ve liked that character for YEARS.
I literally don't give a shit bro. Those characters are a figment of someone's imagination.
It doesn't matter if a grown adult is crushing on a fictional teenager or whatever because they are not real. They're not "minors", they're a figment of someone's imagination that someone wrote about or drew.
They have no rights. The only rights they have are copyrights.
I think it's really pathetic that there's a group of people (usually teenagers and young adults) that are out there policing themselves and others over fictional content. Not only is it a harmful way to live, but it's also very cult-like.
Imagine the amount of anxiety these kids are going through because "oh shit, I'm almost eighteen now, but I still find this fictional character attractive oh god, PLEASE tell me the mangaka's gonna do a timeskip so it's okay for me to continue liking them!!!".
Most of the time, this fear isn't because they think it's immoral of them to like an underage character, but because of how their "friends" would react if they found out.
Like I said, they are a cult. They want to control and rule by fear. They are willing to harass, doxx, sui-bait, and make call-posts (for the sole purpose of bullying) to anyone because they dared to do an 'impure' act (or whatever THEY believe is 'impure'). They are more than happy to do this to people within their toxic community.
Sometimes I feel bad for these kids... but then I remember all the real-life people they've happily hurt over fictional characters. I also remember that they tend to call people "pedophiles" over BS like this to the point that the word is now completely watered down.
Anyway, here's more about this situation (this is also from the same person who wrote an academic journal that I showed you guys a while ago):
