Hey don't call mods pedos without evidence or risk getting banned does not need an explanation

there wolf posted:

Yes, the majority of pedophiles know acting on the impulse would be terrible and so they don't do it, instead indulging in it through media and roleplaying with other adults. As much as it sucks, it's likely that sexual attraction to prepubescents is a hardcoded sexuality the way hetero and homosexuality are, in which case the proshippers have a point that having that sort of content serves a social good, providing an outlet for desires that cannot be actually realized.

But thats one part of what would be a complex argument even for reasonable adults. In fandom it's a loving nightmare sucking in a whole whole host of toxic behaviors that have been normalized in that space.

This is how I read it as well.

Especially since “Fluff” is ambiguous with “fat.”

So the pedo mod should "please never come back" but the poster who made a fat joke should gently caress himself and definitely never come back. Incredible mod decisions as expected from a SA admin.

fat jokes are racist now? loving koala march would shudder at that reach

I think it might have been read as a colorism comment and idk anything about fluffdaddy other than they seem to be really aggressively angry all the time and prone in need of a chill pill but maybe colorism is something they deal with in their real life so it cut deeper than the casual reader might see it as? Without a whole lot more context I have a real hard time seeing that as the most likely interpretation though and it’s far more likely a joke about being heavy handed or maybe a fat joke

Exactly the response you'd expect from an admin rocking an avatar that that has a black coat with a red armband and a red, black, and white cross-shaped symbol on their chest, but it's different symbols so it's totally not Nazi-themed and the anime character just likes Hugo Boss.

Banning the mod you appointed for being a pedo-apologist is a good thing, doesn't make up for all the bad you do though.

It's absolute nonsense if you try to read it as a racist insult. It's either a straightforward fat joke or the most awkwardly phrased but also pointlessly on the nose and humorless colorism out of nowhere.

regardless of literally everything else being posted here i think the ban on homeless friend is not justified. i do not think it is at all likely they were making a racial insult as oppressed to a fat joke.

I wouldn't consider binning a pedophile mod much of a sacrificial lamb when it apparently has to happen in the wake of banning multiple people rightly poke at the mod team for having a history of this kind of problem. If anything it's a good argument for why the mods should act like they're made of sterner stuff than crippled puppies out of a children's cartoon.

And let's all take a moment to appreciate our proud history of site managers who pop in the loudest when it's time to lay out bans as spitefully as possible for personal grievances. That's always led to good and funny things.
