    Even though I don’t 100% agree with the defederation, it’s a bit alarming how quick commenters are to chastise their decision. Why risk being federated with a community that will allow or seek “childlike” NSFW content? That’s just asking for trouble, so I can understand why an instance would avoid being associate with that. That’s a huge risk for someone hosting a fairly large instance, especially with the criticism and accusations the LGBTQ+ community has been subject to recently

      Exactly this. Right wing propaganda already portrays the LGBTQ+ community as child groomers who are sexualizing minors.

      Forget gasoline or lighter fluid: allowing federation with “barely 18!” content would throw a whole propane tank on that fire.

        Right wing propaganda also portrays Sex Ed as grooming, defends child marriage, and regularly threatens anyone they don’t like. Up to and including attempting a coup.

        You don’t negotiate with terrorists. They won’t stop because of it, they just get bolder.

          That’s just dumb.

          Imagine that they want children to be ignorant of themselves more (imo it seems by sex ed, they are learning the concept of consent and so on, please correct me or add more context down below cause I can’t fully express this in words), so that people (the adults) can take advantage of that fact (for their disgusting opportunities).

          If they have been dumb like this for the past decades, they are enabling/encouraging p3do behavior more among their ranks, then (i.e., disgusting “child abuse rings” on news from time to time).

          Saying you need to protect yourself from this perverted filth is not really any different from what the right wing is doing to the LGBT community.

          That’s an unfortunate exaggeration right? Not wanting to see or deal with communities who feel it’s sexually enticing to look at “childlike” and “barely 18” porn is clearly different from wanting gay, trans and queer people to stop existing.

        Oh no! Barely 18? As in an adult? Adults in porn?! Call the fucking cops. Not like there is a 1000 porn studios with 18 in their name.

        And if you’re taking action because of how right wing propaganda might misinterpret it to paint you in a bad light, that’s just pathetic.
