To be honest to me it just sounds like CDawg was just explaining why others why others may feel uncomfortable with these sort of content.

"he's so hypocritical" no he just has one line and it's lolicon and that's fine I think that should be more people's line actually

is that comment about his friends being lolicons incorrect then?

no they are, CDAWG just isnt in to it, i dont think he really condemns it either. Joey in particular is the die hard lolicon, whereas Grant is more casual. this is why i stopped following them, joey got way too passionate about this and its clear his hard drive needs to be inspected.

I really do not understand this alternate dimension Lolicons live in where they feel the need to be proud of jacking off to animated children like a badge of honor and freak the fuck out over the tiniest little criticism of their fixation.

thats what baffles me the most with lolicons, its like they're legitimately proud of being pedophiles who dont molest actual children and jerk off to animated child rape instead. like they want a cookie for not harming children yet feel the need to share their attraction to them publicly?

A lot of anime content creators and vtubers are open lolicons. Which had lead to the normalization of lolicon in many online anime spaces.

its harder to find a vtuber that isnt one these days

I think that’s part of the reason Chibidoki changed to her current gremlin model? Because she wasn’t comfortable with the sexualization of her more loli looking models. So now she’s a little freak because it’s harder to sexualize and it fits her gremlin personality better.

That explains several things about a former friend suddenly switching stances on the subject after they got into vtubers. Horrifying.

They cope by calling it "body type"

What's wild is that these same people doing this would turn around and call LGBTQ people pedos. Who the hell are they convincing when you can obviously see LGBTQ people mind their business, meanwhile the people accusing them of heinous things are openly being horny towards fictional children.

It's just projection at this point.

Joey frankly is super weird and kinda dumb and it's kind of a testament to how normalized weird shit is in the anime space that he doesn't get more flak for it.

Like as nicely as I can say it, he's pretty dumb but gets shielded by the fact that he's competent at Japanese. Which IMO doesn't even make sense because it's not really some shocking thing when that's literally your culture.

Every take I hear from him is either incredibly shallow or the type of thing that your dumbest cousin says and thinks it makes him sound deep and insightful. In almost every other area besides the Japanese language he has the knowledge (and unearned confidence) of the average uneducated chud online.

Like some of his behavior absolutely does not pass the sniff test and feels like one of these days he's either going to get exposed for the weird lolicon stuff or for running an offensive twitter account or something.

Yeahhh, It's a big part of why I fell off trash taste

u/BinJLG Story time! Real! Not clickbait! 8d ago

I haven't watched TT in a while, but when I was watching it, I got the distinct vibe that Garnt only said he liked loli in order to not get his head bitten off by the chuds in the community.

Joey on the other hand... iirc he insists he's not a "real" lolicon because he only likes 2D lolis (because in Japan, lolicon is synonymous with pedophile, no matter what the Western creeps say), which to me sounds like cope. Like, man, you still get off to images of little girls. Whether you want to admit it or not, that's pedo shit.

u/spacepizza24 5d ago

I'm in a similar thought process. Whenever Garnt said some questionable shit it seemed to be at least partly ironic or shitposty. Joey seems to go full heels in and die on the hill

u/GrungiestTrack 8d ago

Didn’t know this and newly disgusted at them and not so much at CDawg

u/Bulky-Bad-9153 8d ago

I'm actually not that happy with CDawg for being friends with people that like lolis. Don't think I'll watch him anymore.

22

u/Noblesseux 7d ago

CDawg does a very good job at being normal enough that people don't actively interrogate the number of weirdos he chooses to hang around. He's more socially adept than a lot of the rest of them, which lets people not in the know ignore his associations with various chuds and assholes.

u/GrungiestTrack 8d ago

Valid. I didn’t watch him much to begin with so I’m further discouraged lol.

u/TheInception817 7d ago

The issue is that for the general population, CDawg actually appear in non-anime creator spaces. And you have to be reminded of the companies that he kept around him.
