The admins on lemmynsfw.com have decided to allow “non-IRL loli”, i.e. drawn porn involving children/teenagers. (Post: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/29633).
Irrelevant of the moral issues that this poses, such content is illegal in many countries (e.g the UK). Continuing to federate with lemmynsfw.com will put users at risk of significant legal repercussions.
Please would the admins consider defederating unless lemmynsfw change their policy.
UPDATE: The lemmynsfw admins posted an clarification here: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/29826. My original argument for defederating doesn’t stand any more.
Well, maybe. I’m just skeptical and feel that people have more of a tendency to isolate their islands rather than connect.
And once the disconnect happens, it’s difficult to reverse.
Maybe I’m wrong. Guess we’ll see.
On the other hand, there’s the advantage that if one finds “their own” instance, they are free to speak out their mind, while in the big melting pot there’s always a risk of offending somebody by just being a little edgy. Whether that’s actually a good thing…
