I will start by saying I have toyed with posting this because as soon as someone says they don’t wanna see it, someone will make a community for it. However I feel like some of the stuff that makes Reddit annoying is creeping over. And just because I don’t like it does not mean its not a valid community. So if it is least put in the right place (rather that the bigger generic communities) I can then just filter or block it.

Ill start I don’t want to see

  • Am I the arsehole
  • Relationship drama
  • Celebrity worship/drama

So what communities DON’T you want to see here?

    Controversial, but fauxbait. It means “fake jailbait”. Jailbait, of course, refers to lewd pictures of underage girls. So fauxbait is women who are of the age of majority, but strive to look as young as possible. They shave and wax, they don’t eat as much as they should, and they’re generally short to boot, so it looks like you’re looking at a middle school kid, but it’s really someone who can drink at the bar in America (21+).

    Especially since Lemmy is so big on exposing the people in the Trump-Epstein files who are trafficking and abusing young women and girls, I don’t want to see people posting fauxbait. It makes the whole fediverse look bad. Like we don’t care about the girls, we only wanna take down the billionaires, and we only pretend to care about their extracurricular activities because it’s ethical leverage.

    I guess if you’re 17-20, these girls are fine to you, but I’m pushing 50 and have nieces and nephews who are older than that. I like seeing grown women as much as the next guy, but if my first thought is, “she needs to put something on,” she’s probably too young (or is trying to look that way) and that’s something I don’t wanna see.

      I think this one is very pertinent, I don’t see a lot of fauxbait here but I get frustrated at the Anime when some of it skirts with similar issues. I know its a cartoon but it still perpetuates it, and it seems acceptable to portray sexualised youth because ya know it’s just cartoon culture (yeh its not). The normalisation in so many areas is horrible to see.
