    It’s understandable when it comes from niche programs with solo devs. You are likely to be a degen when you spend your whole day in front of your computer. So you likely also have degen habits like the one here. But if it’s from group of devs then yeah that’s straight up irritating.

    Also you in the sense not you. English not my main language.

      Hur durr… You have different interests… Therefore degenerate…

      Do you even realize how incredibly stupid the whole concept of tribalism is?

        My understanding of degeneracy is well defined.

        degenerate behavior, especially behavior considered sexually deviant

        Fortunately I do not have any interest on little kids so yes it is deviating from my/societal interest therefore a degen.

          That’s where you’re wrong kiddo. The downvotes are because you are jumping to conclusion about lolis and other sexualization.

          The fascination with child personas for most anime fans are just that. It’s cute. The same ways dogs are cute, and cats are cute. I really doubt they have a fetish on children, although there are some that do. I really don’t think it’s right to mash them all together.
