Not pedophiles; ephebophiles. Still gross, but adults remember their sexual awakenings and early experiences around the same time so it’s at least reflective of life experience. However, if you’re in late 20s and up jerking off with your waifu pillow you should seek help

Just joking about Japan because I view the population as into pedophilia because of animes

New word learned! Thanks :)
It’s often that yea, but there’s a lot of pedophilia in media as well (lolis, or animes that flat out states characters are under 15 yo and are sexually active)

now it’s even more racist

I guess the meaning of racism got lost in the way
But yea besides, anyone who watched some Japanese content knows that it’s a recurrent theme. I guess you’re just all turning a blind eye on this subject. Calling a whole continent fascist is alright but calling Japan a country of pedophiles isn’t… (jokingly, ofc, we all know ALL Japanese are not like this, the majority aren’t (I hope))
Double standards people. But seriously, I think this subject can be talked about. I would much rather prefer someone proving me wrong than to be censored as a “racist”, which is baseless.

You literally said you “view the population”, as in everyone, a certain way based on this.
You then admitted it’s not the majority.
That’s about as racist as you can get.
Calling a country fascist for having fascist people in power is not the same thing.

Sorry for not being clear on this subject. I thought people would get it.
If you think that’s the most racist thing that exists, I can’t help you. Re-check your definitions
Its in the line of the original stereotypes used for humor. It gets bad when you take it seriously. Much like “if you go to school in the USA you’ll get shot” or shit like that. Exaggerations that point out something. Wasn’t meant to be discriminating in any way, sorry if took like that.
There must be countries where this issue (pedophilia) is way more real. I’m only pointing this out as the Japanese media I know often trivializes this subject and it shocks me.

We call America fascist because its government is. That doesn’t say anything about the people who live there. Calling North Korea a tyranny doesn’t make every one of its citizens a tyrant.
Calling Japan “a country of pedophiles” is generalising to the whole population and therefore racist. No double standards there. And it’s not just because loli exists that they have more pedophilia than we do.

Generalizing to the whole population isn’t called racism. About the other thing, I already made it clear it was a stereotype, and as such, not my true belief. Still, I think it’s worth noting.
I do think there’s more pedophilia there based on the fact that more media depict it and people aren’t really grossed out by it. I might be wrong though, I’m not basing myself on any fact, just intuition (except that iirc they had some problems with laws not being harsh enough on this subject)
