So im sure by now people have noticed that sjws dont care about actual pedos, they completely ignore actual pedos, but they have an irrational hatred over short fictional anime characters, to the point where they are now basically just doing the "anything short is pedo" and Amazon is completely removing the "short body type" in Blue Protocal. Yeah they just erased short characters completely.
Calling it "pedo" is just a cover for the real grievances they have, the real reason for the irrational hatred of petite female characters and anime and Japanese games in general, and it is the same reason they removed jiggle physics from the game. They think it caters to "the male fantasy". But they cant say this is the reason ,so they just say that its "pedo bait"
Its a multifolded issue that they distilled into an easy buzzword.
The most obvious, is that everyone fucking hates pedos. So if they put that word into the discussion, suddenly people who are their ideological rivals are pushed onto their side. You can see how often people on this side of the "culture war" will just instantly jump to "EVIL" if something can vaguely be associated with a possibility of a pedo. No logic needed, just the same thought terminating "you pedo, woodchipper, argument invalid."
The other is that short women in these shows are also generally youthful. They are attractive to men on an instinctual level because men are just attracted to younger women, with the shortness just being the most easily described aspect of their "moe" and other labels.
And as we've learned from the DiCaprio situation among many others, women and trannies fucking hate anything men find attractive that they don't have. Women hate the youthfulness because they've lost theirs via years of sluttery, trannies hate it because they will never be tiny and cute.
Its actually quite an interesting thread to unravel, because you can see how all the pieces fall together to create what is otherwise a simple accusation.
