    For those who don’t know: Yandere Simulator is a “game” which has been in development for a decade where you play as a high school girl whose a “Yandere” (a Japanese trope for a crazy stalker/lover). You’re in love with a boy and you have to kill your competition.

    The developer recently got in hot water for grooming an underage girl (video covering the allegations) and then threatening her to silence her, and making her attack the person she’d confided in/had released the video and defend himself. He also doxxed her.

    The official subreddit completely supports him. Visit r/Osana for any actual criticism/updates.

    As I said in my comment, I didn’t know about the content of the game. I don’t mean to come across as such. I apologize for the misunderstanding, I don’t mean to defend the developer or the game or the content within it, I just wanted to info dump about the subject itself.

      Now that’s done, let’s talk about the fact you moderate /r/NoahGetTheBoat on reddit-logo, a sad sad place where fash are roaming free and racism and transphobia are commonplace.

      I guess my question is, what’s up with that ?

        This user is clearly someone who LOVES Hanlon’s Razor, so much in fact that they seem to want to stay ignorant about the topic they were engaging in just so they could play the fool. In short, you’re talking with someone who subscribes to the “see no evil” theory of moderation, make of that what you will.

        That? Easy.

        The racism and transphobia dropped majorly when I came on, up to and including instabans and heavily edited automod rules to remove 90% of the content that was previously being posted which broke the subs rules (including the aforementioned content, agenda posting, and more)

        I left reddit a few months back, and I couldn’t tell you one way or another where things went after that.

        I can’t claim I handled it all, of course. There was one other majorly active mod, though I won’t name them. And I don’t claim we were able to remove all of the content, since we could only remove what was reported or that we ourselves saw.

        I’m happy to talk more on modding that community if you like. It was an experience, to say the least. The number of ways people got around the automod rules was infuriating.

            While I can’t comment on the original intent behind the name, what I took it as, and how I moderated, was simply to showcase humans being bad. The religious aspect was more satirical in nature. Especially considering the amount of “priest/catholicism/pastor” content that was posted, much of it by myself.

            There was no calling for death, or even threatening of violence allowed. Even a hint of it was removed, since it wasn’t meant to be a place to threaten people or call for their deaths.

            The alternative is to pretend the world is perfect and no one has anything to worry about, which is just a falsehood.

            Think of the community more like the antithesis of r/humansbeingbros

              Stop making excuses for cryptofascists fantasizing about harm coming to undesirables, “ironically” or otherwise.

              The alternative is to pretend the world is perfect and no one has anything to worry about, which is just a falsehood.

              You’re a fucking clown if you believe the only alternative to fantasizing about harm coming to undesirables is some impossible utopia, therefore better bring on the cryptofascism.

                  Believe what you want

                  You’re a fucking liar that has spent hours going to bat for a pedophilic torture/murder fantasy game while pretending you knew nothing about it. I don’t have to believe. I know you’re a liar.

                  If you believe otherwise, that ain’t on me.

                  Yes, you moderate a cryptofascist sub for cryptofascists like yourself. That part is believable.

    Again, link my pedo apologizing. How the hell am I supposed to “defend myself” when the accusation doesn’t even point to something to defend.

    All I did in that thread was *checks notes* describe what the word Yandre meant.

      Dawg I don’t do anime shit and have never heard of that game, but like you I had just read that the premise of said game is terrorizing (like literally torturing) high school girls. See, that’s when I make the easy as fuck choice to not step in and reflexively defend the pedo game. The fact that you did is weird as shit.

          You said it sounded “non-sexual” when it’s obviously pedo fetish shit. The developer is literally a groomer. That’s what the thread was about.

              So you jumped in to defend the pedo fetish game made by a groomer that you know nothing about why exactly?

      I mean looking at your comments you’re technically correct I guess. What was the purpose of coming to the defense of “yandre” though? The guy and his game seem to be disgost if everyone else in the thread is to be believed, I’m not sure what defending him accomplishes.

          I have ADHD as well and also know about the yandere subculture and also know not to reflexively jump in to clarify the nuances of the fetish of the man being accused of pedophilia. If I did do that and people called me out on it, I would simply back down and say “I know nothing about the game, so I don’t want to comment further here.” Not to minimize your experiences; sounds like a skill issue though mari-smug

          You know, if a lot of people are suddenly piling on you in unison to say that you made a fuck up, you’re actually allowed to just say “yeah my bad I’ll do better in the future” and no one will continue to make fun of you. This thread is popping right now because with every comment you make that isn’t “my bad” your position gets significantly funnier.

          So you just incidentally defended “yandre” in this context because you really like informing people that “yandre” isn’t always sexual? You’re just a normal non- sexual yandre enjoyer who accidentally stumbled into a conversation about a weird pedo game and felt the need to clarify that this um… genre… is not necessarily sexual by default.

          Sure I guess. Can you see why in the context of the thread it could be interpreted as a knee jersey defense of the yucky thing being discussed?
