This is awful, I had a lot of laughs reading crunchy comments. In a way it was one of the biggest anime communities. Maybe we can start a lemmy for them.

I mean, if bigots took over all the comments to fill them with hate speech on a Lemmy instance, it might makes sense to shut that down, too.

That would make sense, but I never saw hate speech in crunchy comments, but I only read the first page so I am sure the more controversial posts were further down. Oh well, can’t afford mods…

I hadn't seen any significant hate speech until this June, when a handful of dumbasses decided to start spewing homophobia in multiple comment sections because they're mad rainbows exist. It wouldn't surprise me if there were a lot more on shows I wasn't watching.

I didn't spend any time at all in the comments, but the news articles I've read link the sudden uptick in bigotry to a show called Twilight Out Of Focus which features a gay couple in the lead roles. Homophobes were so mad that a show with gay characters exists that they were overwhelming every comment section on every show with slurs and ignorance.
