TBH the whole normalizing pedophilia thing is why I don't suggest anime to people, despite my love of the media as a whole despite its flaws.

    Ignoring that it factually doesn't do that, most anime isn't loli bait. There is a lot of pure art that even the most boring, milquetoast drone of a person (edit: that wasn't meant to be in reference to loli, but to all the quirks of anime to do need some getting used to) could enjoy.

    Reverence for good art is no excuse of ignorance of the dogshit permanently associated with the genre.

    I mean, this kind of argument is a bit stupid. Are we supposed to not recommend any books because garbage like Mein Kampf exists (and is infact still printed today)? That's some certified Grade A trash that is permanently associated with books (or more specifically, the book genre Autobiography or Philosophy).

    Mein Kampf is a book in a WWII historical autobiography genre, and I can tell you with extreme confidence that enthusiests of that genre are reluctant to say so on the first date exactly because of the Mein Kampf association.
