These kinds of jokes used to be made a lot. The premise is that it makes no sense to make the joke if you are a pedo… so I would assume they just made a joke that is not seen the same way these days. South Park would 100% make this joke now though, and (almost) no one would care.

Ah well, see the problem there is you’re not accounting for people who aren’t funny.

I’m the only one in my friend group that watches anime and it led to them making lots of pedo jokes at my expense. I’m not a pedo and my friends know that. It’s just a running joke. And then they make a joke when someone new is around and everyone needs to explain I’m not actually a pedo…

And that's why you don't do racist, sexist or pedo jokes online. No matter obviously non serious you think you are, some idiot will agree with you.
