    So I get what you're saying, but honestly I haven't seen a reference to pedobear in the wild in probably like ten years. I get the feeling only the channers and other terminally-online messageboard types know about it.

      terminally-online messageboard types

      Like us

      Which is why it should have been considered and avoided in becoming the official site name

        No this is stupid, literally not even the place where that meme originated remembers it. The only people who would ever think such a thing are people who unironically call themselves "Internet/Meme historians".

          Bears are cool and good, but it's dumb to ignore the obvious connection to our sitename we're trying to spread and grow and the infamous pedophilia mascot.

          Site was better when it was called chapo.chat and the hexbear was just a logo meme.
