Do you mean depictions of lolis being sexualized? That'll only upset the most depraved.
If someone has to justify something by comparing it to the literal thing, they already know the correlation.

As excpected, (tho, thankfully not many) people here who don't use twitter at all believe at face value the misinformation provided by OP.

Pretty much no artist (japanese or otherwise) uses that tag to get more exposure of their work.
You can still search that tag by writing "loli_" or similar stuff, and the word still appears in the trending topic sometimes.
As someone mentioned in a very early post, apparently actual pedos, which were pretty much allowed to be on twatter before the Musk take over, were using the tag to find each other and promote their sickening fetish, at least according to Musk himself, Jordan Peterson, and a few others. (reason why "shota" and loli written in other languages, like japanese, hasn't been touched)
If Musk ends up banning loli hentai at the end it won't be because of the content itself, but because he will ban NSFW posting altogheter, there is a reason Twitter is the only social media site of this kinda where porn is allowed, is hard to manage problematic stuff like CP while allowing others forms of pornography, Tumblr used to have this problem and they solved it that way.

Loli isn't sexual or anything. Why ban the word? It's just a child anime girl. I understand lolicon, but not loli.

There is an implied sexual condonation associated with the word. This isn't the early 20th century when the word "Gay" simply meant "happy". The same goes with "loli" and it being used these days is far from before the 1950s. Unless you are a complete moron, you know it's typical Urban slang. Dealing with Twitter anything associated with such a tag would likely lead you to sexual related content.

This is the definition of urban dictionary:

Loli
Loli has 3 definitions, arranged according to popularity. (Source at the bottom)

1. Loli - Young girl/Young-looking girl; age neutral; SFW by default. Its also used to describe a body type, age is ignored.

Its an abbreviation of Japanese colloquial word "Lolita", which has exactly the same meaning defined above. (Don't confuse it with the twisted American definition of "Lolita".)

2. Loli - Abbreviation of Lolita Fashion. example: goth-loli, wa-loli, hime-loli, etc.

The 'Lolita' in Lolita fashion is also derived from the same 'Lolita' defined in (1). Its a victorian style fashion mixed with Japan's kawaii culture.

3. Loli - Abbreviation of lolicon (Lolita Complex), which is an attraction to loli(1). The attraction can be non-sexual, or sexual. Barely anyone uses 'loli' as 'lolicon', to the point that no one actually knows that this definition even exist. Only used in a very specific context, or very 'special' kind of people.

Hentai sites doesn't actually use this definition in their tags, they use the first definition. Ironically, this is used by 'special' people in twitter, tiktok, and even facebook, just to fit their narrative that this word is a 'bad/derogatory' word, and will only spread this definition to others, ignoring the first and second definition.

Sorry to burst your bubble here but "loli" is also short-form for "lolisexual". I am not taking any particular stance on this issue about Twitter because frankly I don't really care that much about the platform or lolis. I have never even been a registered user of Twitter before.

The origin of loli or lolicon manga is sexual, but at some point we started using the term to refer to young/cute looking girls without any inherent sexual meaning present in either design, clothing, intention, etc.

Ironically Loli isn't even a term the Japanese use. Loli is completely a western term and has been bastardized by online communities such as Anime communities.

That's not true. Loli comes from Lolita, and lolicon comes from Lolita Complex. You can read about the lolicon boom of the 80's in Japan.

There is no L sound in Japanese. I am not sure who you been talking to in Japan, but whoever originally translated what ever into "Lolita Complex" it certainly wasn't the Japanese.

The word originally came from Vladimir Nabokov's book "Lolita". Last time I checked the guy was Russian.

You're way off base here. Japan coined "lolicon" a portmanteau of "lolita complex", it's completely irrelevant that Lolita comes from Nabokov. Second, it is not that "L" doesn't appear in their language, there's no L sound which is why it's pronounced with an "r" as in "rorikon". An example of a term that Japan doesn't use whatsoever is "trap" that's an entirely western creation.

I think you are a bit off base here. Being someone who has lived in Japan before, the only time I have heard the term lolita used is in reference to "Gothic Lolita" as a fashion trend in Japan. Which is completely different to how westerners use the word. I have never even heard some neckbeard Japanese otaku even in Akihabara at a Comiket ever use the word Loli before.

This is coming from some user who "knows Japanese".

While there is a way to pronounce "Loli' in Japanese and a way to spell it using Katakana. No one actually uses the word loli in japan to specifically refer to cute children in Anime. it's uses to reference "Gothic Lolita".

Either way I already knew this because I have actually lived there long enough and have actually had conversations with people in Japan specifically about Anime.

Further more in regards to Anime, instead of the word "loli" the Japanese have their own slang term called "chibi".

How you can possibly think this says anything whatsoever? That person says the romanization isn't commonly used, that's it, nothing definitive about whether or not "loli" is a word in the Japanese lexicon, other than giving an example about gothic lolita. Also, the question was never about whether the Japanese still use loli in the same exact modern usage as westerners, the question was whether or not there's an observable history of the term lolicon in Japan, which there absolutely is. Lastly, how the fuck is "chibi" even remotely comparable to loli when they're completely different concepts? If you're going to make me continue this banal conversation, then I'll just find you the damn sources, but don't expect me to spell everything out for you.
