The parents are also heard taking issue with the fact that the bus driver appears to be dressed in a schoolgirl’s uniform. The bus driver is heard saying that they “do this every week.” “And I don’t think there’s any problem,” they are heard saying to the parents before driving away.

God y'all are fucking stupid with y'all's baseless assumptions just because you're to fucking stupid to separate that terms can have multiple means in different cultures that are entirely independent of each other.

I'm not even a fan of Lolita fashion. I just had an ex who was and they explained this to me when I used to make the same shortsighted mistake.

Literally, just go fucking Google it. It was an entire fashion trend that was popular during the 90s all the way into the 2000s in Japan, and literally the only thing it has to do with the stupid pedo book is the fact it shares a damn name.

But you stupid monkeys will see that it shares the same name and just jump to conclusions because it is easier than actually fucking learning why that is.

And putting that sticker on a bus full of young girls in catholic school uniforms is paying homage to Japanese culture? Makes sense actually.

He wasn't "paying homage" to anything.

He was just having a fun time, which happened to be dressing in the Lolita style, and then named his bus line, placing a sign in the window in reference to the fact it was the line with the driver who dresses in Lolita fashion.

But sure, keep trying to make more assumptions and leaps of logic to confirm your biases.
