How is PedoBear allowed to be an emote?

Does this emote not like clearly encourage pedophilia? I see it used in chat only toward purposes which are clearly against Twitch Community Guidelines. I literally encourage moderators to time out people who use this emote.

Child pornography is absolutely not a joke. Please remove this emote.

An emote in twitch chat is unlikely to encourage pedophilia in any form irl. The emote itself was made out of the common memes that had formed at the time on the internet. If you check out the origin of the meme, it is actually a message towards moderators that inappropriate stuff is going on and should be banned, outside of that it had become a silly funny image used with captions as jokes. http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/pedobear

A lot of the original BetterTTV emotes are similar type of ragecomic/captionated memes. Some people don’t understand the origins and similar, but that’s something easily learned.
