There are studies that have proven your argument wrong. Loli drawings does not make someone a pedo or predator in real life just like violent video games does not make someone violent in real life. And if you think they wont keep trying to ban more and more you have not been paying attention at all.
Actually there have been TONS of examples of people complaining about loli drawings and then later on they turned out to be the actual pedo/predator in real life. There is often a lot of projection going on when people go around crying so much about drawings.
And for that matter the other things you listed literally no one would argue with you on those, if they are also just fiction that doesn't hurt any real people (the line that exists in all this is whether it actually hurts any real people or not and it does not ). . And there ARE plenty of fiction that do have "rape against women or attack ethnic group X" and if they are fiction that doesn't hurt any real person then they have the right to exist, just like fiction that might have torture or murder in it, have the right to exist cause it. isn't. real .
It fantastic that the fetishists and pedos are so outspoken in their attempts to defend their predilections, its only a pity they don't do the same publicly.
Yes, your argument makes perfect sense, the ones complaining about loli art are really secret pedos while those advocating it are purely defenders of free expression....
The same predictable things always pop up when they rush to defend their grubby little vice: slippery slope, straw men, and false equivalence.
Lolicon isn't the same as someone playing violent video games. If someone plays video games and enjoys killing SS soldiers, carnivorous aliens, or invading aliens I would say, all in all, that's a pretty reasonable stance to take. If someone's favourite genre of violent games involved kicking old ladies to death or stabbing elementary school students I would have serious concerns.
It's not an issue of loli art turning people into pedos, it's that those who are into it to the extent that they will post on places like this defending it at length already have issues that the rest of us should be concerned about. Don't expect me to reply any further, its not that I'm closed to dialogue about such issues, its that there never seems to be anything but the same old weak and tired attempts at justification.
For once it would be nice for them to come out and say "Yes, I have a creepy and worrying fixation and, to be honest, I am a little worried about the ethical nature of my sexual drives, but its my only legal source of gratification so I want to hold on to it for purely selfish reasons of sexual stimulation."
Do you think your efforts at evasion actually convince anyone that you have any other motive? (rhetorical)
What does loli art look like to you? Seriously. Because people made the same kind of "agreement" about hate speech. Now the reins to govern what hate speech is have been handed to the left. Citing FBI data and telling journalists to learn to code is now harassment. Sure, ban loli. Then anime in general gets banned. As long as you can marginalize the opposition, you can enforce a tyrannical "definition". Everything is now a power struggle to ban every opposing idea.
Loli is hot. Children are not.
All your arguments apply to Cuties but Cuties can at least argue (weakly) that its purpose is something other than the gross sexualization of children. Not hosting something is not the same as making its possession illegal. I don't want smoking in my restaurants or on planes I ride but I don't want smokers arrested.
Stop trying to pass off the sexualization of children as having any nobler aims beyond your own self-serving stimulation. It didn't pass the smell test with Cuties and it is far more obvious in this case. No one but your own kind believe you truly care about political free speech more than you do your loli porn.
Twitter, Facebook, and Google don't want conservatives arrested either. They just want to exclude their views from every platform. Payment processors, credit companies and banks don't want gun owners arrested. They just want firearms transactions off their platforms.
What's the smell test? You still can't answer this.
You seem very confused about this issue. I defend the right to post "hate speech" regarding men, women, majorities, and minorities. Do I also hate men, women, whites, blacks, asians, and everything in between?
The DIFFERENCE between loli and Cuties is that Cuties actually hurts real life kids . . So no the arguments are not the same.
