Except they have genuinely evil motives and cause very obvious damage to both society and male individuals.
Banning weird pedo-type shit that nobody wants to see and gets extremely uncomfortable at the thought of is fair.
Not every site has to have porn at all, much less this kind of thing.
And you think the people who make these laws and pushes don't have evil motives? That they won't cause damage to society and male individuals?
The entire "war on porn" is entirely built on "men use this to subvert women's dominance over their sexual release, therefore it must be stopped." This is just a subset of that larger war. You have shockingly large blindspots in your own zeal to how this war on men works based entirely on personal biases.
If a site doesn't want to have porn for PG reasons, that's entirely fair. Making a political statement on "freedom of speech, except things I find icky" is a different beast and that's where this battle is taking place on these sites. Its challenging that these "free speech" advocates won't back down when its even something horrific and distasteful they have to defend.
The ACLU defended the KKK for the same reasons. Because they understood at the time that compromising your rights for any reason just gets them compromised further.
This isn't like being against Twitter and Facebook blocking Hunter Biden info. It's a weird crusade for something that nobody wants to see because of some weird purity spiral.
Nobody's disputing that banning porn entirely from the internet (unless you pay your tithe to your new gods...sorry I mean unless you pay for OF..) is an obvious feminist ploy. But that doesn't mean every site has to have porn and it doesn't mean that every site that has porn has to include all types of it.
Again, that's your personal bias blocking you from understanding what is being said.
Its not some "weird purity spiral." Its understanding how foot in the door works, and how precedent in rule enforcement works. Earlier this year a giant titty short anime girl in a barely lewd SoL show was considered "pedophilia" because we let these people run amok. Austrailia considers girls with tits too small pedophilia legally no matter their age. That's what happens when you let these "weird crusades" go on unchecked, more absurd shit happens.
You have porn or you don't. That's a rule. Any other distinction beyond strict legal ones (beast, cannibal, rape, etc.) is moral enforcement and has no place in rules at any point ever if you want to be considered seriously.
And before you argue it, loli stuff was held up as free speech by the SCOTUS so it isn't illegal federally and the Protect Act of 2003 has gone unchecked by it which is the only vague law against it.
Nobody would have cared if gab didn't allow porn. But the guy in charge took a personal, moral stance against lolishit while still pretending to be a free speech crusader. That's where this particular fight evolved from.
