After an incident where anti-loli false flaggots got an account wrongfully banned for cp, ottman decided to ban loli by making false arguments similar to what 8chan owner jim watkins and gab owner andrew torba made.
Minds userbase is having none of it, and are actively calling ottman out for lying while demanding this decision be reversed.
new edit: ottman is having a meltdown, calling people bots and deleting posts.
edit: the mods need to consider banning the anti-loli spergs on this site for pointless infighting.
These bans don't seem to have done anything good for 8chan or Gab. Meanwhile Twitter gets to let such content fly so long as it's under the radar.
Alternative social media is in a "damned if they do, damned if they don't" corner on this issue. I would like to see just one of them try Twitter's approach.
Twitter refused to remove child porn spam that was posted by a sextortionist, even after the minor in question and their family provided proof he was underage.
Alternative sites should just have fundraising ready to fight questionable laws if necessary.
Twitter allows actual child porn to stay up for months and refuses to take it down, they're getting sued for it atm.
It's Twitter, nothing will happen to them.
Alternative sites on the other hand get Thanos'd like Gab's banks and Parler.
THIS might get Twitters peepee slapped because minor and he has receipts of Twitter saying no. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/twitter-sued-by-sex-trafficking-survivor
Honestly, I think it does help, but not for the way you think it does.
Yes, every provider will still go after them. Every tech company, every financial company, every company. But it seems to be a struggle to arrest every single person involved in running the site and putting them in prison for 35 years for being part of a 'child porn ring', along with putting a significant number of users in prison as well.
These places know that the establishment is prepared to use unlimited force, but is not willing to commit those resources if they aren't ensured a win. So for now, they need to pick their battles intelligently. Porn is just going to create massive legal headaches, and create an avenue of approach that will be exploited until everyone involved in running those sites is dead and most of their users arrested.
All that is required to kick it off is a communist agitator dropping files from his own stash.
Meanwhile, Twitter and Facebook will never have that concern.
Twitter has refused to remove sextorition, and Facebook has live-streamed murders & terrorism. Not a peep from the establishment.
The internet is getting more cucked by the day.
I bet this thread was a fun one for you to sift through.
I'm still going through it, but the reports are few.
Please don't tell users to kill themselves, though.
Reminder that it is not at all unreasonable to assume that every single anti-loli complainer is a pedophile. Not just because it makes perfect sense, but because of mountains of evidence.
I just stumbled on here from an outside link, and I'm starting to think the same thing. I'm not a fan of loli but I've never thought of "real" kids when I saw it. I assume people who like anime porn have a particular fetish - like furries. Generally loli fans wouldn't like CP, furries aren't into bestiality. In reverse, pedophiles and dog-fuckers might be into loli/furry art because they see everything through a sick lens, but it's probably not as satisfying as the real thing to them.
Can confirm, I'm into petite women and dislike big breasts. If I was to "translate" what I see when I look at loli art (obviously not the stuff that looks like a kid, I just find that cute, and find it kind of weird when it's sexual), the best description would be just... petite women with cute faces.
I also don't give a single solitary shit if some pedo looks at it and sees a kid, if anything, I'm glad - that means they can live their life without victimising anyone, at least.
