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.
For all the people against loli stuff, please at least stop calling it "cartoon child porn", because it really isn't comparable at all to actual child porn. Actual child porn involves incredibly damaging actions and consequence for the victims, and I think it's in incredibly poor taste to even suggest that the abuse and suffering they went through can even come close to the potential damage of an entirely fictional depiction*.
I understand your distaste for it and the desire to frame it as badly as possible, but every time I see it, it says to me "hey, child that was betrayed and attacked by people who you should have been able to trust to love and care for you, who likely damaged and traumatized you in a way that permanently altered your ability to form meaningful relationships or even function in society, you see this drawing? What happened to you is the same level of bad as this fictional scenario." I get the intention is to try and make people see it as bad as the real thing, but to me, you are cheapening and reducing the truly horrifying nature and consequences of it. You wouldn't say someone having a Tamagotchi die and an actual living pet die is at all comparable, so why is it the same here?
*There have been cases of artists using real stuff/people for "reference", and in that case it might as well be the same as victimizing them all over again.
It's illustrated pornography of children. There's no way around that and no amount of rationalization from the people who create and fap to this stuff will change that.
Indeed, much like how playing Call of Duty is artistic criminal plotting and attempting murder. After all, pixels are real people! Fiction == Reality! Ride on my sibling-of-undeclared-gender-and-pronouns! Together we ride that soapbox! Down with video games, for every time someone plays a game of Civilization, they're LITERALLY committing artful genocide upon the world!
I am glad I've finally found my people, those who know that writing about something is the same as doing it, and making a picture worth 1000 words is equivalent of doing the action 1000 times. Glory be! Our next target shall be Monopoly, for violating property management tax laws!
Why am I not surprised a fucking French Canadian is defending pederasty.
I'm not, my undeclared-gender-and-pronouns-sibling! I am with you! Perhaps the first target was too ambitious? We can instead go after the Protestant Church, for their holy book depicts actually-they're-over-900-years-olds and also details people underage mating! AND common-law housing arrangements without proper taxation treatment! Not to mention the mass murders! As bad as George R. R. Martin's filthy lolicon books, they are!
