@Wizard32 “why should any subject matter be off limits?”
Because presumably we don’t want to give the normies any proverbial “ammunition” with which to justify having our site taken down?
why wouldn't Minassian and all the ER stuff be enough?
Though sure I do get the other side of the argument ie why have a site at all that’s supposed to be presumably quite a bit more freedom of speech friendly than most others out there these days, only to ultimately cuck it to a degree that would make it closer to boring hug boxes of censorship like reddit in comparison?
I suppose it comes down to a matter of priorities…
as Gutfeld would put it (even though he'd never host loli art on his show despite LARPing as a perv) we gotta share the risk
As in what matters most to you all ie being allowed to freely discuss a topic a majority of humanity has always felt to be so vile and repulsive as to be literally unspeakable (ie pedophelia) to the point we’re willing to sacrifice the entire website over it ie to be willing to die so to speak on this particularly disgusting free speech hill?
Or…
Preserving a board for “incel discussions” as well to just have a supportive incel group community at all costs to continue to be able to belong to, even if we have to sacrifice the above kind of speech in order to make it just a little harder for the normies to take the site away from us?
It's not preserving the atmosphere of based freedom or being supportive of our safe space if we have to censor over something like this, so I don't like hard rules.
I think there's a modicum of common sense and decorum though. Unless it's that one scene with POTUS from Mai-Chan's Daily Life and I'm trying to bait someone with a thread about "will it blend?" I'm not going to post babykon/toddlerkon for example.
Plus there's obvious speech like a call to violence (ie "let's kidnap and rape schoolgirls" though I can't recall seeing anyone post something like that) which should be fine to take down. Believe it or not, when shit like that gets spammed by creeps on loli art communities that gets nuked by mods.
I just think it's a slippery slope like "can't mention young girls are attractive" especially when using loaded/vague terms like pedophilia which has dual definitions, the preteen/prepubescent use in psychiatry vs the normy "any girl under 21" type bullshit we see among roasties worried about their SMV
I like to organically flip between how much loli I'm in the mood to talk about and how much thicc 20s/MILF types and if the freedom doesn't exist and it's 100% thicc all the time it will just seem forced/artificial and people will just think "this is all a farce" robbing me of the legitimacy of expressing my equally prominent "teleiophilia" or whatever they call wanting to fuck post-pubescent girls.
that still leaves us room to vehemently argue that the claim we are pedophiles is false (which it is, as most of the few people that go even younger than hebephilia are just trolling anyway).
It seems ironic to exclude younger girls from "hebephilia" since Hebe is the goddess of youth so you'd figure "the younger they are the more hebe"
My logic for doing so is "puberty is the seat of sexual differentiation" and since we're making Hebephilia about FEMALE beauty (albeit that detracts from goddess, she governed all the yoots) it makes sense to put a lower limit in regard to that period of differentiation.
if hebephilia and ephebophilia remain unbanned.
Ephebophilia should 100% be banned because that's an attraction to adolescent boys
