The Anti-Censorship DNP Pledge

So would you agree that those who draw Aryanne are your equals and should be free to express their art and free from censorship and oppression.

If said drawing does not express the Nazi philosophy of racial inequality, it could fit. And there is some debate on what depictions do or don’t.
 
And fair’s fair - if they can’t produce art that degrades such rights, I can’t either.

So in other words some are more equal than others, and all wrongthink described by the ministry of love should be illegal.

There’s extremes on both sides, definitely. However more have been in the middle than you would expect. More than that, the overwhelming majority of people seem to just want a decision at all so this can end and we can go back to looking at cute ponies.
 
Quite frankly you don’t even know how much anxiety lifts that you started to talk about the matter in open manner. I realize that you likely wanted to stop the kneejerk reaction cycle, collect your thoughts and feedback, but it still was taxing to have endless discussions without the input from the top.
 
So generally thanks that you partake now.

So can we all just agree to disagree and say that whether we like what it is about or not, it is the right of the artist to draw what he, She, they, or it wants as that is an expression of their artistic vision which regardless of intent shall be interpreted differently by others who have similar or different artistic vision? Because like any work of art it is seen with different eyes and thought about in different ways due to us all being human beings?  
When you look at the Mona Lisa do you look at the detail put into the art? Or do you look at the expression of the woman who was painted? Or do you analyse the fuck out of it because of the illuminati? Which of these three views is correct? In the end, does it matter why you look or what you look for? Because in the end these three people are all looking and appreciating that same Singular art piece.

I give Raptorshy respect for putting herself in the front line of turning the ship back. Then what the previous admins had this site going towards. It like they wasn’t really prepare to deal with this kind of outrage.
 
This was a typical SJW tactic that was use to destroy many niche hobbies. All it take is just a knee jerk reaction or you to cave into pressure by them. Which then open yourself to this divisive cycle that create two sides of the argument. Forcing you to pick a side because one wants to destroy the other for this hobby. This is the tactic that was done to many people(including myself) who aware of it at this point. After have their niche hobbies destroy by them long ago. I’m surprise they haven’t learn sooner.

First there is the idea, then you get the action.
Allowing nazi ponies might make people sympathize with actual Nazis which could support and lead to the rise of the next Hitler. Especially in todays troublesome political times.
You have to kill the idea, so that the action doesn’t even happen.
 
Are you a jew?  
How much delusional can you be without pushback?  
Do you really think you can kill ideas? Because it had been tried before and only resulted in those ideas to grow exponentially.  
If would be the possibility of a resurgent National Socialism is only because of a resurgent judaism.

I brought up this entire topic to [of all people] my mother who wanted to make sure that ‘There is an easy way for visiters to know how to properly toggle the art they wish to view. Have like a front page sticky that Explains how the Tag, filter, and search system works. Yes this is probably in the forums… which is where a smart person looks, but assume for the moment that the person your dealing with has an Iq equal to a grapefruit cup. Yes its annoying but it should help you all out.’

Silent majority? Really? Most people here are apolitical, and do not care about any political things at all. Mostly because of filters. How long it will be until you understand that it is not really an issue about banning Nazi content, but an issue of censoring things? About slippery slope? About hypocrisy of banning one type of imagery, but allowing another, which is in fact the same?

slippery slope is a falesy.
 
Also where have I said i object to censoring Stalinist content?  
You’re putting words into my mouth I have not spoken.
 
And as you claim, if somebody does something, people have the right to object to that content. Freedom of Speech does not mean freedom from consequences

I’m so tired of how radical a lot of people (particularly Americans) are when it comes to moderation/censorship issues.
 
Like, I understand they might not be necessarily defending what is being moderated/censored and just defending against censorship. But they half the time are acting simply because it might impact their interests/art/ect in the future.
 
They fail to have the empathy to understand why it’s being moderated and they fail to understand how that content impacts people. Because, if it doesn;t impact them personally, they don’t care. And quite frankly, it’s selfish
 
If they want such content then they can either go where it is more appropriate or maybe stop and think WHY it might not be a good thing.

The fact that this thread will soon be 200 pages long because of trolls like Latecomer is dishearting.  
Day after day the idea of alternate boorus become more and more appealing…

You claim troll, yet all he is doing is challenging your nonsensical stance and is actuall debating in good faith.
 
Cause, if you think he’s trolling, you need to reevaluate things. Because there has been ALOT of trolls who are actually trolling removed from this thread.
