on one hand, there are people that have only had vanilla heterosexual sex who actively contribute more to real world harm than your average fetish artist, and so kink does not determine moral standing... but on the other you still should not be attracted to depictions of children
i remember arguing with someone if Lolis were ok or not, i saw their profile and it was full of borderline Loli hentai, it revolves my stomach just remembering that...
Often your comics are exaggerating about various topics, but this isn't even an exaggeration, this is a real series of events that has occurred many times over
Hell, even if being into l0li/sh0ta doesn't *technically* make you a pedophile- the inherent attraction to infant or childlike features is in itself pedophilic, anyways.
Well, "pedophilic" is describing something that shares traits of a pedophile.
In calling someone pedophilic, for example, would be that they are showing traits of a pedophile ex. attraction to bodies resembling that of children.
The same way you're acting "psychopathic" when you play a sandbox game and quicksave to commit atrocious crimes?
Kinda diminishes the meaning of the word doens't it? A child rapist with countless victims is as "pedophilic" as a mere weeb who never touched a person of the opposite sex in decades.
It doesn't diminish it due to context- it isn't saying a lolicon is "just as bad" but rather displaying a similar attraction.
I wouldn't call a lolicon a pedophile either, but I understand the thought process of coming across such material and thinking whoever posted it is such a person.
Yes it does diminish it. Calling lolicons pedophiles allows people to harass them, insult them, make people feel proud for commiting a witch hunt against a disgusting enemy. It's not a quest for truth.
If it didn't diminish it. If it was just harmless semantics. This post wouldn't have existed.
I remember running a panel for an anime con about monster fucking, and talked about the harkness test and how something needs to be of mature sexual age for its species. one guy made it very clear he had an issue with that statement, and that moment has lived rent free in my head for 6 years now.
I'm never using Twitter again after reading what they said about this comic. And people wonder why most pointless internet drama and harassment starts on Twitter, the people there are in the late stages of lead poisoning.
"no, i dont get off to children, i get off to images/animations of children/characters that look like children in pornographic situations, where their apparent age is used as a motive of arousal, huge difference"
"no, i this doesnt say anything about me, youre the weirdo for disagreeing with me"
like, theyre basically pedos, we all know that, so i dont care if they lie cause ofc they would.
what get me is that PEOPLE FOLLOW THEM, actually functional none pedo people believe whatever they say probably cause they just wanna own the wokes or whatever
i know 0.02% of the people that say that actually believe what they say, but it baffles me how someone from outside can see that and think they are right in any way
I kinda just put two and two together and realized my morals and desires didn't always line up, so why should something I enjoy in fiction be off limits there just because it's off limits irl.
Super simple stuff. Don't have to be some insane nazi to think that.
You don’t need to pre-excuse anyone who makes that argument. Let em dig their own hole. Those who don’t have the discretion to see the opportunity to make a joke or sarcastic remark, and then NOT make it, earn every bit of flak and explaining-themself.
oh my god I remember arguing with one of those troglodytes 😭 their excuse that "drawings don't affect the real world" are crazy too, because they do affect it, they always have
yes in a way I imply, because when you make that type of art and put it out to the public, getting pleasure from it, you normalize it for your own mind and for the others who see it. that's pretty easy to understand. So even if it doesn't make people become sex offenders, it's still affecting the-
The risk isn't just in immediate harm, but in the gradual erosion of social taboos and the normalization of behaviors that society deems harmful. Even if no direct proof of causality exists, the potential for harm still warrants caution.
The amount of times i felt that i said something wrong because so many argued against me saying twitter and bluesky has a Loli hentai problem is more than id like to think about and this comic was essentially the responses i got.
Gamers are the bane of humanity. They slaughter innocents, break the Geneva convention and destroy planets. They really think a loophole in the law saves them from anything.
Few times happen to me just because I have:
-pronouns in bio because for some reason basic English is a sin to a smooth brain.
-Said “it’s a chick holding a gun while smoking a cigar” because it’s an ai image.
-Basically started an argument for a bunch of polygons for not being attractive.
The third one was just because of Tomb Raider with the original Lara Croft model and don’t think it looks attractive. I ended up doing a “hear me out” with a Master Chief photo I have with this being the photo:

...Probably.
I've never actually played Funger
I swear I hear about loli 10 times more from people that hate it than people who actually like it. It's weird.
Plus you deleted your tweet, so... Meh.
Can you prove they need to care even?
And they always use the same shit arguments.

I even tried to make one say it by replying yo one with “Drawings of…?” and the mf replied with “fictional characters” I can’t make this shit up.
You ask the age of the said character? They say it doesn’t matter cuz it’s not a real character therefore has no real age (lmaooo).
You try to ask what the fictional character is based off of? They either say-
The mental gymnastics is fucking insane.

They know they're weird. They don't care. They're not accusing you of being weird for finding them weird.
Super simple stuff. Don't have to be some insane nazi to think that.
Apparently small adults dont exist to lolicons, and the defender said age is irrelevant
With me.
Why do we draw fiction man. This isn't a hard question to answer.
No. This makes no sense. It doesn't "impact reality".
You're splitting hairs that are even there. Nobody's hurt and it's impossible for you to prove causality of indirect harm.
Drawings do not create rapists. Games do not create killers.
We were here first, the pedos can stay in the shithole that is twitter.
