As I get older, the more I understand the intensity of defense for nsfw that I wouldn’t have understood if I was a teen.

While I ain't "old", I'm old enough to have seen the drastic shift in censoring japanese hentai
- the anime boom had started here in the states and Japan was getting labeled as the weird place that makes weird porn so they started heavy censoring to get less US flack

The problem with this is when you create a media for a specific purpose (adults only) then censor it, who exactly are you now catering too if those buying it aren't allowed to see it?

Imagine selling a dull sword that can't be sharpened and saying "take it or leave it".....
Wack..

Sure...
The weebs, weirdos and gooners all fought for their right to fatt anime titties and dicks without black bars (Myself included), but corporations and constituents dictate what can and can't happen

Best the people can do is make our own fan art and show em how it's done!

Is it really for US censorship? That’s messed up 🤔 USA always at the scene of the crime

If I recall that was one of the chief reasons but they later worded it in such a way to sound more "Tactical"?

Even the dragon warrior/quest creator stated a few years back about how redesigns had to be done to avoid higher ESRB ratings in the US

Dude got sooooooooo much flack for that interview it's sad

But he spoke 100% truths about how the system works. If he wants better sales in the US, he has to adhere to US stigmas/censorship to make those sales...

Here in the US, violence is fine but skin is a sin... And it's only getting worse

In a rise of fascism, first they come for porn, next they come for people in your community that you’ve ostracized not specifically because they cause harm, but because it gives you social morality points. lastly, they come for you and your friends. Because the line of defense is no longer there.

Just a food for thought for younger lgbt folk who are now raised in the pits of discourse like I was. The weird micro discourse shit they make you focus on to tear apart your own community is useless and a waste of your youth. You learn to attack your own instead of learning to be able to unite

Life’s too short to be weird about NSFW stuff. I never thought I would have to put these words together in one sentence, but if you’re susceptible to anti-NSFW movements, then you’re also dangerously susceptible to fascism. What a crazy pipeline.

I feel like it’s kind of a lost cause at this point, besides the baseline defending pornography’s right to exist. There was a semi-viral post going around saying you need to defend all pornography from the onslaught that’s coming, and instead of universal agreement, there was just so much infighting

Yeah, I saw that. It really makes me sad that people are so brainwashed and unkind
