There’s a third option: taking responsibility as a community to educate kids on the harmful effects of being exposed to sexual content at a young age, and then letting them make that mistake if they really really want to. Put up a warning about how porn can damage the mind. And then give them the same freedoms as adults (when it comes to passive consumption), because restricting their freedoms would restrict everyone’s.

Age verification is a security nightmare, you shouldn’t support it. Unlike you, I hope Deviantart never asks for users’ IDs.

I agree with the message but making the argument that it’s safe for kids to watch because it’s cartoons is wrong. Kids can be fucked up by 2D furry porn, I’ve seen it happen. Still agree that age verification is a security nightmare, just think it’s a weird argument.

Actually insane to say that Collective Shout is blameless
Nobody said that. Except you, I guess.

If I were asked to list the achievements of white people and I had to do it, I’d be real catty about it. “White people invented sitcoms, gas chambers, and the word ‘staycation’”

Psychology has revealed that the ability to direct attention to and process stimulus is limited, and that it’s more limited in the most vulnerable members of society, including those with autism and those with too much stress.
Stimulus engineered to capture attention must therefore be treated by the law as a form of violence.

Praying for someone to beat the shit out of Trump with a mech suit

Wasn’t it designed by a paediatric psychologist to quantify children’s academic performance?

Yes. The first chicken egg was laid by a non-chicken reptilian ancestor. And the cycle of violence between Israel and Palestine began with the 1948 Nakba, the mass displacement and ethnic cleansing operation which ended with 78% of Palestine’s land occupied by Israel.
Give it back. There are people alive today who remember being forced to flee from their homes by Israeli soldiers during the Nakba. Let them go home.

Israel is dropping bombs on Gaza and telling the civilians whose families are murdered that it’s in the name of Jewish sovereignty. No wonder some Palestinians hate Jews. Israel is telling them to.
Stop killing their babies and their mothers, and they’ll stop joining Hamas.

Maps are a social construct. Let’s cross Israel off the map and write Palestine there instead. A Palestine where Jews, Muslims, Arabs, and people of every race and religion can live together in peace as equals.

They didn’t vote for Trump, though. The election was stolen.
Civility is one of the rules of this community. If you don’t believe you’re being civil, I’d love to hear so.
There’s no need for such aggression. Yelling won’t make me do what you want.
This conversation ended 26 minutes ago. Please don’t bother me.
I’ve decided not to pursue this conversation any further. It’s clear from the downvotes that the people here have already made up their minds. I was a fool to try and have this conversation on lemmy.ml. You can google “Hexbear transphobia”, and when you find information you don’t like, you can downvote your Google search instead of downvoting me. I’m sure that’s fair.
Hexbear is one of the most trans and queer friendly instances on Lemmy
Hexbear’s transphobia has been very well documented.
Ah, so you mean that many right wing instances are deferated, and ALSO the queers, the trans people, and the furries. Interesting. If both the left and the right are opposed to Hexbear, that would logically suggest Hexbear is centrist.
Nah I don’t see it.
