@hannnahkbm@vexmlk@PayPal if god actually was such a petty being as to feel anything at being mocked by its own creation, it's not a being worth worshipping.
@FortniteBoye I wasn't trying to shut down dissent. People can criticize it all they want. There's no way to stop ongoing e-whoring without changes to the law and/or the way society treats it. And you most certainly won't achieve either by harassing people. Voicing dissent isn't harassment.
@FortniteBoye That's a different argument. Whether both have social consequences isn't the point.
You can believe selling nudes is harmful and still think dogpiling people over it is an unjustified or harmful response. One doesn't automatically follow from the other.
@FortniteBoye "If you don't like it, don't consume it" was about personal participation in the content. Dogpiling isn't content consumption. It's an (almost always destructive) action taken against other people. You're comparing opting out of something with actively targeting someone.
@FortniteBoye Antisocial behavior like dogpiling people online for the most mundane shit. Selling nudes online isn't antisocial as much as it is exploitative and some might consider it immoral. If you don't like it, don't consume it and have a clear opinion you can articulate when relevant.
@boredpanda97019@kelsburn3r That statement alone was a lot more useful than simply saying "I hate em". You provided your thought process. You gave the "other" a chance to understand why. That alone is a lot more helpful than what most people on this website do about it. It's not so hard.
@boredpanda97019@kelsburn3r Emotions help as a first sign when something's wrong with your mental or physical state. You're not supposed to let yourself be ruled by them. That's how you become an animal instead of a human. Feel hate? Find out why. Try to fix the underlying issue.
@boredpanda97019@kelsburn3r Hating a person is unproductive. Condemning undesirable behavior is what elevates humans beyond savagery. Distrusting an individual based on their previous and current behavior is different from senseless hatred based on assumed affiliation.
@Digital_Heretyk@Inq_Machina@kelsburn3r Yeah so the problem isn't that the content exists, that's a symptom of the core problem. Ideally, there'd be no need for it. I'm not smart enough to clearly name the core problem myself and I'm sure the solution is just as elusive.
@boredpanda97019@kelsburn3r The nuance here is that people on this accursed platform seemingly can't differentiate between the individual and the behavior. It's always advisable to condemn abhorrent behavior, no matter who the target is. I couldn't give less of a shit about the person it affects here.
@Digital_Heretyk@Inq_Machina@kelsburn3r Not making excuses. Just saying that I believe that if there's a demand, people will cater to it. I agree that online content that just caters to lust fulfillment is probably doing a lot of damage. But there's a reason people go online for it instead of IRL.
@Inq_Machina@kelsburn3r Heavily depends on the culture but prostitution is one of the oldest professions. Equating sharing nude pics with actual prostitution is something I disagree with personally but I get why you'd do so. It does prey on the lonely and vulnerable but there's demand for it.
@kelsburn3r Easily influenced, tribalistic savages like you are the exact reason why the people in charge think they can do whatever they want. See, i can do ad hominems, too. Assuming you either can't refute what I said or you're not into exchanging opinions. Makes you not worth talking to
@naasfaltimakar art isn't created for others. it's created for yourself. And even if it's created as a commercial product, it's still only created for those it speaks to. You're not entitled to have art made for you exclusively.
@KirayabaOnara@greninjajoestar@SEBUTHEWORLD that is a barbarian mindset tho. that's the kinda shit somebody with deep psychological issues would say. Just do anything else than just hating people and wishing for them to suffer. Ignore the dude. You're giving him significance by making him your avatar of hatred.
@KirayabaOnara@greninjajoestar@SEBUTHEWORLD oh willingly doing atrocious things. gotcha. Kinda forgot there's actual barbarians on this site sometimes. Thanks for reminding me.
