Seeing all of this unfold has been utterly heartbreaking. We've watched in real time over the past few years as harassers have falsely accused an artist of being a dangerous predator, all over drawings & ships of fictional characters, ultimately destroying this artist's life.
Everytime I encounter a "this guy is a pedo incestuous racist groomer" comment I look inside just in case and every single time it's about fucking anime.
You guys already have a pedo incestuous racist groomer as president, focus on that
@koifszh@MonikaCinnyRoll@VAMPiRIC_DYKE genai photorealistic csam (which is created by sampling real children and then making those images explicit) is not the same battle as pretending lοli is bad
@Kacper_nat_soc@sushilaps@himayausuck there is a modern community that belongs equally to both of those evils, and the current owner of this site is aligned with that political party
@TeriuwuTeri@NoriMagistrate@FeristalJ To be clear, I'm asking you to recognize when a thing is CSAM (has victims, it's in the name) or not. I've heard the modders in question have engaged with minors or CSAM, but you do a disservice to victims when you try to lump in a subset of hentai with a felony against humanity.
@DinksterL@alipheesethe16 @Hypnotiqiv @RsholR@Dexerto yeah, the same way "anti-semitic" and "anti-zionist" are erroneously equated
or "pro-Palestine" with "pro-Hamas"
It has nothing to do with wanting to make Trump look bad.
1. Many of aren't even from the US
2. The best way to ensure WWIII happens is to appease dictators. Appeasing dictators was how WWII happened.
3. If you're cheering for the dictatorship attacking a democracy *you are on the wrong side*.
People ARE going to use genAI to create fake videos displaying lgbt+ people and POC in a bad light. It's already happening. And right-wingers are already stupid and/or straight-up liars who won't admit when something is obviously fake. This is going to get so bad.
