@BrandonRStreams They decided to stop using Tenor as the GIF search, God knows why. Thankfully if you have an Android phone the keyboard still uses Tenor, but Twitter uses Giphy now which sucks.
It sucks cause it's constant troubleshooting, constant figuring something out that takes precious time away from the only thing I wanna fucking do. It comes with benefits, but stop pretending it's smooth sailing. It just fucking isn't.
@Rorinokokoro_2@RealUicon That's the problem. If it attracts antis, you're fucked. Doesn't matter if you broke the rules, they can spam report innocent posts and get them removed anyway. Best thing is to delete stuff once it leaves your target audience tbh...
O believe me, I do. I think you need to look harder, because a handful of predatory idiots doesn't invalidate the other 99% of the community that recognizes the difference between hyper-realistic art and AI trained on CSAM vs. a stylized fictional character. Realistic content is actually illegal, CSAM laws cover real content as well as fictional content that looks real.
@Kalbboi@ShinoAlter14@Limitless649208 That's cause they assume you're smart enough to understand that the discussion is about anime girls and not hyper realistic drawings or AI. There's a reason you rarely see anyone thirsting for Ellie from TLoU and it's virtually always about cartoons.
@Kalbboi@ShinoAlter14@Limitless649208 Except that has literally always been the argument. Reducing it to "it's just a drawing" ignores the existence of realistic drawings that are completely different and absolutely pedophilic.
Pedophilia is a crime due to a lack of consent, not because of some mystical forbidden body proportions. If a 12yo girl had D cups and an hourglass figure, it would still be immoral to have sexual thoughts about her. Conversely, a 25yo woman could be flat as a board with zero curves and it would be perfectly acceptable to feel attracted to her.
@Kalbboi@ShinoAlter14@Limitless649208 Nah cause this is getting into uncanny valley territory. The closer a character looks to a real person, the uglier it becomes.
@InvertedAxe@ShinoAlter14 And Mickey represents a mouse, but obviously he's not the same as a real mouse. What a cartoon represents is meaningless when the topic of discussion is the end result and not the inspiration.
