The Anti-Censorship DNP Pledge

@soundtea

Honestly feels like there's going to be a kneejerk DNP divide no matter which way the site goes. Really hate to see so much division and having even more sites to have to keep track of.

Yeah, sadly no one wins anymore. If they ban aryanne, people will leave, if they revert the changed, SJW will throw a tantrum and will leave. There are a few really outspoken leftists that I'd rather see run over than having to see them post yet another woke mouthpiece, but I wouldn't want them to leave either.


On a side note, what is this pillowfort I keep seeing posted? Yes, i life under a rock

@windburst
From what I can understand its a blog site meant as an alternative to tumblr and the like.

Basically this; however my first impression of it was severely stained due to it using javascript for literally everything. Right now (and for over a year) it's in "beta", you get three invites a week to share and can get more by donating. It is promised to go open and free after release, but, well, you know how that typically goes so my trust is low.

I wonder why everyone is suddenly very concerned about censorship when it comes to nazi content but has been totally fine with the rest of the ToS when it comes to other art that isn't allowed such as anthro or humanised foalcon art. Really makes you wonder where this whole outrage is actually coming from.

@Background Pony #0C7C
Because its literally fucking illegal where the servers are hosted and would likely land the admins in jail. This has been known for quite a while now.

@soundtea
That's bait.

anthro is allowed and has over 229k images. Now if you mean anthro foalcon, pretty sure certain states in the usa ban that stuff and you can go to jail for it (don't quote me on that, not an american), same thing for humanised. Seen enough stories of people getting partyvanned for lolicon images. Some people even for simpsons porn of lisa or other weird stuff. Think the mods simply got no other choise but to remove that on sight.

@Barhandar
The servers are legit hosted in France. Heaven forbid the admins would like to avoid possible actual legal issues or getting tossed into jail + having the site erased. If you feel that strongly about it, go to a place like Inkbunny that's hosted in a place that wont possibly toss you in jail over it.

@windburst
It's a bit late. They've broke user trust time and time again. This is just the straw that broke the camels back. This isn't the first time they've pulled big double standards with their rules. Breaking rule 0 and being absolutely rude to artists and deleting their comments afterwards has always been a thing. I've kept quiet during the whole Coinpo drama and stuck to posting work and leaving but it's always left a bad taste in my mouth and it still does a couple years later.

They're going to have to do a whole lot at this point to bring back user trust. It's not going to be easy for them. Even if they apologized and Let Ary back people would still leave for the alt sites getting polished up because of that. Call me optimistic but maybe it'll help the moderation team shape up into a more respectable working unit in the long run now that their monopoly on horse pussy is being threatened.

Now that more and more articles are popping up about this site, more people are probably going to target this. First starts bitching about nazi shit and they want it all gone, they notice how easy it was and then they come for shit like foalcon because people see it both pedo and zoophile shit even though they are just drawings and then comes all pony and horse drawings because its all zoophile shit according to them.

I wouldnt be surprised if this happens, tumblr already banned pretty much all the porn, they had a real cp problem but instead of just banning that shit, they banned everything. Exhentai almost got shut down forever because they had loli content on their site and the country that site was hosted on made it illegal suddenly if i remember right, thank god they found another country. Patreon banned all anime drawings because its all pedo shit according to them, soon probably comes MLP porn too because of them going after those who made Besti and of course the reason was because they see it as literally zoophilia. Only thing thats fine is a wolf head on a human body it seems. Cant forget Sony either censoring all weeb games that come from Japan because anime tiddies bad and pedo shit but realistic looking gore and underage looking characters having sex In games like The Last of Us 2 is totally fine, no problem at all. Then again, i have heard Japan has it opposite way.

I just want this censorship shit to end already but i know it wont unless people grow some spines. Shit is gonna get worse and worse every day. Why even have hide the image button and filters if people dont use them. Filters werent enough, hide button wasnt enough and now we are here. Nothing will ever be enough for these commie and SJW fucks, especially those from Twatter, so why even bother?

no matter what you do they going to find a way to those website and censore those place to

@Background Pony #0C7C
Because its illegal, simple as. Otherwise I would say "whatever" too and be against banning it, even if I never want to see that shit, because its cartoon drawings and artists should be allowed to draw whatever they want. Its not real. None of this is real. Drawing someone get murdered doesnt constitute murder, etc.

@soundtea

Lesser than you think. If the divide was huge, Aryanne pics wouldn't be overwhelmingly positive in score.

@Background Pony #0C7C
Administration was transparent regarding that rule. Basically, AFAIR, they got warnings from the government about young too-close-to-human pics, and that's apparently illegal in EU. Because they didn't want to guess government's minds of which anthro pics are "too close" and which anthro is not "too close" and get too many warnings, they just banned all anthro fillies/colts. They actually explained it and reasons were understandable, they didn't take moral high ground. In this case, things are non-transparent, reasons aren't understandable and reeks of agenda. Not to mention every forbiddent content rule is added on top of previous forbidden content, camel's back gotta break at some point.

@Background Pony #6FF9
Considering some of the staff here got outed a few weeks ago as trying to setup a general furry booru literally named Furbooru, it wouldn't be surprising to wake up to derpi being merged into it with a general vibe of "haha fuck you bronies are all furries now we speak the word of god" later this year

@soundtea
I know, but that's (the post you were responding to, not yours) still bait.

@Background Pony #B7DB
foal con is wrong no matter what you say stop living in you delusional universe

@Rhorse

Can anyone give me a clue about what this “Coinpo drama” is? I must have been living under a rock at the time, because I’m not familiar with it.

@Background Pony #B7DB
This dude gets it, any sort of -con, lolicon, foalcon etc. is pedophillia and shouldn't be allowed anywhere.

@Background Pony #8710

how about blatant censorship. they have an obvious anti-white agenda, and are using censorship to promote that. people are understandably sick of this garbage.

That's quite the perspective you have there.

"Hey guys, so this thing we've had to deal with arguments and complaints over for years now has reached the point where it's started to involve significant real world events and problems, so we're no longer allowing it to be uploaded on this site."
"Ah ha! Obvious anti-white agenda!"


@Background Pony #6FF9

Why even have hide the image button and filters if people dont use them.

Beats me. Maybe you should ask the people who feel the need to incessantly come here and regurgitate their views on sex and gender every time someone adds so much as a pride flag to their artwork.


@FrecklesFanatic

its cartoon drawings and artists should be allowed to draw whatever they want. Its not real. None of this is real. Drawing someone get murdered doesnt constitute murder, etc.

The fact that it's not real doesn't stop some people from having very real and occasionally threatening reactions to it, though. just talk to the people who worked on the actual show and got constantly harassed or sent death threats over decisions they made.


@Background Pony #E5FA

Considering some of the staff here got outed a few weeks ago as trying to setup a general furry booru literally named Furbooru

Oh no, the horror, a site for pictures of anthropomorphic animal characters. Such a terrible thing.

Did they ever finish it? I'd totally go there to check it out.

@Background Pony #0C7C
People opposed and do oppose bans on foalcon as well. The problem here is that banning foalcon is legally necessary for this website while bans on cute Aryanne pictures are not. Worse is the fact that its them listening to the woke mob which will inevitably demand more and more censorship.

Literal Who reporting in with my DNP pledge. I fully support Derpibooru's right to decide what is hosted on their site. When additional material is banned, please handle it better than you handled this incident. It's fine if you ban Aryanne, or abuse, or behaving like a cat. Please consider the actions of your admins and moderators and how the situation was improved or worsened by those actions.

@Background Pony #A6DD
Those people were unhinged, drawings or not, and need help. If it wasnt MLP, they would have attached in a similar thing to something else. Maybe religion, maybe a sportsteam, etc.
Again, this is the "video games cause violence" argument. They dont. The same way a picture of aryane doesnt make you gas jews, or porn makes you rape someone.
If you loose yourself completely in the world of such a thing, its because there already had been unsolved real problems.
The Catcher in the Rye made nobody into a murderer either. Humans channeling their actual issues through their escapism is nothing new.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nika_riots
As the article mentions, the wagon race was just a outlet, not the issue. None of them became murderous rioters because WHOAH WAGON GO ZOOM, GREEN MAKE ME KILL OTHERS VROM VROM.
And even if you would argue that if pictures callinf for actuall violence on actuall IRL groups could do such a thing, they had been banned anyways before all this, and everyone was okay with that.

@Background Pony #3591

A lot of People say the same thing about pony and horse drawings, how its all weird, disgusting and wrong and should be banned. Funny thing is that its still legal In Finland to fuck animals as long as no harm is done but still havent heard any news about some guy sneaking to someones farm and bang a horse. You would except at least some news about it but no, nothing. Even more funny is the fact that according to Pornhub Finland was one of the top countries that watched shit tons of MLP porn. I think it was like 107%. Its why its hard for me to believe or take serious those who keep saying that fiction is harmful and affects reality when it clearly doesnt. People here knows that its wrong and have been wanting to ban it but then always gets forgotten. Meanwhile Britannia seems to have shit tons of real cp and other disgusting cases even though they have banned loli. Japan doesnt have almost any crimes at all and still allow loli.

@Background Pony #A6DD

Difference is that we didnt want that shit banned or censored. If you are going to ban swastikas and other nazi shit, then ban hammer and sickle too and other commie shit
What's also funny is the fact that Finnish air forces still uses swastikas and have said that they arent going to remove them.
