April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

Nightdancer
MemberAnd i thought it is just a drawing ^^
Hot Wet Lucario
Membergood art. but bad, very bad.
Nightdancer
MemberI can divide fiction and reality pretty fine. I am not the one that tries to transfer this drawing into reality here, it is you. Actual children are pretty gross btw.

MemberIf jerking to fictional cub art make you a pedophile, then why do you play violent video games ? Doesn't that make you a real life murdered ? A psychopath ? Someone who need to be secluded into a padded room for the rest of your life ?
If you do not like something, use the blocklist. Tag the keywords you do not wish to see.
And lastly, I am sorry if one out of the millions people into that niche ended up being someone who applied that logic to actual children. Because that person have actual mental issues does not mean everyone else art.
Taking your example, if someone shoot people after playing violent video game, it's not the video game to blame, that kid already had mental troubles to begin with.
We are human, not animal, 99.9% of us know where to draw the line.

MemberI’m not saying we’re pedophiles, I’m saying to be mindful of the fact that this stuff is in the same ballpark as child porn. If you can’t understand why that is related to drawings of sexualized children and why you should keep that fact in the back of your mind, you would be exactly the kind of person trying to rationalize and trick themselves into thinking there’s nothing remotely questionable about it. It is not innately wrong. It is next to something innately wrong and you should just keep that in mind, because people do drift, especially given enough time and fixation. Even .1% of billions of people is quite a large number, and very few people who eventually do cross some line start out immediately willing to cross that line.
And seriously, fuzzy wolf, what about ‘I like loli stuff a lot’ makes it sound like I want to blacklist this? Do you need to go through my favorites or something to understand I like this sort of thing in general?
tl;dr - child porn = bad. Loli/cub/drawn porn = okay. Loli/cub/drawn porn =/= child porn. But remember that they’re related enough to be mindful of it. And all this started because I made a joke about a joke.
Morice
MemberI have to correct you there. Per definition we are animals.
Humans count as animals. But yeah most of us know where to draw the line.
Spazzy
MemberOh boy, I only came here to read the comments.
RandoBro
MemberMindful about what? That one is real and bad and the other isn't? Because everyone here seems to already be on the same page about it so I don't even know why you're bringing it up.
Desmo
MemberHow can someone not wake up from this? Wait...she got drugged didn't she?! That's just bad parenting!
SenaFox
MemberSame here
SenaFox
MemberThe jizz is landing on fur not bare skin so it isn't too suprising she isn't feeling it
BlueDingo
MemberReally? That's the part that makes this bad parenting?

MemberJust don't make a comment about the parents, or you might get permabanned without a single warning.

MemberOkay-

What happened to "this stuff is in the same ballpark as child porn" if "Loli/cub/drawn porn =/= child porn"?
