I have no idea what's happening in this comment section, but it looks like the Mods will have an idea if it gets spicy

What a nice wholesome drawing, I’m sure the artist has completely non-shitty political views!

?????????????????

Earnestly, who the fuck cares?

Can't we all just be friends and not start flame wars in the comment section?
Please and thank you.

If you find that Carpetwurm's views get in the way of your enjoyment of their artwork, I would advice you to blacklist them.

I'll be blacklisting, but to give context for the denizens of E6: Carpetwurm, following purging all of their m/m explicit content, has since made several homophobic remarks, used a slur in their bio, and has been spending their time on Twitter rapidly endorsing several instances of far right-wing and neo-nazi content, including but not limited to racism, misogyny, antisemitism, and genocidal rhetoric.

Mr. Carpetwurm, your art is cute and floofy and comfy and I love it

Inshallah, I will show you the meaning of Nazism, and you will never commit such an error again.

Man, what a badass. /j

After my day long research, I can attest this is legit. I will blacklist as well.

It boggles my mind that people base their personality off hating others for something harmless like loving the same sex. It is not human nature to hate others, despite popular belief: it is a choice

a *poor choice*, at that.

?????????????????

Your politics ARE shit. It's just that you're masking them with this cute and wholesome facade like that's all there is to it instead of making drawings celebrating shit like black and transgender people getting shot and suiciding, as your likes on the bird site show.

Goddamn it.
What did I just say about not starting a flame war here?

Go fight it out on Twitter.

After looking into this whole thing, I'm gonna say this: it's one thing to no longer wish to be horny and want to move on (as much as it sucks to have the art removed from a convenient general source), like, I can understand such a decision. There is a point to be made about the oversexualized nature of furries a lot of the time. You're free to draw your "Wholesome American Lumberjack with a Loving Wife" fantasy. I'm just baffled for the other reasons behind the radical shift which aren't so innocent and the (supposed) reason why it happened.

Also mfw I discovered the whole drama via Twitter's "For You" tab about a half hour ago and it's my first exposure to this artist, talk about cosmically bad timing. That thing barely works, constantly showing repeating tweets from people I already follow, and the few times it doesn't, it decides to show me that. 💀

The only people taken in by your rhetoric are other leftists. Everyone else thinks your take is dogshit.

"Everyone who disagrees with me is a leftist"

im not sure what you're on. I looked at their Twitter, and it's just a guy trying to get away from the art they don't want to do anymore

i agree

lmao even admins are getting downvoted to hell

I agree though, if you can't enjoy art without trying to remind everyone of the artist's political compass, there are better places than e621 to be. Act like adults and blacklist.

Smartest comment I happened to stumble upon in this comment section.

Anyway, this is some incredibly well-made art. There is a lot of detail put in the backgrounds especially, and I always dig it when artists do that. Keep it up!

I like carpet for his art style. e621 is an art site first and foremost with the social side of it being largely secondary. We came here to enjoy and appreciate someone's work, not argue over who's beliefs are the stupidest.

Let's be real here, porn is nice but we all came here for the drama lol

Almost everyone I've asked (outside e6, to be clear) says they only use e6 to look up porn. Sometimes we use it for safe fanart. So we're here for the art. Maybe you're more into the community here but with the way the site layout is organized I don't really see it as being a priority.

Regardless the comments are meant to be a place where we talk about an art piece, not shit on eachother over personal matters.

You can have alts, but please don't use them to buffer votes. In either direction.

Just got a mail telling me my alt had been banned so I went and checked what it was about.
There has been a misunderstanding here, we just share the same profile picture and saladshooter made a joke about it. This guy is not me.

I don't know if you guys on the admin side have access to anything to prove we're two different persons, but if you do please check it and unban the poor fella :(

It's been 5 days, I still haven't got an answer and the guy's still banned over a joke.
I'm really starting to question the efficiency of one particular admin.

You should have sent me a message. That would have been much more efficient than hoping I circle back to one comment section when there are 20 more on fire every day.

I have answered your question here.

I think Rush123 was just trying to be funny in a sarcastic way. :(
Came here from looking at the forum post mentioned in Dash's last reply.

I apologise

- Not blacklisting silently
- Harassment/defamation
- Trolling
- Posted directly after staff explicitly asked people to stop

I'm seeing a lot of people getting warnings for their messages before and after this, so why does this get a pass?

I must ask
What do you mean by this
Like, when you say you'll showing the meaning, you should see where I'm going with this
