The Anti-Censorship DNP Pledge

Let’s be perfectly honest, the “this is my battleground and you can go elsewhere” argument is pointless. You have just as much right to make your own heavily moderated booru. Get a better argument.

I have no interest or stakes in nazi art on this site. So my reasoning for being against censorship have nothing to do with that. This site had the perfect system. Don’t like an image? Dislike it. Really don’t like it? Hide it. Hate everything about the image? Filter it. Was the image tagged incorrectly? You can even update another artists tags yourself.

Bonus points: anti-censorship has homefield advantage here. “Go make your own site” is manipulative attempt to get us to surrender the homefield, given how vast majority of pro-censorship people are not invested (because they come from Twitter and other sites) or outright actively become disinvested via takedowns.

GR8 B8 M8, or what? Do you actually mean what you’re saying? What’s acceptable to people and what isn’t changes almost constantly, no point drawing morality in here as there is essentially none.
 
But fuck it I’ll play your game.  
If they want such content then they can either go where it is more appropriate or maybe stop and think WHY it might not be a good thing.
 
Right?
 
Well if you have such a massive issue with this content, why don’t you just go to furaffinity or something and leave the rest of us who simply don’t care alone? I’ll tell you why, it’s because you’re a self-virtuous selfish twat who wants everything he likes adapted to him.
 
So no, get bent.

Point being, we as individuals can censor any content we want to on this site, we don’t need to be babied with mod oversight on what can or can’t be posted just because someone might get offended by it. Anything can offend anybody, and that’s why there are filters.

Riiight, because leaving a site isn’t infinity times easier than leaving a country? Cutting connections with people you met on the country you were raised in?
 
My God, you struck me as an idiot before but THIS. This is unprecedented, seek help.
 
This is our site just as much as your’s, and we’re going to fight for what is right.
 
Fighting?! Are you daft?! You bastards are literally pulling the plug on your own content and leaving. So good riddance!

While you are end of the day, you just trying to object to censorship.
 
But, you’re fighting this battle, over Nazi content. Even if you disagree with Nazism ect, don’t you see how that paints this argument?
 
There are better hills do die on while trying to object to censorship.

@Inucroft  
How about you actually disprove my argument. And maybe your point is… you know… wrong?!
 
If this truly were about fighting for the greater good artists would have cancelled their DNPs upon seeing the rules change, but you can clearly see it’s not about fighting nazism, it’s all about them sweet sweet virtue points on twitter. Them like and retweets.
 
This isn’t about being virtuous you dumb twat, it’s about feeling virtuous, always has been.

Oh no, how dare people do the only form of protest they can on this site!  
Not like the Anti-Censorship clique started to file DNP requests when the ban on nazi content was annonced… oh wait.
 
What argument?  
That it’s okay to have Nazi content on a site because people can turn a blind eye to it? XD
 
How about you be brave and say that without the “Anonymous” checked ;)

No, I don’t. Because today it’s Nazi content. What about tomorrow? Censorship opens a door that can’t be closed again, and what it opens to is the idea that anything and everything is open to the possibility of being banned in a moments decision, regardless of what it is. Derpibooru already has a system ten times superior to that of many other massive websites that gives users large amounts of freedom, control, and yes, the ability to censor content at their own discretion. Nothing was wrong with this site.

Pretty much, yeah. You can literally ignore it and your life will remain unchanged. I know it’s crazy but have you ever considered that the reason people are so desensitized towards this is because of idiots like you who keep crying nazi every time something offends them?

@MagpulPony  
And this is the slippery slope falicy.
 
Lets rephrase this then. WHY are you so admiment that people ought to post Nazi imagery, many of which are not satire and simply trivialises the horrors they commited?

And you would turn a blind eye to your friend right next to you getting shot?  
No you wouldn’t, meanwhile I still walk past places where you can see it was bombed.
 
 
And I mean, this is a LIERIAL NAZI horse XD
 
Still waiting for you have have the bravery to uncheck that anon box ;)

If they want such content then they can either go where it is more appropriate
 
For the record Rule #4 clearly states the following:  
“Derpibooru is extremely permissive as to what we allow on this website, which means we allow images that contain themes which some may find objectionable. To help you avoid seeing images you may not wish to see, we have a tag filtering system, which allows for hiding of images that contain specific tags.”
 
“If you see images that contain themes you do not like, you should add the appropriate tags to your filter. Do not post comments complaining about the theme of the image. “
 
So really, not only are people in fact posting what you are complaining about in the appropriate place as listed by the rules, you are simultaneously breaking a rule by complaining about the theme of the image.
 
Why is it this rule has been so completely ignored by staff since the beginning is what I’m wondering.

Stopping it early is better than waiting for a “worthy cause” because it stops a precedent from setting in. Angry mobs can’t be appeased because then they’ll keep demanding more and more, kinda like a certain political party in 20th century Europe.
