Shota comix forbiden - The infamous Rule (The rule number 7 in 8muses and F95)

[Rancioman]

Yesterday I made my first post in the forum thread related to the work of the author known as Daval3d. The post was deleted because it was not related to the topic of that forum thread.
In the comment I talked about the problem with comics that contain shota. Comics that this and many other authors publish with this content because they SELL well because people are interested in reading them, but like in almost the entire Western world, they are prohibited.
I didn't post a comic that contains shota, not even an single image. I only made a comment about shota in a forum thread that refers to an author who writes comics that contain shota, so in my humble opinion it has everything to do with the author's work.
Sad beginning for a new discussion forum in which not only is it prohibited to publish comics with shota content but it also seems that the mere mention of the word and therefore discussion on the subject is prohibited. There is no worse censorship than self-censorship.
Next I'm going to repost my original comment deleted yesterday, now on this off-topic thread:

"I don't understand what the problem is with the shotacon in the comics. If incest is okay, why isn't shota? I repeat that I'm talking about comics not real porn. If the answer is " because is wrong", then incest would be wrong too, right? With that criterion, Pablo Picasso's "Guernica" should also be prohibited because war is wrong.
Art is art, comics are an art form. I never understood the existence of the infamous rule number 7 (which existed in 8muses; which exists in f95 and apparently also here) It's much more terrible and immoral that African and Palestinian children die every day, real children (flesh and blood people) and no one seems to care about it, so I would like someone to explain to me why the issue with comics is so serious.
In fact on F95 there is an entire thread dedicated to an author called "Keeper" who makes guro comics and in each of his comics women are raped and murdered. Apparently these types of comics are NOT prohibited in F95, which is unfortunate if what they intend is to be "politically correct." I haven't seen any women complain about that either..."

I am very interested in knowing the opinion of the rest of the forum participants because I honestly believe that this topic deserves to be discussed no matter how much the corporate behavior of the moderators of this and other discussion forums try to make it invisible.

I get you but you know as well as I do that businesses are controlled by the social climate of the day. Some politicians or political wannabes in Ausrtalia, had to find a subject to campaign about, do a little digging (quite possibly from something that they explored in the past), and then decide to run with it. Rake for example, in the US, in Florida, there is a politician running under a conservative banner. He and his wife are railing about the immorality of liberals, particularly against the LGBT community. Now there's a story, with evidence and a witness, that the politician and his wife were engaged in a 3-some with another woman! That's unfortunately how it works.
When a big stink is made about a subject that's sensitive, places like this and other sites do damage control so as not to get caught up in the maelstrom. Again it is what it is,
What bothers me, as you pointed out, and I'm not trying to point anyone out, but I've recently explored "guro" and I find it to be quite disturbing.. The things for me is 1) you have silly, airheaded Western females labeling men that they don't agree with "misogynists" without knowing what the word means. 2) the fact that the MCs are supposedly powerful female superheroines and are, not only supremely overmatched but seldom, if ever receive any reinforcement, male or otherwise, and is brutally and graphically tortured, dismembered, and slaughtered. IMO, an artist and anyone who commissions for such works, are true misogynists. YET, there's been No outcry about it by feminists or women's groups, ANYWHERE, EVER!!!
Tbh, and it's been said thousands of times, their gripes are not about equality, women's rights, or a safe society for women but more about having equal power to men.
There's not much that you can do or say about the current climate. It is what it is. The only thing that you can do is weather the storm.

I very much appreciate your opinion. I hope it's the first of many because I'm convinced that the different points of view on the same issue is what enriches the discussion on the subject.

I agree with all you said, Rancioman. But if this new forum becomes known for realistic Cheese Pizza, it will go the way of the old 8muses forum, and get deleted. The moderators have to walk a very fine line. And they are only human.
