We need to have this conversation.
2 years ago
Y'all I'm mfing tired
I think we as an entire community need to start an open honest conversation in regards to everything going on because to be frank, everything has gotten ridiculous.
To start this off: The normalization of paraphilias is NOT ok. The artwork that normalizes and entices people to paraphilias is NOT ok. People who support paraphilias and art depicting such are not allowed to co-op my words. The following is harmful and has caused numerous suffering to those affected by paraphilias. (zoophs and pedos DNFI)
AT THE SAME TIME: people have been using animals as a metaphor for the human condition and as a symbolism for trauma, love, fear, hope, etc. We as a human species has used animals for symbolic reasoning for literally thousands of years. This has been nothing new. We've been doing this for so long.
People also have been making art for thousands of years that's meant to make people uncomfortable to address real human experiences + addressing real life issues.
And that's the thing: there's a huge difference between art that has symbolic analogies to real human experiences/issues and literal porn that endorses paraphilias.
People who are attacking artwork that has literal symbolism and meant to address the human condition and real life issues, and claim it's porn, claim it's something insidious. I want you to ask yourselves this particular question.
What is this doing to actively stop the abuse inflicted upon animals and children that are harmed by paraphilias?
Because let me brutally fucking honest here: This does absolutely jack shit. All it serves is a literal distraction. A distraction that allows actual zoophiles and pedophiles as well as those literally drawing art catering to those crowds to continue to get away with harming those who cannot fight back or consent, and by proxy continuing the cycle. All this hullabaloo going on is performative activism at its worst.
All this shit is doing is making people become more afraid to create art that relates to the human condition and art is designed to be uncomfortable in order to demonstrate/bring awareness to actual issues. All because people do NOT have the comprehension to learn the difference between a symbolic art with artistic analogies to something that's just tasteless porn.
Your heart may be in the right place. But your actions only serve to distract from the actual animal abusers/zoophs openly tweeting about abusing their animals in real time and people drawing art MEANT to attract zoophiles and those engaged in disgusting paraphilias. We need to address those instead of whatever the fuck is going on.
Assuming everything is sexual and insidious in nature is a very dangerous game and we need to address this as this is a fucking rampant issue. We need to start doing better at rooting out the literal scum of the earth but learn to have better reading comprehension and a better understanding at art and symbolism when it comes to shit like this.
