ABDL and Age Regression Suspension/Bans Drama

Hello Everyone!
It sure has been a while, hasn't it?
I hope you have been well, because I haven't. That is not what this post is about. Do follow my Telegram Channel for more frequent posts though: https://t.me/LucidCreationsMedia
So by now I am sure many of you are aware of the the recent ban waves. This is not going to be another "where to find me" and "here are my socials" post.
I am actually going to take a play from
zenfetcher and the Journal they made.
I am not going anywhere. I am not removing any of my art. I am going to stand my ground and will stay here until I get banned. Running and hiding will not do us any good. It never has.
I am very happy to see the overwhelming support from the non-ABDL allies about this and the recent hate bandwagon on Twitter/X. It's very refreshing and I hope it can help to show the vocal minority of mostly puriteens that we are not going anywhere. Especially if we stand our ground as long as possible.
For my artist followers I cannot control where you decide to go, but this is my opinion regarding possible alternatives:
- InkBunny is not it. I refuse to use or support a website that openly allows CSEM/CSAM (cub porn). You will lose me and likely many others for using this site as your primary gallery. Fuck the blacklists. I refuse. Full stop.
- Twitter; fuck the MAGA Nazis. I recently uninstalled it on my phone and I am going on the site in a browser less and less. I think I am going to close my account soon.
- BlueSky is fine, at least on there you can easily search for tags on a profile page to filter out unrelated posts and replies.
- SoFurry appears to be reworking and completely revamp their site. That could be a viable alternative if they allow us there. I might make an account there to check it out.
- DeviantArt; FUCK AI. 1 basic AI prompt uses 10 times as much energy as a typical search engine query. A GPT-4 100 word response uses THREE WHOLE BOTTLES OF WATER. Nearby residents of AI datacenters are seeing an increase in power and water bills. No. I am trying to avoid using sites and services that either allow AI or implement and pushes AI as a core part of their services. This also goes for Twitter too btw. Other than the AI, the site hasn't been that good for furry and ABDL artists anyway. There are no reliable ways to search and discover new furry and ABDL artists. I hear their search sucks these days and at that point you are relying on artists to tag their art properly and hoping AI and low effort content isn't muddying up the results.
- e621; It's more of a post/image board than an art gallery. If they make an effort to give people proper profiles with a gallery and such then maybe. Also the mods allow questionable and offensive tags on transgender art and whatnot. I love how thorough the tagging and blacklist system is, but it's just not a good place to do much other than search for and post art.
With that out of the way I want to share my experience being so open with my ABDL interests and incorporating it within my lifestyle. To put it simply. MOST PEOPLE DO NOT CARE. Seriously. There will be a hater here or there in some comment section or random Telegram chat or Discord server. The mods will usually take care of it because they usually know ABDL is harmless and the hate we receive is unjust. I will get the occasional person asking to know more and I am happy to educate them. Some people do keep a distance because even if they aren't comfortable with it they won't take that to a level of hatred and abuse people online over it.
That is all fine and dandy. People talk about the downsides all the time. What about the upsides? Are there any?
Well for me personally it is nice not to have to worry about what I say around 95% of my friends. It is freeing to simply just be me. I think it's great for my mental and emotional health. If I had to hide this part of me I feel I would be struggling much more right now with everything going on. The biggest thing to me is the silent, but positive impact I have on my friend and the community. About 4 years ago one of my friend told me I helped them embrace their ABDL interest by seeing how happy and free being so open about it made me. That is what allows me to let the words and abuse roll off my back. Knowing that I am helping others in ways I may never see or know. Even if it doesn't encourage them to embrace ABDL, it could help in other ways about other taboo topics and interests. Also diapers are just great.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I highly recommend Itaku as an alternative art site. There are no ABDL bans, it disallows CP and AI, and it's not strictly a furry site.
