with that said, artwork always holds meaning and implication or has impact on the viewer. im going to wonder WHY someone is drawing "problematic" things because artwork is never made mindlessly. i am someone with complex PTSD and drawing sad or tragic things help me express my deep personal mental anguish. of course nobody needs a deep personal reason for liking dark fiction, people can also like it for the same reason they like roller coasters. its a dangerous thing in a controlled setting and its a weirdly soothing thing.
but why draw fetish content of people of this ethnicity specifically? why draw fetish content of disabled people being abused specifically? of course maybe there's an understandable, non-offensive reason but these kinds of people exist in real life, and they notice that there is fetish content specifically about them. and they wonder why.
>but why draw fetish content of people of this ethnicity specifically? why draw fetish content of disabled people being abused specifically?
honestly such a good question, if I could I would be interested to know why someone can even get into it, usually I can try and try to understand other things even if they're really bad without condoning it, not this one though. but I think that a basic explanation would be that this is raping one of the most vulnerable beings on this planet, especially when it comes to mute/physical disabilities. it's the interest in taking advantage of someone who literally cannot fight back no matter how much they'd want it, which is disgusting. but again I really want to hear what a person had to go through to be into this and even gaslight themselves into thinking that there is nothing wrong with being into this kind of content, cause I really cannot imagine why/how someone could do that.

tbf I imagine that most disabled people don't come across this content easily, I think that you have to go out of your way to for search it. I've seen a lot of things out there but barely anything about disabled people, but I wouldn't really know how a disabled person would feel if they come across this content. the closest thing I can really get angry about personally from my own life experience is the sexualization of mental disabilities (which is becoming somewhat popular at an alarming rate...) since I don't have any physical ones.
There is a saying in kink communities to "keep it safe, sane, and consensual" but to me turning amputees into a fetish violates the "sane" part. I looked up how amputees feel about this fetish and they are all painfully aware of it clearly don't appreciate it.
I'm not by any means advocating for full censorship of uncomfortable things, I just don't like how common these strange fetishes are in furry community.
