FA's Hypocrisy
15 years ago
Still selling CDs of pictures from Yosemite National Park! $15 with free worldwide shipping! See my gallery for samples. ^^
I posted a picture of a burning bible to symbolize the destruction theat religion is causing. It's continuously being removed, citing rules that it DOES NOT violate. If it's violating the "spirit," change the wording so it matches the "spirit." Specifically prohibit any submissions containing religious material.
But each and every picture of Muhammad is still up. That is DEEPLY offensive to Muslims, but yet my image is the only one being removed.
Yes, I know they're the ones in power. Yes, I know they could just ban me. Do I care? No. I'm making my stand whether they like it or not.
Either take down each and every Muhammad drawing on the same grounds you're pulling mine, or shut the fuck up. I will remove it myself once the Muhammad drawings are pulled.
Update: After a week's suspension "For deliberately violating aup and disobeying an admin," it seems my efforts to point out their outright hypocrisy have done nothing. I still maintian I have not violated the AUP, since the words of the AUP state intent to harass or offend. My intent was to spark intellectual thought. Apparently, the admins are incapable of this. Yes, I disobeyed them, only because they are idiots and needed someone to point it out to them.

You're saying that others are being douches so that gives you the right to be one too. This is a complete and utter logic fail. Even if it is to make a point... it's still pretty fail.
I GAVE you a way to have the discussion/impact you're apparently looking for without uploading it as a submission to the site. That you continue to do so is very indicative of your true motives in this matter.
Your image has been judged to be offensive and a violation. Period. Either accept this and find other, acceptable ways to provoke the thoughts and reactions you claim to seek or don't. However continuing to defy the AUP and admin alike (and an admin who tried to work with you to boot) will eventually earn you the ban you profess to care nothing about.
In short, your attitude of martyrdom is clear. Quit it and play by the rules.
I think you should quit this fight, Hermie. Not only do furries, as a generally leftist (or far leftist) group understand the dangers of religion, but this squabble of you v. the admin is actually a worse buzzkill than the fact that it's been removed, censured, censored.
Besides, what of the Christian and/or furries out there? This is an extremely violent image to make a point that's, as I said, been a rather obvious debate. You're being insensitive to their beliefs, no matter how wrong you may think they are. They, and conversely, you, have the right to be as brazenly wrong as you want to be.
When you step on someone else's toes about it, then it's you who has crossed the line. There's enough negativity and anger in the world. Why not put your efforts towards something positive instead? Build instead of destroy.
