Yeah, because being guilty of reading a story without paying for it is totally comparable to pedophilia.
The solution, as I said, is simple. Don't read it. It's legal to draw what he draws in Japan, kitten, so he's breaking no laws.
Never said I had an issue with it, kitten. I'm simply letting you know that it's extremely stupid to compare illegal readers to people who promote pedophilia through their work.
If you didn't have an issue with it, you wouldn't have felt compelled to say anything, snuggles. As far as promoting something through their work there is zero scientific evidence that representation of sex, pedophilia, murder, drugs or any other vice in media acts as an actual or even implied promotion of those things. His work doesn't promote pedophilia anymore than Kentarou Miura promoted murder in Berserk. It's people who can't tell the difference between something drawn and something real that are the problem children.
I have an issue with your stupid comparison, snuggles, not the fact that the author drew pedophilic crap.
Furthermore, yes, there is in fact evidence that representation of pedophilia, murder and the likes contribute to normalise those acts because we become desensitized to them. So yes, he does promote pedophilia and if you can't understand this simple fact, you're the problem child.
You may want to come up with your own nicknames rather than simply copying mine, pet. I'll ignore your overt hostility since we're having such a lovely conversation. However, you are throwing around words like evidence to support your hypothesis. So, if you've got some evidence supported by studies those things promote pedophilia and murder I'd love to see it.
You may want to learn how to do your own research, pet. But that would be the smart thing to do so instead, you'll accuse me of not having proof or alternatively you'll pretend that you searched but nothing came up.
I'll just ignore your condescending tone since we're having such a lovely conversation. Feel free to keep throwing around words so that you can convince yourself that you're intellectually superior.
Well, when I stated there was zero evidence I'd done my research, love cakes, and couldn't find anything. Claiming there is proof is easier to prove that claiming there is none. How can I prove something doesn't exist? What empirical evidence can I provide for the absence of something? You see the conundrum, I hope.
As far as my tone, being able to discern tone during a 2d discussion is, truly, an impressive feat which I have not mastered. But, then again, there's that hostility again which makes our conversations so spicy!
I have never claimed to be intellectually superior and if you have an inferiority complex that's, really, not my fault.
Pro-tip: if you don't want to sound condescending, don't call strangers "kitten".
It's common sense but it's clearly something you lack given the absurdity of all your comments.
Enjoy having the last word.
Thank you so much for giving me a pro tip! I kind of wish you'd given me that proof you claimed but I'll take the kind pro tip instead! Wait! I have a pro tip, too (although I'm not nearly the pro you are, plainly, since I wasn't able to prove the absence of something) My pro tip for you is: if you are going to be sarcastic you shouldn't expect people to respond kindly, kitten. <3
psychologists disagee?
There's a lot of moral handwringing from people reading this illegally. I don't care for the author's other works, so I assuage my moral outrage by not reading them.
