MODERATORS
 

The admins on lemmynsfw.com have decided to allow "non-IRL loli", i.e. drawn porn involving children/teenagers. (Post: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/29633).

Irrelevant of the moral issues that this poses, such content is illegal in many countries (e.g the UK). Continuing to federate with lemmynsfw.com will put users at risk of significant legal repercussions.

Please would the admins consider defederating unless lemmynsfw change their policy.

UPDATE: The lemmynsfw admins posted an clarification here: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/29826. My original argument for defederating doesn't stand any more.

Doesn’t know the internets rule 34

Gets upset…

I know it. I have no problem with 99% of it. But if it involves children, real or not, I want nothing to do with it. I don't want users who want that on my instance. I don't want that content touching my servers.

have no reason to moderate it away unless it’s illegal where they are hosted (lolli isn’t in most countries)

It is in some, and in any case just because it might be legal doesn't mean it's okay.

just because it might be legal doesn’t mean it’s okay.

And WHO decides what's ok? This is where you are wrong. If it's legal then it's ok to have it. I don't have to like it, but just as I only browsed my own frontpage on reddit with subscribed subreddits in a few days I will have all the communities I need or want and just prowse that exclusively. What someone is posting or liking on communities I do not see is irrelvant to me, obviously, as long as it's legal.

There is NO room for moral policing here.

That's cool and all, but if one user on my instance subscribes to some pedo community that I don't block it will show up in the "All" feed of my instance. For all users.

So me, I decide. If you want an instance that allows pedo crap go find a different one.

I don't generally ban anything that's not illegal, but pedophilia and adjacent topics is one such exception.

Pedophelia IS illegal and has no place on this platform. Problem is, YOU want to decide for all of us what legal content should not be. And if you do not realize the error of that way of thinking then in my opinion you are no better than a boik burner.

All of you? You're not in my instance. I don't affect you. If you want to go look at sexual drawings of children don't join my instance.

I'm fine with that. This is an open statement that any such person should avoid my instance. You're completely free to make or join one that allows such things.

[–] JdW@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

I do not want to look at any type of nsfw content myself, but I also am not arrogant enough to lay down the law for others. You joined a federated platform, your isolisionist thinking belongs to a private forum. This is clearly not the social space for you, and I hope your type finds a nice lityle safespace somwhere to exist.

Do as you like with your instance. That's totally fine.

It is in some, and in any case just because it mount be legal doesn't mean it's okay.

Nobody needs moral police. I don't want to see it, but i just don't give a fuck unless someone is actually harmed by it. I just blocked the things i don't want to see.

And as an admin of an instance, if I don't block it, and one single user subscribes to it, it will appear on the "All" feed for all of my users.
