except im not falsely accusing them, drawn child porn is still child porn
Not once have I seen anything an anti claimed to be “child porn” that actually fit that description. I have also never seen an anti on this site whose concerns about alleged “pedophilia” don’t strictly begin and end with cartoon shipping (showing that you don’t truly care about the issue of pedophilia, and are only concerned with others having different fictional ships, which is something that anyone can completely avoid with the default tools given to you on this site).
When Samurai Jack ended up with Aku’s daughter, people called it “pedophilia”, in spite of both characters being fully-grown adults. Why? Because Jack was mentally decades older due to the time portal messing with the aging process, even though he looked exactly the same.
People who ship Shiro and Keith from Voltron continue to be accused of being “pedophiles”, even though both characters are–again–canonically adults.
When people drew pin-up art of the Wendy’s mascot, people called it “pedophilia”, even though artists were clearly drawing a fully-grown adult woman, which the REAL Wendy Thomas IS.
I have even seen antis on this site refer to an 18-year-old dating a 16-year-old as “pedophilia”, even though both could be students at the same school, and even though such a couple is 100% fully legal (16 is the legal age for consent in America, but if you went beyond your own ethnocentric views on this issue, you’d find that other countries have it as low as 14, with younger teens given many more responsibilities. In Germany, 16-year-olds are even able to vote).
What you are referring to as “drawn child porn” is people making fan art of fictional characters that are usually at least in their teens. The overwhelming majority of the people creating this fan art are young women and teenage girls that are using fan works as a means to explore their sexuality in a way that they don’t feel physically pressured, threatened, or intimidated.
Allow me to give you the real definition–from
18 U.S. Code § 2256–when we’re talking about artwork:
“The
term “indistinguishable” used with respect to a depiction, means
virtually indistinguishable, in that the depiction is such that an
ordinary person viewing the depiction would conclude that the depiction
is of an actual minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct. This definition does not apply to depictions that are drawings, cartoons, sculptures, or paintings depicting minors or adults.”
And don’t bother citing the PROTECT Act, because that was deemed unconstitutional on a federal level as of United States vs Handley, which is the
ONLY CASE THAT WE KNOW OF that was based completely on drawn material of fictional characters, without any discovery of other types of material in the possession of the accused:
“Last year, the Supreme Court declared unconstitutional a
federal law that criminalized the possession of “virtual” child pornography,
i.e., materials whose production may not have involved the use of real
children.”
You are a 15-year-old that hasn’t been on the internet for very long. People have been sexualizing cartoons in general for nearly a century, and few people have had any issue with this, due to cartoons typically having proportions that don’t resemble those of actual human beings. Especially when we’re talking about anime or anime-influenced artwork, even art books on drawing manga talk about the interchangeability of faces between age, and even gender.
I found your blog because someone screencapped you falsely accusing them of pedophilia, and it came across my dash. For the record, staff WILL delete entire accounts over false accusations of pedophilia, as is what happened to “bipolaramyrose" (the url has since been claimed by some kind of foreign bot).
TL;DR: You are abusing the term “pedophilia” where it does not apply. When you misuse serious terms in this way, it actually HARMS REAL VICTIMS (which include myself, by the way) by making it harder for their legitimate claims to be taken seriously.
The people you’re falsely accusing have a right to know where and what this “list” is that you’ve allegedly added them to (I’m going to guess that this is the site you used). Especially if it goes beyond tumblr, you could very well face serious legal repercussions for your actions. I can assure you that being a minor will NOT excuse you from facing those consequences.
