DA and "Toxic" users

[tickle gamer]

Hi All! Just found this on DA: https://www.deviantart.com/agentalchemistcookie/art/Bria-D-s-I-don-t-like-this-fetish-meme-840462728

Apparently, according to this person, we would be considered "Toxic" users. Now. This kinda stuff makes me mad for two reasons. The first, and probably the main reason, is because it does nothing except spread hate.

I didn't say anything, but I felt like saying "the only "Toxic" user is someone who would post something like this"

Notice that she does not find scat disgusting, it merely makes her uncomfortable

Poor snowflake... The Internet is such a hostile place for people who feel this threatened by other people's fetishes 🙄

The Internet is such a hostile place for people who feel this threatened by other people's fetishes.

Many nations (including the USA) as well as whole religions have a long sad history of demonizing things like BDSM, tickle torture, sexual roleplay, and other kinks.

Sadly that history lingers on still...🙁

Annoying as this sort of behavior is, it's not like it really means anything. They're stupid enough to complain about how fetish stuff shouldn't exist on a website that allows pretty much all types of fetish content. In my opinion they're either a troll or a close-minded idiot, and in either case aren't important to pay attention to.

I was raised a Catholic. I can tell you that this religion is very masochistic and homoerotic; actually too much for my taste 😀

In all seriousness, it's a different topic. What we're talking about here is this DA user's butthurt reaction and strange habit to classify what she does not like in neat little boxes, which I find hilarious 🙄

I know Ten. I'm drawing a comparison to centuries of censorship concerning fetishes and kinks and people's behavior now in the present when it comes to it.

As far as I can tell she's just voicing her likes and dislikes and let's be honest, if we weren't allowed to do that Ten, I think we'd all pick up the nearest tire iron and beat the living SHIT out of someone. 😉

Hahaha funny illustration of your point, you are absolutely right! I hate censorship and I am a big proponent of the 1st Amendment in general. Not saying she shouldn't be allowed to voice her dislikes, but I am also entitled to voice my opinion about her dislikes, just like Tickle Gamer did 😉

I just think the whole "this goes in box 1 and this goes in box 2" drawing was hilarious. Why waste so much time to tell us about stuff that don't turn you on? I have no idea 😕 And what is toxic about having a foot fetish? Besides the smell, of course 😀

The absurdity of ranting about other people's fetishes... I mean, what is the point? If I went butthurt about everything I saw on the Internet I'd spend my days doing nothing but that

Kind of curious about the rating scale in there and how it's not intuitive from one to the next. Also curious to know how this individual defines "toxic" and how that might differ from a more conventional understanding.

Eh, sometimes you gotta take the good with the bad when it comes to stuff. Let's just be thankful the internet provides a medium where we can voice our opinions free of censorship...er...um...at least in some nations that is. Heh. 😉

What made me so mad about it was that it was a blanket statement, and labeled a lot of people.

I've never like labeling, where it is being labeled myself or someone else labeling other.

My dad was bad to label groups of people just for the actions of a few. I always hated that.

Well, fellows, whenever there are haters, I try to check out the personality first before getting offended. She's barely 20 and just by browsing, I have an impression that she is into kiddie art. Our golden crap (including the toxic stuff that I oh-so loved to have produced/drawn, while you oh-so loved to have archived or at least blinked on) have been more than offensive to her for a reason. We must respect it. But with her strong stand, we had the chance to take a look on the kind of art she is into... Ugh. (I should slap myself hard for even looking!) Nevermind. The kid is not worth the time. 😉

And thanks for taking that bullet for the rest of us; sounds like it was quite the ordeal 😀

LOL 😀 Mind you, it's not the Internet that provides this; it's the 1st Amendment, or whatever equivalent in (slightly less) democratic countries. The Internet can be wonderfully liberating if used in a certain way, but it can be a formidable tool for oppression if used in another. Believe me when I say I know what I am talking about, here.

Yeah, without legal protections to prevent nations from doing so, some nations can and do indeed use the net for unethical and immoral purposes. 🙁
