Moved!!

Hello everyone

Im moving to @its-whimzy

yes, anime is not real, but anime contributes to the real-life normalization of the sexualization of minors

you can already see the consequences of this happening. the rurouni kenshin author got busted for possession of real child pornography and you know what happened to him? a 5,000 dollar fine and a warm welcome back to his old job. dude paid the fine and went right back to work. 

no jail, no loss of his job, no ostracisation in the industry. he paid a fine and went back to work. 

because in his line of work, that sort of thing is normal, and nobody paid it any mind 

you can’t oppose real-life pedophilia and ephebophilia and then look the other way when it’s “just anime.” saying it’s “just anime” makes the whole mess that little bit more normal, more socially acceptable. and then eventually people get busted for having real illegal porn and nobody cares enough to fire them. real kids are getting hurt and nothing’s getting done about it because the cartoons are making it normal. 

that’s happening right now because people scoff and say “it’s just anime” even when the consequences of that attitude are right there to behold.
