🎙️ If it kinda seems like we're harping on about this Patreon and kink art situation, you need to understand it's because systemic platform-level purges like this don't happen to take out a few bad actors. It's that the bad actors(if they even exist) are the rhetorical justification to execute the purge, not the other way around.

You do not fix an issue with a theoretical missing stair by tearing down the entire fucking house. This kind of neopuritanism around queer sexuality is used to excuse acts of open systemic violence against queer people, always, always, always always always always always. Please look at your queer history and understand that none of the gains we've made were won by being 'respectable' or 'polishing up our image' or 'getting rid of the bad apples' before you decide you care more about the nonexistent agency of fictional fucking characters than you do about the actual living, breathing people around you.
