The major hentai sites like gelbooru and danbooru are still around, it's just the smaller hentai sites and communities based around specific fandoms are gone. Now all that's left are the major ones with no real identity and the social media platorms that allow hentai. Don't get me wrong, I love gelbooru but I just miss the days of small hentai sites dedicated to specific fandoms.

Quote:Yahoo Groups that used to have tons of hentai groups is gone.

Yeah I really miss yahoo groups, speaking of which I remembered recently that the pic I talked about in my first post, I originally found on a yahoo group in like 2002. 

Quote: there's the big fight to kick hentai out like they did with Tumblr.

I will never understand the militant anti-hentai crowd. These same types of people always go on and on about how the porn industry exploits women and how women are being objectified. Yet here you have a form of pornography where no human being or otherwise living thing is being exploited, harmed, or objectified...and yet they complain about it even more.


Quote:As for the social media, Twitter is so cancel-crazy that I'm surprised there are even hentai artists on Twitter. They're so politically correct you can't tell if they're gonna come after you because of nude art or because you didn't draw the dark girl dark enough. I remember someone drew this pic of Bea from Pokémon in a seductive pose and with bigger and more detailed T&A when compared to the original model, and everyone was all up and arms cause they felt her skin tone was a little too light. They were so busy accusing the artist of 'whitewashing' they didn't go for the more obvious thing of 'omg why are you sexualizing a cartoon character' or whatever. It's a shit show. Don't get me started on that random artist that took the chubbier characters from Steven Universe, slimmed them down and drew them sexy in the more conventional sense. They were out for his/her life, as in they wanted the person to kill themselves. Over art. WTF.

Yeah cancel culture is crazy. What's even crazier is just how many people participate in it. It isn't just a few thousand nutjobs, there's millions of them now. Not only that but these masses actually have power and influence now. They've gotten people deplatformed, bullied people off the internet, gotten people fired and even ruined lives completely, all because they posted something on the internet that made them angry.  I don't see cancel culture ever going away, it only gets worse and worse and the scope of what is deemed acceptable keeps shrinking. I have pretty much no hope for humanity, much less the internet.
