The former tend to be free-speech instance aligned even if they're not themselves. They have a tendency to federate with them. There is also a significant amount of ecchi content in the free-speech half of the fedi. Furries are tolerated on the "blue" side because they're nice to people and don't put up with racism, sexism, etc. When you've been around it long enough you start to recognize the patterns.
I'm not ever going to argue in favor of lolicon. Sorry. Finding it morally wrong is justified and anyone who doesn't want to see that shit has a right to avoid it and defederate. Changing the language to "shunning" and suggesting that defederating from pro-lolicon instances is somehow racist doesn't change that. I've seen plenty of chinese and japanese language instances in the TL that don't tolerate that stuff.
And frankly, I don't give a shit about furries because they're not attracted to literal children.
Holy shit, you're literally arguing for child porn. Blocked.
I don't think he is. I think he is admitting that what is considered child pornography varies from a community/culture to another. Does that mean that any of those position aren't inherently dangerous and should not be actively fought against ? Of course not !
The question about the moral interactions between culturally distant communities is at the heart of this debate, and I don't think there is a simple answer. And on that, I think I deeply agree with you when you argue that communities choosing who to federate (or not federate) with is a very good approach that mimics real life.
Let's just keep in mind that this method does not implies that anything that lies outside of a community moral standards should be blocked without a debate. But there are things that should clearly not be up to debate, I do not argue that.
