Of course it does. Surely you and others raising concerns have the end goal of "protecting the children" and aren't just enjoying a bureaucratic LARP? From an outcome based perspective, 100% this situation was made worse via intervention. "The children" went from being exposed to inappropriate sexual material to being exposed to misogynistic and degrading sexual material. That is objectively a worse outcome and trying to claim a partial victory because "correct" steps were taken along the way ridiculous on its face.


I really dislike the attitude that wanting consistency is some kind of gotcha because "no ones perfect bro". When I say that I think the butt loop should have been rated T, I'm not unfairly comparing it to some cherry picked under judgment piece with ten views. I'm thinking it's just an animated version of any one of these pieces that were viewed by thousands of people and not only kept their T rating but were selected for being featured on the front page:



Isolated inconsistency is expected as part of human error, but at some point the whole thing is just a joke and any moral weight regarding ratings is completely lost. And I'm sure some talented rule lawyer can tell me why these pieces should be teen and yesterday's loop shouldn't but my point that it's all indiscernible to a random passer by and that effects how NG is perceived still stands. To paraphrase Rick, "Your lectures about wiggling butts mean nothing to me, I've seen the front page."


*No shade on Bacun, I had easy access to all of these because I follow him. And--as I said--I think these should be T.
