Mainstream photoshoot too sensitive for Ignorance Denying ATS?

Last week a thread popped up about a French Vogue fashion photoshoot. Pics were made featuring young girls, around 7 years old, dressed up like adult models, wearing make up, and designer dresses.

The pics were published for the mainstream, in the Vogue magazine. They depicted no nudity, sex, sexual acts, or implied sexual acts.

It is up for debate wether or not this is something we should want as a society, but obviously no legal lines were crossed, since these pics appeared in a mainstream publication, and no one was charged with criminal conduct.

So why in hell was this material deemed too sensitive for ATS, and why did it have to be moved to RATS, hidden from public view?

Too sensitive for ATS, gimme a break. We talk about murder, genocide and all sorts of sensitive subjects here, videos of natural disaster and ´terrorist´ attacks were thousands of people died, but a mainstream photoshoot, and the following discussion has to be hidden from public view?

Seems like the ownership doesn´t want to be associated with that thread, why?

Bad for business?

I thought the motto was Deny Ignorance.

Part 2 of rant.

The HOAX forum,

[HOAX!]: Dedicated forum for ATS threads that have been proven to be hoaxes, frauds, or part of deceptive schemes on a variety of topics. Topics in this forum will range from those that have proven to be an actual hoax to those where a significant majority of ATS members believe the subject matter to be based on fraudulent material.

The thread in particular is a recent chemtrail thread. It is unprovable that the info in the OP is false and deceptive, and especially unproven that it is a deliberate attempt at disinformation.

I also believe that there is not a significant majority that believes the subject matter to be based on fraudulent material.

The fact that mob rule can determine a subject to be a HOAX without having to prove it, is ridiculous.

Deny Ignorance, jeah right.

It seems that this site is censoring itself more and more.

Let´s see how long this thread remains.

End of rant.

little girls or children shouldn't be displayed in a sexualized manner, period.

try to see the bigger picture dude, why this overt sexualization of children in recent times?
is society that far gone? also having witnessed the passing through of the hordes of GLP thru ATS recently do we really want a flood of 4chaner's signing up and posting threads on the conspiracy to criminalize pedo-bear?


part 2

CT's are a highly speculative topic don't want to give myself away but will be posting a thread that will blow the "Connies" and their Internet Hate Machine out of the sky,
1st and foremost my hatred of authoritarians,bullies,mobbers, and other fascists borders on the psychotic,2nd payback for the only 2 members I'd friended one is now mysteriously banned in March, though he hasn't signed on since February and the other seems to have left ATS for good.

What do you mean period? I didn´t suggest that they should, did I?

I´m saying that the the pics were not sexual in nature. They were meant to resemble a real Vogue fashion shoot. One could argue that adult models are sexualised too, and that therefore these children are too. Like I said it is up for debate if we would want this as a society.

The only question is why ATS hid this thread, and the debate from public view, since it wasn´t really shocking or borderline illegal and also a mainstream publication.

ATS members with enough posts can still view the thread, and the public, can´t.

This means that the problem is obviously not with the pics, or the debate, the problem is ATS´ image, what the outside world thinks.

I don´t know if that is healthy attitude for a site like this. Then again, I don´t know what the interests are behind the scenes.

I can relate to that, lol.

Looking forward to your thread.

Thnx for replying.

actually the purpose of RATS is to keep things on the more serious side and as assclown/troll free as possible, as i understand it.
at least it wasn't completely deleted.



oh and don't feel bad by the lack of replies 2 other members saw this but just F&S

i suspect timing is a factor as ive had this happen to me as well

I think most real trolls have already made 200 posts, and can join in. I mean almost all posters can enter RATS if they want to, it´s obviously there to hide undesired stuff from public view.

at least it wasn't completely deleted.

I don´t care about the thread, it´s the principle that matters.

And I don´t feel bad, but thank you.

It´s just a rant.
