I hate that you have to risk reputational damage to come out in defense of loli art and your right to pay for it.

Like, yes, I'm not exactly going to make any bones about what I take away from it but I know that what I get out of it and why I argue that its monetization is not wrong are separate issues and that the defense of someone's right to draw it isn't just because I want more pictures of naked kids to consume. If someone was taking umbrage with other forms of hentai being monetized I would be just as adamant that they be allowed to continue getting money for what they do because it's art, it deserves to be protected and monetized by the one who made it.
