      My issue is with censoring nudity, especially considering the topic of this community. There is nothing inherently sexual with our naked bodies, I think censoring only strengthens the idea of that it is.

      I agree that we need to respect the original people of Australia (and other places for that matter), and acknowledge the atrocities committed towards them and the ongoing harm that results from it[1].

      My belief is that an accompanying message, like they do (and are obliged to?) in Australia, to acknowledge the Aboriginals and Torres Straight Islanders, is more helpful than censoring parts of human beings.

      Or ykno, it’s more like “I can’t believe someone was so pissed off that they showed a nipple in a piece of art that they went and defaced the art entirely”

      It’s like me saying that I don’t like your comment bc it hurt my wittle feelings, so I think I’ll just change your comment to “uwu yes daddy” because that makes me feel better. It’s stupid fucking Americans and prudes having to take a piece of art with a message and make it about them, as always. Fucking prudes can’t just let things be. If you’re deathly afraid of a nipple and think it can unravel the very moral fabric of society and that’s a good reason to tell women they deserve less rights than men, I’m willing to spend a decent section of my day taking time out to spite you.
