"Satire"? Really?

Given how absolutely in-depth the creator's own F-List profile is about how much they're into abuse of the exact type detailed - explicitly and repeatedly - in the game, I feel as though any attempt to classify the game itself as satire is a weak, hamfisted attempt to claim there's actual merit and "art" behind it so it won't fail the Miller Test.

And as a citation, here's the F-List in question: (WARNING: NSFW AND NSFL) https://www.f-list.net/c/kitteri/ And on the off-chance that they realize it's probably a bad idea to have this publicly on display, here's an archive of that page: (copied from the source code, because archive.is unfortunately only saves the age check before the page proper) http://puu.sh/A8JSj/0e5e1a6a4f.html And yes, I HAVE confirmed that that's the actual creator's F-List; it's directly linked from their So Furry page, which along with several builds of Paraphore includes some of their other writing works, such as the four-chapter gem that is "Kittyslut Factory", whose first chapter I have screencapped the tags of for your viewing pleasure: https://bit.ly/2HJIuOm

If anyone has any legitimate argument as to how this actually constitutes "satire" of anything and isn't just an obscene project that exists for the unironic sexual enjoyment of a disturbed individual, please do not hesitate to post it because I am genuinely curious as to a reason - any reason at all - why this should be allowed to exist in the first place beyond simple "freedom of expression".

Yo, why are you so salty? This reads like a hell of a lot of salt.

That, and "Stop liking what I don't like". What'd this game do to piss you off so much, besides exist?

Like yo, you know people can tell the difference between fantasy and reality, right dude/dudette/other pronoun?

"And on the off-chance that they realize it's probably a bad idea to have this publicly on display-" - You do realize he made the porn game you're so salty about, yeah? I REALLY don't think he gives a shit what people think. He's not gonna go "Oh shit burn all the files!" Because One (1) person is upset that he can fully make a game with his kinks/fetishes in it. Don't tell me you wouldn't make your own fucked-up fetish game if you had the knowledge to.

There's also the part where he has a Patreon for this game that is currently raking in $1,337 per month at 198 patrons. So obviously, other people are taking an interest in this thing. So I think this post is an entire shaker full of salt at how a perverted fucked up dude can get $1k a month for writing fucked up perverted porn while you sit in your low-rent apartment editing TV Tropes articles for no benefit. But that's life.

P.S: If you look at the history you'll see that a *moderator* of all people messed around with the article a bit, but yet didn't delete it. I guess that makes things pretty clear, doesn't it?

My confusion is - why is this game allowed an article, but Corruption of Champions and Tainted Space - the latter of which has legitimate, non-sexual gameplay in it - are considered too taboo?

Additionally, and to be clear: Why is this game - a game that has sexualized art of an underage character on the loading screen, and is CLEARLY CLEARLY depicting minors in sexual situations - still allowed on here?

Because they're not real?

Real or not, it is still in very, very clear violation of this site's content policy. =/

From where I stand, this article is against the site's content policy.

The links herein are also in direct violation of the site's content policy too - direct links are not allowed to sexual works.

This is what caused several existential crisis for the site, and the development of some of these policies.

If you're salty about it being moderated in accordance to site policy, then take it to All The Tropes (which explicitly split from T Vtropes due to the removal of explicitly adult content), but as far as I'm aware this work should be flagged for clean up, if not outright removed.

Edit: Link to the Content Policy: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Administrivia/TheContentPolicyAndThe5PCircuit

Note the ban on explicit sexual content and appeals to paedophilia/sexualized minors. The dubious distinction of 'satire' doesn't justify this.
