User Tisane, this could end badly Options

The Libertarian candidate in 2008 for Virginia's 1st congressional district and and one of Abd's former mentors [1] had another account blocked August 11 2010.

He recently spent 14 months in prison for threatening to kill the president, and has just now decided not to comply with his conditions of supervised release.

His autobiography is here, and the letter sent to his probation officer is here.

I had some good mentors early on, most notably an editor known by many names, a long-term Wikipedian who, for his own reasons, kept dropping accounts and starting up new ones, though under (originally) no sanctions. He never used two accounts simultaneously, never went back to old accounts, and all were acknowledged or blatantly obvious, far from concealed. One of the names was Sarsaparilla, it's not hard at all to find another going back about two years before I met him. Older accounts he never revealed even to me, and he had real-life reasons to avoid disclosing them, he claimed.

Hey Michael, is there any way to get that page deleted? It should be deleted, burned, raised as a blank page, deleted again, then bleach should be passed around to dab into anyone's eyes who happened to have bumped into that page.

It's his private wiki/blog a.k.a. "bliki."

HostMonster is the web host. Their ToS states under 10. Prohibitions, Section 10 that the hosting of child pornography is not allowed. Maybe contacting their "Terms of Service Compliance Department" could get the site shut down and the police notified?

For what? The page is not pornography. Period. "Child pornography" has a legal definition. Now, you might still be able to convince a service provider to take it down anyway. Sometimes they will shoot first and ask questions later.

What the page actually was, though, is an examination of an issue. It's political, and it's "outrageous," deliberately. It might as well have been designed, quite precisely and effectively, to cause Ottava to go ballistic.

The page does not advocate pedophilia. It looks at the legal issues.. Much of what is on that page can be found in many other places, including law articles, etc.

On RationalWiki, I pointed out, as part of the discussion, the legal distinction between "child erotica" and "child pornography." The response of one editor to that was to claim he was resigning from the wiki, because of this totally disgusting commentary. Pointing out a thoroughly established legal distinction, supported by lots of cases, was unacceptable.

Police know this distinction, they have to, or they waste tons of time and money better spent actually fighting child pornography and child sexual abuse. Lawyers know it, and explain it on their web sites.

But the very idea of "child erotica" drives some people so crazy that it's impossible to talk about it.

Here as well, it seems.

"Child erotica" conjures up an image of pedophiles, since aren't they the only people who would even look at such? That's crazy, in fact. Tisane is not a pedophile. It's obvious from his "Pedophilia" page. He is able to look at "child erotica" without having a true sexual response. He clearly does not prefer children, and he's quite aware of the possible harm of any sexual relationship of an adult with children. He sees the attractiveness of the children. So does nearly every normal person, male or female. That does not make a normal person a "pedophile," and all that Tisane has done, which seems so offensive, is to describe a normal response. Talking about that response is what is not normal.

What is generally offensive about the "child erotica" images is what we imagine about the publishers. I hope that people here are aware that Tisane did not take these photos, they are all readily available on the web. He collected them, not as a private "erotica" stash, but to make a point about what is legal. The "fashion" images show girls posing "provocatively." That's what is knee-jerk offensive about them. As a parent, I'm offended that kids are being used in this way. But images like that are used in advertising, it is not uncommon. There are "beauty contests" for children where the children pose like adults. Provocatively.

"Child pornography" is not readily available. You really have to work to find it, I've done searches, researching these issues, and have never seen any. Except, of course, on Commons, in those old engravings. That is, as generally defined, child pornography. I'm sure that the lawyers for the WMF are aware of the issues.

If what is on that page requires bleach in the eyes, I'm in deep trouble. I have children, ages 9 and 11 right now. I routinely see what, if photographed, would be "child erotica." (Mostly without the provocative poses, but my 11-year old is starting to imitate what she sees in youtube videos. Provocative.) I never see what would be called "child pornography" if photographed.

Ottava in other places, claimed that child nudity was inherently sexual. That reveals far more about Ottava than it does about others who might have photos of their children nude.

There is one nude photo of two girls on Tisane's page. They are not sexually provocative. Tisane makes a comment about one of them possibly developing curves. That, in fact, reveals what is actually attractive to him, adult curves.

Tisane is practically an instinctive troll. He knows exactly how to push the buttons of people like Ottava, and even more normal people. Based on irrationality and "forbidden" topics.
