What does it mean to "promote child exploitation"? When it's figurines that have been sold for years but now violate Amazon's statutes about promoting child exploitation which resulted in listings being removed. Chuck Gaffney has run a successful Amazon store for years selling anime-related products, up until recently when Amazon started cracking down on anything that could be perceived as "promoting child exploitation".
While it can be difficult for online retailers to represent themselves as selling genuine merchandise — meaning reputation means a lot — this type of behavior from the market owner is very discouraging. In response, the seller blames a "neopuritan crusade" against anime figures.
The characters at the center of this disagreement are: Hatsune Miku and KaitÅ Tenshi Twin Angel.
It's a wonder that anything anime-related survives importation to the US from Japan.

I will definitely grant you the Catholic Church. The homosexual pedophile situation is however peculiar to their denomination. It's completely because priests are not allowed to marry. Catholicism is not all of Christianity though.
And people on this site are still not acknowledging the Hollywood problem which in recent years has had the lid blown off it of passing around children at sex parties. People must acknowledge this. is it anti-Semitic to do so and this is why people won't touch it? Their control is apparently strong even here.

The Jehovah's Witnesses treat child sexual abuse in much the same way that the Catholic Church does, including requiring "two witnesses" and covering it up if they can.
You know as well as I do that when some politician is found in a hotel room with a rent-boy and a pile of coke, it is always some anti-gay, hard-core Christian Republican.
