LJ Abuse vs Boob Nazis
cali4niachef is informed by LJ Abuse her default icon is inappropriate and to cease using it by the 23rd or face having her account suspended.

Boob Nazis. LJ Abuse. Breastfeeding Icons.

I think we can all see where this is going. (booju_mooju first of all it seems.)

Once the anti-breastfeeding comms get hold of this it should really take off.

Edit the first Thanks to quickfade Apparently hardvice is responsible Icons in comments NSFW.

Edit the second Thanks to a mousie. cf_hardcore join the party.

Edit the third Thanks to freezer It hits metaquotes.

Edit the forth stupid_free weigh in. And fuckyoulist makes an appearance too.

Edit the fifth Just how much further can it spread? As far as retarded_icons, blackfolk and feminist apparently.

Edit the sixth hardvice shows solidarity with the boob_nazis. And magdalene74 has a new lj approved breastfeeding icon.

And to think when I originally posted this I was worried it wasn't wanky enough.

Edit the seventh Annnnnnnnnnd here's anti-feminist joining in the fun.

Edit the eighth Predictably - Exposing LJ Abuse

	you know what? this is fucked. why should a picture of a woman nursing be deemed inappropriate. i hope they do make a huge fuss over it. lj doesn't seem to have a problem with my icon of a vagina with a pair of fake vampire teeth poking out of it. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I don't necessarily disagree, but it's the sheer over-the-top hysteria of the posters that makes it wanktacular. Also the interweb lawyering. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	If your vagina dentata is your default icon, I'm guessing they would make a fuss about it - but only if someone reported it. For legal reasons, that's how LJ Abuse works: they only act on reports. I don't agree with the breastfeeding icon being offensive, either, but these people are crazy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That's a pretty good analogy for my experience with pro-breastfeeders. Me: "I agree, women should be able to breastfeed in public" After five more minutes of converstion: Me: "You're a raving psycho." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The best argument against ~~democracy~~ breastfeeding in public is a five minute conversation with the average ~~voter~~ boob-nazi. -- ~~Winston Churchill~~ andra_dodger (Reply to this)(Parent)
