    Freedom of speech protects you in a public forum. This is not a public forum.



    Meh, this is just another crappy concept with mediocre art to it. Some ****ty little sexual fantasy some random douchebag has.

    Unfortunately the filter can't tell the context a word is used in. I believe it filters out that word so people can't use it as a personal insult, not to suppress free speech.

    Why the hell is a soldier of Khorne fighting for freedom???
    When you do something right people wont be sure that you've done anything at all.

    Its not that good, I've seen a lot better. Even on deviantart where most of it is porn.

    I don't agree with censorship of things related to fascism, but bear in mind in Europe they virtually burnt the continent to the ground and killed tens of millions of people. Its not banned because 'socialists' are touchy, its banned because the scars still remain.

    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    I've never been much of a fan of this sort of art, though it is pretty good quality. I prefer "clean" art as opposed to mutated, twisted flesh stuff. Something more like this, for example (just pulled this randomly off google images):

    Yeah, I'd think it's more because people seem to like insulting other people by calling them ******.

    Free speech is also a real tricky thing to discuss rights, because there's a very fine line to tread. Kinda like the whole "my right to swing my fist ends where the other guy's face begins".

    Not that I'm saying that you can't offend anyone, ever, nor that you're not allowed to punch someone. In fact, quite the opposite. The right to defend yourself is a far more important right than freedom of speech ever will be. But I digress.

    It's passable but barely.

    The execution is decent, the artist shows good technique but in line with 40K fluff no member of the adeptus soretis would allow herself to live under those conditions. Death before dishonor. Also, the chaos lord seems rather sickly and emaciated kinda like Lindsay Lohan on after one of her binges, I highly doubt he would be able to control a Sister of battle.

    I'm not offended, I've seen far worse. I've seen an image of a... hermaphroditic Sister of Battle, with an =][= tattoo on a compromising location, impregnating a chaos cultist. It's trashy, just like this, but at least it has the distinction of being porn and thus intentionally having no rhyme or reason for it. This? This is just a douchey little power fantasy, without even the excuse of being porn. So it's incredibly trashy.

    Trash is just something to be thrown away, not something to be offended by.

    The old (not that there's a new one yet) Asdrubael Vect DE model had a Battle Sister prisoner stripped right down to her 'underwear'. Guess once you fill them with enough drugs (DE) or use them to host a daemon (Chaos) they'll break - they aren't Grey Knights
