Hello again folks,
I realize that I may have done a poor job of communicating this issue - objective facts with regard to the site's rules are always preferable to emotionally charged adjective slinging. I apologize for both my inability to locate the site's rules at the time of writng, and for my lack of awareness with regard to where this thread would have been best suited.
Thank you to the moderators for their measured feedback and helpful technical maneuverings.
I am convinced that despite the best intentions of those in favor of keeping the manga on this site, it graphically depicts inhumane treatment of another human in such a manner that I can only assume it is intended for the pleasure of a select few who harbor the desire to enact similar circumstances in real life. Even if it does so only once, that is enough to warrant the action I have requested. Whether there are other comics on this site containing similar content or even escalated content is irrelevant to my request. The fact that other inhumane depictions may have gone unflagged in no way mitigates the responsibility of the community to address the concern when a flag finally is raised.
It bears repeating that (excepting all of the playful sexual banter on batoto, of which there is much) I hope that no one here would willingly participate in anything that resembles encouraging a person that is cultivating a taste for the victimization of other humans in real life. Even if 90% of readers pass over that scene with a nonchalance that indicates indifference to the objectionable material, the merest possibility that a fraction of readers are viewing that scene with a particular interest in gratifying their desire for similar circumstances in real life (ie the torture of other humans), it seems in the best interest of the community to take that material down.
I will do my part later this evening to identify specifically how it may violate the rules of the community and make a more functional argument at that time, but I felt this is a good followup to my initial post.
Thank you for your time,
RaLeader
