Why would they suddenly decide to sanitize their platform of something that isn't inherently wrong when they never had an issue with it before?
because they're now being pulled from the app store for it
weird because twitter has porn on it and so does reddit
They weren’t removed for porn, according to apple they were hosting actual child porn.

The deal with what specifically? Health? You really can't judge them all as a group.
For example:
The recently approved Innate Potato by Simplot simply has 4 genes turned off, which prevent it from making black spots, browning and making asparagine (which turns to acrylamide when fried, a known neurotoxin and possible carcinogen, boil don't broil your asparagus kids). That's it, no genes added or even removed, just tagged with a sequence found in plenty of other potato genes that tells the cell to turn them off. Really no conceivable way it can do harm, other than less cancerous fries. Regardless fast food companies have turned it down due to the general stigma against GMO's.
Another:
Insect resistant crops are given a gene containing the template for a protein called Cry. It was found in bacteria and will kill insects by making little holes in any cells with a matching receptor (a lot of proteins work by having a matching shape to another protein, like a lock and key). Only certain insects have the right shaped "locks" to match Cry's "key," and there has been no sign that it does anything in plant or human cells.
The bacteria that naturally makes Cry is used as a natural pesticide (BT Pesticides), widely used on organic crops for the last 50 years. Unwashed organic foods are covered in Cry, and it is known that after we eat it quickly gets destroyed by our stomach acid. However Cry could be a potential allergen if inhaled, something that could be an issue since unlike the sprayed crops Cry-GMO plants would carry it in their pollen.
What I'm getting at is that all specific GMO's are unique and have to be judged on their own merits.
Cry being an allergen doesn't make acrylamide healthy, and vice versa.
There are legitimate issues with GMO's regarding how corporations patent them, without a change in current patent laws they are very easy to monopolize. Additionally it is very hard to prevent plants from doing mixed-breeding, and since the testing and approval regulations are so slow companies are encouraged to just make monocultures - can be very bad if we become too reliant on them (they would all be wiped out in a blight).
Off-target effects of splicing are not a problem though, with current techniques the number of unexpected DNA changes is usually, well 0. Compare that to traditional selective breeding, where a common practice is to bath young plants in radiation to induce thousands of random, uncontrolled mutations.

The simple answer is that you've mistakenly defined "special" as a synonym for "unique" which it is not.
To call oneself special is to call oneself better than others. There are many ways one can become "special," shitposting on a backwater forum is not one of them.

There's ero scenes but if you're playing Realta Nua they can be turned off, which is recommended because they're kind of hilariously bad.
i was told there was lewd meme shit in stay night novel thing you mean isn't recommended because they're HILARIOUSLY bad

How is it weird? It's a very efficient way to exchange hormones and evaluate compatibility.

Let me get this straight; you plastered your image over dozens of websites and are now creeped out that random people have access to it. Good luck with that.

From what I know it was basically a parody that got so popular the creators realized they could make a good amount of money from canonizing it. So it's really America's fault for introducing capitalism.

I'm almost certain one of the Fate nerds said that every route is canon, so lolis making out is totally legit.
What kind of sorcerous fuckery does one have to pull out of their ass to end up with this shit as an outcome? Is this what happens if Gilgamesh wins?

I only watch anime ironically.

But seriously, I'm not watching this shit. It's like Monster Girl Quest the anime.
Monster Girl Quest actually had a story and character development though.

You could be much more concerned about legislation among other things that actually changes your life and can infringe upon your rights. That's all I'm saying.
When we see a bunch of atheists doing sit-ins and hunger strikes over this you might have a point. When saying this about posts on a backwater internet forum it seems a bit overly defensive. It's not like you would to go over to the flood and post "you have too much time in your hands" in every thread that isn't about some more important issue after all.
