The US still recognizes the difference between drawings and pictures.
Edit: Voat is located in the US, and is, as such, subject to their laws. Here's a breakdown.

Because drawings are not real.

Drawn porn of minors is legal in some countries. And as far as I know this includes the US where Voat is incorporated and is hosting the servers.

photos of CP are only banned in the long run because the federal government would shut this site down in moments notice if they weren't. Which is to say, if they could, they wouldn't even ban that. (I am speculating a bit, but given the "No censorship mantra" that Voat has, it seems to go without saying.

Is nit illegal, is not harming real people.
Any argument against drawn porn can be used with drawn violence (videogames anyone?) and the argument does not hold water in neither case.

Legally it's a matter of free speech and the concept of thought crimes being invalid. The artist is expressing thoughts, not hurting children.
The most common comparison is murder, a more vile crime that we see depicted pretty regularly.

Because you can not actually tell how old a individual in a drawing, rendering or computer created image is, all the subverse has to do is declare everyone as 18 years old and there is no way to prove otherwise.

He was looking for an honest discussion. It wasn't really a pointed question like the others I've seen on this topic. There was no need for that attitude.
