    Controversial opinion: If killing npcs in video games is fine and shouldn’t land you in prison for murder, because they are fictional and not real people, then porn of “underage” fictional characters is also fine and shouldn’t be illegal.

    Finding something disgusting is not a proper reason to make something illegal. The only relevant aspect is whether it causes harm to others or not.

    • Csam harms children -> should be illegal and punished
    • fictional drawings don’t harm anyone bevause no actual people involved -> should be legal

      I’m not talking about legal judgement (I practically never do) and I’m not even talking bout legit PDF files.

      It’s just disgusting that rule 34 of literal children scores this high.

      In the UK it doesn’t matter if its a photo of a real person or not, porn that depicts a child is illegal.

      Tbh I think with the use of AI at this point this might be a pretty good law to have. “It was AI generated” is not a defence. Realistically if you are doing it for yourself no one will find out so there is some kind of argument as to it being harmless, but when you start doing other things with those images such as using them for blackmail the police should be able to use that as sufficient evidence to charge you.

          We certainly have issues, but intolerance of paedophilia isn’t one of them. I’m happy we see it that way.

            That’s the thing. Y’all do tolerate it. There’s article after article about letting them get away with just a slap on the wrist
