So-called "barely legal" pornography and content depicting sexual relationships between step-relatives are set to be banned amid efforts to regulate intimate image sharing.
Scientology isn’t pretend. Fucking rube. Do you know how much money I gave them? And you think they’re pretend. Ok. I guess I’m just stupid and give my money to whatever. Ok.
Just because something is disgusting doesn’t mean it should be illegal. IMO we should have an evidence based policy rooted in preventing harm, and I don’t see how a bunch of creeps drawing something unsavoury is causing harm to anyone.
This logic could be equally applied to basically all fetishes.
Are all people who jerk off to inflation pornography doomed to hurt themselves by trying air inflation of their bodies in real life? What about people who are into CNC? Do they inevitably get bored of it and go do actual removed? Hell, what about even just bog standard sadists? Is there an inevitable hedonic treadmill from enjoying spanking to getting into torture simulation to getting off to real snuff films to becoming a serial killer in real life?
I know this sounds like question begging, but genuinely, what about lolicon stuff is so special that it would uniquely lead to people seeking out or engaging in sexual abuses in real life?
I understand it’s especially taboo and gross, I’m certainly grossed out by it myself, but this logic doesn’t square to me.
They do know it’s just pretend, right? It’s absurd to make pretend things a crime.
scientology is pretend and should be several crimes
Well the thing is the scientology itself is pretend but the extorting followers for massive amounts of money is very real

And how can it be pretend if the e-meter says my thetans are clear of engrams? Come on it’s basic tech.
Lolicon is also pretend child porn.

hedonic treadmill. I don’t think you can ethically have a control group for this.

I’d rather not have any form of child porn
This is surely bad legislation but it won’t do any good to attack it with the same sophistry that chanlords use to defend their drawn csam and so on.
