    You can certainly argue that AI-generated CSAM does less harm but you can’t argue from that to legalising it because it still does a bucketload of harm. Consumers of CSAM are very likely to harm real children and normalising CSAM makes that much more likely.

    This argument is a non-starter and people really need to stop pushing it.

      If any of that was objectively true, then yeah, I agree. Problem is, it looks like you just pulled that out of your ass.

      You’re literally claiming a bunch of things as facts. Any spur ea to back that up?
