> Child pornography (CP), also known as child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and by more informal terms such as kiddie porn, is erotic material that involves or **depicts** persons under the designated age of majority. [...] > Laws regarding child pornography generally include sexual images involving prepubescents, pubescent, or post-pubescent minors and **computer-generated images** that appear to involve them. (Emphasis mine) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_pornography'These several things are illegal, including the real thing and several made-up things.' Please stop misusing the term that explicitly refers to the the real thing. 'No.'

>The \*entire point\* of the term CSAM is that it's the actual real evidence of child rape. You are completely wrong. https://rainn.org/get-the-facts-about-csam-child-sexual-abuse-material/what-is-csam/ “Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) is not “child pornography.” It’s evidence of child sexual abuse—and it’s a crime to create, distribute, or possess. CSAM includes both real and synthetic content, such as images created with artificial intelligence tools.”RAINN has completely lost the plot by conflating the explicit term for Literal Photographic Evidence Of An Event Where A Child Was Raped with made-up bullshit.

I am going to be an absolute crank about this: CSAM means photographic evidence of child rape. If that event did not happen, say something else. The *entire point* of this term is to distinguish the go-to-jail imagery stemming from unambiguous crimes, versus any form of made-up nonsense. Bart Simpson is not eligible. Bart Simpson does not exist. Photorealistic depictions of real children can be hyper illegal, but unless they are *real,* they're not CSAM. Say something else. Otherwise we'll have to invent some even less ambiguous term from *evidence of child abuse,* and the fuckers downvoting this comment will also misappropriate that, to talk about shit that does not qualify.

From the article: > The Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network (RAINN) defines child sexual abuse material (CSAM) as "evidence of child sexual abuse" that "includes both real and synthetic content, such as images created with artificial intelligence tools."They're wrong. As evidenced by *what those words mean.*

CSAM is abusive material of a sexual nature of a child. Generated or real, both fit this definition.CSAM is material.... from the sexual abuse... of a child. Fiction does not count.
-
There cannot be material from the sexual abuse of a child if that sexual abuse did not fucking happen. The term does not mean 'shit what looks like it could be from the abuse of some child I guess.' It means, state's evidence of actual crimes.
-
It is sexual abuse even by your definition if photos of real children get sexualised by AI and land on xitter. And afaik know that is what's happened. These kids did not consent to have their likeness sexualised.Nothing done to your *likeness* is a thing that happened *to you.* Do you people not understand reality is different from fiction?

This post did not contain any content.HAHAHAHA Just stop the corn bro... IS everything the lowest common denominator... beatin meat.... I don't eat when I sh!+... Like time and place.... Tim you a straight arse ladder pulling enshittificating boomer reprobate. This pud skims the surface like the scum that he is. One day the master race will get all the gold coins and build a circus that no one can afford. Finger crossed!!! Nukes_2026

You’re the only one using that definition.My definition is from *what words mean.* We need a term to specifically refer to actual photographs of actual child abuse. What the fuck are we supposed to call that, such that schmucks won't use the same label to refer to drawings?
-
Your kindness modified naked being fucked, printed out and stapled to a tree in your neighborhood is ok then?A threat of murder is a crime without being the same thing as murder. Meditate on this.

Isn't it abuse if i take a picture of a girl, let grok remove the clothes and post this online?It's a crime, but it's not the same crime as taking the actual clothes off the actual girl. She was not physically abused. She was not even *involved.*
-
Nothing made-up is CSAM. That is the entire point of the term "CSAM." It's like calling a horror movie murder.
