>Yes, it certainly comes across as you arguing for the opposite No, it does not. Stop being a liar.

That's not what I said. How are you this stupid? I said I think they are both, equally morally reprehensible. They both belong in the very bottom of Dante's inferno.

I saw someone suggesting mass downloading and uninstalling and downloading again all of the free games they've claimed over the years

That's not even what gatekeeping means. Unless he's trying to stand up for the universal right to participate in the child porn fandom.

> I don't think there's a moral difference between depicting "victimless" CSAM and CSAM containing a real person. I think they're both, morally, equally awful. You called them "equally awful", so yes, that is what you said.

That's a lot of interaction for a boycott, and I'm sure they would just ban your IP at some point. Of course there's always ways around that, but how much effort do you want to put into this boycott? The biggest impact you could have on them would be for everyone to go over to Steam OS which I don't believe they support. It would be hilarious if they were forced to add support in order to stay relevant. I don't think anything else would have much of an affect, because like I said their target demographic are kids, who don't really pay attention to this stuff.

I get this and I don't disagree, but I also hate that AI fully brought back thought crimes as a thing. I don't have a better approach or idea, but I really don't like that simply drawing a certain arrangement of lines and colors is now a crime. I've also seen a lot of positive sentiment at applying this to other forms of porn as well, ones less universally hated. Not supporting this use case at all and on balance I think this is the best option we have, but I do think thought crimes as a concept are just as concerning, especially given the current political climate.

Yes. They are both the worst of the worst. I place both in the very bottom of Dantes inferno. Or do you still struggle to understand what that means?

Making porn of actual people without their consent regardless of age is not a thought crime. For children, that's obviously fucked up. For adults it's directly impacting their reputation. It's not a victimless crime. But generating images of adults that don't exist? Or even clearly drawn images that aren't even realistic? I've seen a lot of people (from both sides of the political spectrum) advocate that these should be illegal if the content is what they consider icky. Like let's take bestiality for example. Obviously gross and definitely illegal in real life. But should a cartoon drawing of the act really be illegal? No one was abused. No reputation was damaged. No illegal act took place. It was simply someone's fucked up fantasy. Yet lots of people want to make that into a thought crime. I've always thought that if there isn't speech out there that makes you feel icky or gross then you don't really have free speech at all. The way you keep free speech as a right necessarily requires you to sometimes fight for the right of others to say or draw or write stuff that you vehemently disagree with, but recognize as not actually causing harm to a real person.

I do understand, i just think that you are very weird for thinking of them as equal.

I bet hes kind of right, here in the UK we just lost a whole bunch of rights and privacies online under the guise of "protect the kids" but its kind of weird to be piping up against it when theres actually protections needed.

There's this old adage, "never attribute to malice that which can be explained by stupidity". Tim Sweeney is *very* ignorant. However, he's also pretty malicious. His fedoraèd waffling should probably be taken exactly for what it is.

This isn't really a change, though, I'm pretty sure. People have been able to make photo-realistic depictions a lot longer than AI has existed and those have rightfully been held to be illegal in most places because the confusion it causes makes it harder to stop the real thing.

Literally this meme again 

They mistook your comment as disagreeing with their take on how there are real victims of Grok's porn and CSAM and saying that they themselves were supporting CSAM, rather than saying that you agree and were saying Sweeney is supporting CSAM.
