    I think revenge porn, whether real or just claiming to be real, is a hard limit for literally everybody on earth who isn’t already engaging in that behavior.

    Like, I really want to like the libertarian movement. I think there are some good ideas there, but the movement always returns back to this: the defense of sex crimes.

    It just bugs me that this is the hill ya’ll choose to die on, every single time.

      Should it be illegal for someone to draw a hyper realistic image of another person in a compromising position? It’s not and shouldn’t be. It’s the basis to satire and historically and answer to power imbalances.

      My point was that this has always been possible - the discussion seems to be around the new easy access.

      I have no clue what political thing you are adding, not super interested in foreign politics.

        We are specifically talking about forcing people to engage in pornography against their will, not political satire.

        I have a hard time believing anybody who isn’t a sex criminal is incapable of understanding that difference.

          We are specifically talking about forcing people to engage in pornography against their will, not political satire.

          I mean, we aren’t talking about that, because the topic at hand is specifically porn that people aren’t being forced to engage in, but rather porn that pretends to do so really, really well. And that difference is at the core of the point you’re ignoring.

          I have a hard time believing anybody who isn’t a sex criminal is incapable of understanding that difference.

          Ah, yes, resorting to ad hominem when logic and rhetoric fail you. Stay classy.

            I have to pay Tom Holland rights if I want to use his likeness for a video game, and he can turn me down at any time, but you want the right to use anybody’s likeness without their consent or financial gain so you can create porn?
