Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

It is a depiction of a child.

Your implying, that so long as information can't be validated and the image can't be verified as a real person it's ok. Cool, all you need is a filter and CP is fine!? Pictures of hate crimes are cool because it's just a picture?

What I find weird is the number of people in Lemmy who are trying to define a grey line when it's CP and when it's not. Reddit had a very real problem with CP and starting to think Lemmy very much does.

Is it? You keep saying it's a child, I'm trying to stay objective, is it? Pictures of real hate crimes are bad. But plenty of shows and movies depict hate crimes and you don't seem to be fighting that fight, seems like inconsistent morals.

Yes yes, I get it, you're against CP, I am too. My point is this isn't CP, this isn't a child. This is a make believe spiritual being that you think looks like a child. Hell in the pic shown she clearly isn't a child. I mean if you take a kid and draw a picture of what you think they'd look like as an adult is that CP? The pic isn't a child. I mean, honest question.

Don't you instantly lose any kind of validity with that comment?

You are laying down the law, you are saying what is, and is not true,with no basis to reality or logic or reason. You are just saying what you say is true, and you cannot be argued with. You don't see how fundamentally messed up that is how completely insane you sound?

You're upset about a drawing. A drawing that isn't even of a real thing.

You are upset about someone's imagination and then further upset by your interpretation of the drawing of their imagination.
