@Rea I doubt you'll understand since you seem incapable of thinking about the bigger picture, but art isn't literally the thing it represents. It can mean different things to different people, and the reason I was asking you about Jinx's uke was because people are popping off in the comments here sexualizing Yuu, a seventeen year old minor, and nobody gives a single da**. I care, because the lack of pushback they get for it is insidious. People agree that sexualizing child characters is wrong, usually even when they're into it, but teenage characters? Nah bruh. Be as weird as you like and nobody cares, so long as it looks 'adult-ish'. Which I would think you'd know all about, but ig it's fine right?
We both want real children to be safe. Or at least, I do. I'd just rather that creepy people have fictional outlets rather than turning to CSAM. The more you suppress things, the more underground it goes, and the less control you have over the outcome - they go back to infiltrating schools and forming 'support groups'. Your approach won't stop CSAM, and it won't stop abuse. It didn't stop Epstein.
