Antis, you need to learn that screencapping and reposting the art you find to be "cp" would be considered redistribution and spread of CSEM, and would land you in prison - if, of course, said art was actually CSEM, and not just something you find disturbing and distasteful
It's okay to think loli/shota art is gross. I hate it too. But it's not CSEM. It can NEVER be CSEM.

Say it with me: the reason CSEM is bad is because children are abused to produce it. NOT because you find it gross.

And you cannot use disgust to measure morality.
You need to start using "harm done" as your metric for morality, NOT "it's disgusting!!" Loli/shota harms nobody during its creation.

And if you argue "it 'normalizes' pedophilia!" then know that there is evidence to suggest that access to loli/shota art may PREVENT CSA
And more to the point: human psychology does NOT often follow your common-sense thought process. You cannot say that loli/shota have a DEFINITIVE causal affect on increasing rates of CSA because *there is no unbiased evidence to support this*
"Common sense" arguments DO NOT APPLY to psychology. Humans are far more complex than that.

Unless you have a legit psych degree and have experience dealing with child molesters or clinical pedophiles (YES there is a difference) you CANNOT speak as an authority on this subject.
Art is NOT CSEM, and you ALL know this. Otherwise you would all be in prison for redistributing it/spreading around the names of people who make it.

Stop calling disgust morality. Stop pretending you know anything about psychology. You are partially informed, not an expert.
Block, mute, and ignore what you find despicable.

But for *fuck's* sake, stop pretending to have any kind of moral or academic authority over strangers on the internet. BECAUSE YOU HAVE NONE.
