@VixelFoxx @SiriFazendoBa @GDDVL_ This isn’t even close to child pornography. And claiming otherwise is a serious insult to the real survivors of child pornography, who continue to suffer for the rest of their lives.

@MAPsPostingLs @nahnahnikki Whether it’s codified in law or not I’ve never heard of such a thing being prosecuted in the US.
Although I have seen A LOT of examples of artwork based on real minors
@Loliconomist_@nahnahnikki Well tbh I’m not a legal expert so I’d have to have one of them chime in.
In any case, it’s clearly not a law that has ever been enforced, as far as I can tell.
@nahnahnikki Yes that’s true. If the media is indistinguishable (to a reasonable person) from real photos of CSEM, then it is indeed illegal. But this would require hyperrealistic images.

@nahnahnikki Likewise, images literally traced from CSEM (which I referred to in an earlier reply) apparently are illegal! That’s what they mean when they are referring to “an actual, identifiable minor”.
If it means something else, I’d have to have a legal expert weigh in.

@Loliconomist_@nahnahnikki Now I’m assuming that they are just using SFW photos as reference material.
Tracings / redrawing of CSEM do exist (ask me how I know), and they might be illegal but I’m unclear if there have been any legal tests about it.

@Loliconomist_@nahnahnikki I’d need to see the law on that. Someone might have a valid civil case regarding that, but I’d be surprised if there was a law specifically regarding this.

@nahnahnikki For clarification, the standard is now that it must qualify as obscene, which is exceptionally hard to prove.
This is especially hard when it is distributed over the internet, because legally media is judged based on the standards of the local community.
@nahnahnikki I believe this is incorrect & you are spreading misinformation. Can you cite any law?
Afaik the 2003 PROTECT Act attempted to criminalize loli but was gutted and has only been invoked once

@Sussy_Struggs He’s referring to prison?
Seems unlikely, as chomos are the lowest of the prison hierarchy along with snitches.
However, there are allegedly some prisons that are exclusively for sex offenders, so maybe it’s possible
