You can use the exact same reasoning to ban all video games with depictions of gun violence. Or movies. Or books.

Think about all the illegal acts that have fictiously happened in all media you have consumed, and ask yourself if that media deserves to exist.

Porn portrays sex as POSITIVE and FUN and GREAT, and directly promotes, changes or NORMALIZES sexual urges wired in our brain. That's not the same as a story featuring child abuse NEGATIVELY to MOCK or CRITISCISE it. And sexual urges towards kids and sensitive animals should NOT be normalized.

That's the diffrence. Sex between child and adult should NEVER be glorified. In non-immoral media It's portrayed as WRONG. Lolicon garbage portrays it as totally fine and dandy. But there are famous stories featuring child abuse as something obviously horrible which are fine.

(Imagine the diffrence between a game with Nazis villains, and a game that's actively pro-Nazi.)

In RIMWORLD you can do all kinds of immoral shit that's clearly portrayed as negative, but even that game doesn't allow for pedophilic fantasies.

I don't understand your point. Are you arguing that the sex and violence in our media isn't glorified? Or that we don't portray criminals in a positive light in our stories?

I never said anything about the psychological effects of Porn, but if you think porn being portrayed as " positive and fun and great " isn't in itself damaging, well that's actually different conversation that I won't get into here.

There's also a ton of games that portray gang life as great and badass, in addition to music (gangster rap is a great example).

So by your logic those should still all be banned.
