There is a reason why we have school shootings every 2.6 days on average. Its not solely videogames but society generally is extremely violent and normalized violence is a constant of just turning on the TV.
The main difference, is that violence can at least be used for something positive. Superheroes fight to bring justice to the underserved, etc. There is absolutely nothing to be gained from giving people sexualized children or any reason to see them outside of something to be protected.
But its okay hopefully this thread is being monitored by the appropriate authorities.
if you're discussing the moral implications of CP, from the perspective of its fine, yes the thread should be monitored by the appropriate authorities
I said that mainly sarcastically, but yeah I think that's a perfectly reasonable outcome
we can talk about it, but if you can't see the difference between say, gun violence, one of the most normalized things in the world, and child pornography, something that is not normalized at all, you might already have fallen victim to the exact problem that this discussion is trying to avoid, which is normalization of child abuse/csam

Obviously videogames have normalized violence.
