  Looks like it’s time to reinvent the torture nexus from famed science fiction novel “Don’t Invent The Torture Nexus”. Maybe it will go well this time!

  Seems more dangerous and less feasible than just offering free birth control. Handing out meth to addicts is a bad idea, even if it’s laced with something beneficial. Most women take b.c. willingly, no need to mix them together to coerce them.

  Rendering people infertile (even temporarily) without their informed consent is unethical. Doing it to a class of people due to your perception that people like them shouldn’t breed is eugenics. This would qualify. The black socks thing probably would too, but it sounds ridiculous because that’s a class of people nobody would realistically target for elimination from the breeding pool.

  Offering free birth control to drug users- fine! Dosing them without their consent- no bueno.

  I immediately thought of the Phasmid too! So this is me catching your perfectly worded reference and making a sly reply to let you know I’m in on the joke and we are both very cool for getting the reference.

  It’s because i’m brimming with pep.

  They should put meth in birth control. It would make it easier to remember to take it on time and I could call them “mommy’s pep pills” and it would be charmingly ironic because I have no children because I’m good at taking my pills on time.

  It’s got what plants crave. It’s got electrolytes.

  As long as they don’t call it “organic”, that would kill my overly literal chemistry-nerd brain.

  Actually, open is good. When the shield (really a reflector) is closed, the core goes critical. Basically, the shield is made of mirrors that reflect neutrons back into the core, knocking more neutrons loose which then get reflected back in, at the point of criticality creating a feedback loop that will run away- a huge explosion. The closer the sphere is to fully closed, the more energy generated and the more radiation emitted.

  These are all worn voluntarily. This issue isn’t about the equivalent of scandalously clad young girls, it’s like if girls were being involuntarily stripped of their clothing by their classmates. It’s not about modesty standards it’s about sexual abuse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Hm. I wasn’t expecting the pro-child porn argument. All I can say is that’s absolutely legally and morally CSAM, and you’re fuckin nasty. Oof. Not really gonna bother with the rest because, well, yikes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah there’s some nasty shit here. Big yikes, Lemmy.

  Are you OK with sexually explicit photos of children taken without their knowledge? They’re not being actively put in a sexual situation if you’re snapping photos with a hidden camera in a locker room, for example. You ok with that?

  The harm is:

  • Those photos now exist in the world and can lead to direct harm to the victim by their exposure
  • it normalizes pedophilia and creates a culture of trading images, leading to more abuse to meet demand for more images
  • The people sharing those photos learn to treat people like objects for their sexual gratification, ignoring their consent and agency. They are more likely to mistreat people they have learned to objectify.
  • your body should not be used for the profit or gratification of others without your consent. In my mind this includes taking or using your picture without your consent.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know where you’re getting this “thought crime” stuff. They’re talking about boys distributing deepfake nudes of their classmates. They’re not talking about individuals fantasizing in the privacy of their own homes. You have to read all of the words in the sentences, my friend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, it’s sexual abuse of a child, the same way taking surreptitious locker room photos would be. There’s nothing magical about a photograph of real skin vs a fake. The impact to the victim is the same. The impact to the viewer of the image is the same. Arguing over the semantic definition of “abuse” is getting people tangled up here. If we used the older term, “child porn” people wouldn’t be so hesitant to call this what it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  How is it different for the victim? What if they can’t tell if it’s a deepfake or a real photo of them?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They may be little sociopaths, but they don’t run around murdering each other. Our culture hammers it into their brains that it is wrong and they will be severely punished for it. We need to build a culture where little boys are afraid to distribute naked photos of their classmates. Where their friends will turn them in for fear of repercussions. You do that by treating it like a crime, not by saying “boys will be boys” and ignoring the issue.

  Treat it like a crime, and address separately the issue of children being tried as adults and facing lifelong consequences. The reforms needed to our juvenile justice system go beyond this particular crime.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you. Focusing on the harm the victims is the right way to understand this issue. Too many people in here hunting for a semantic loophole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If someone put a camera in the girls’ locker room and distributed photos from that, would you consider it CSAM? No contact would have taken place so the kids would be unaware when they were photographed, is it still abuse?

  If so, how is the psychological effect of a convincing deepfake any different?

  Yeah, please just talk to me like a person instead of advertising at me. Manipulation may work, but it’s not the kind of interaction I want to have with my representatives.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The world is falling apart! Send us your money!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  One of the biggest red flags that you might be getting conned is when they try to rush your decision. “It’s an emergency, your grandson is in jail and needs $500 to get bailed out, no you can’t hang up we need it now or he gets put in a cell with rapist bob.”

  Not saying this is a scam, just saying the tactic feels predatory. Do better, dems.

  I’ve never broken a bone, but I did get a dislocated elbow once when I was quite young, maybe 2 or 3. I was a dumb stubborn kid who threw a tantrum in the middle of a street and my mom had to grab me by the arm and drag me to safety. I fought her so hard I dislocated my elbow. I’m not sure if a leash would have made that situation more manageable, but I wouldn’t have blamed my parents for trying it. Sometimes kids go through a feral animal phase and you just have to deal with it however you can.
