Studies show playing video games raises short term aggression. But we have no hard data on the long term causative relationship between video games and violence, because it’s very difficult to cause patients to play video games for many years. I sure hope people are learning some of their moral values around violence from video games. I hope Wolfenstein makes people more violent towards neo-Nazis. I hope Horizon makes people more violent towards tech CEOs. I hope Subnautica makes people want to protect nature.

Now I’m going to cite Humm et al., (2020)'s insights into the psychology of first-time CSAM offenders. Most first-time CSAM offenders are unaware that what they’re doing is a crime, and they have doubts about the harmfulness of what they’re doing. In other words, they’re exactly the kind of people who tend to use the fauxbait community, and in fact they have a lot in common with people in this thread such as yourself.

Nonetheless, as a factor motivating onset, such exposure, or ‘opportunity’, is thought to have a ‘greater impact’ on an individual’s likelihood of viewing CEM than pathological motivations or drivers such as overpowering sexual urges

In other words, if you see this kind of porn by accident and you don’t think it’s that bad, you’re more likely to go on to become an online-only child sex offender.

Yes, I do think so. After all, I’m smarter than Trump, and that old pants shitter keeps beating them.

The dems’ corporate donors do want fascists in power, but the main way they achieve that is by giving the dems bad advice that makes them lose. Some Lemmy users are smart enough to see through that ruse and vote for the dems anyway so the fascists don’t seize power. Some Lemmy users are not that smart.

As a black man and mother of two…

Adults that look young is in no way child porn, and to brand it as such is to stigmatize people for how they look.

I mostly agree with you, and that’s why I think it’s disgusting that the users of ! fauxbait@fedinsfw.app are calling the women they’re posting fauxbait. It’s degrading to the women to market their porn as faux child porn.

Also I’m pretty sure Epstein talked a whole lot of rich people into becoming pedophiles. And Stephen Hawking, allegedly.

It’s faux jailbait and jailbait is child porn.

Pedophilia is sexual attraction for children, and the community is for people who are sexually attracted to children. It’s full of fake child porn for pedophiles to masturbate to. @lemmyposter212@fedinsfw.app is making the distinction that real child porn is against the rules, but fake child porn for pedophiles to masturbate to is not. @introvertturtle@lemmy.zip is saying it’s disgusting that wanting to look at child porn is allowed, regardless of whether the child porn is real or fake.

Those two statements look contradictory because you’re conflating pedophilia with child abuse. There’s no child abuse in the community, but there’s plenty of pedophilia.

People who want to look at child porn are pedophiles whether the child porn is real or fake. And fake child porn is not a treatment for pedophilia. Posting child porn on the internet makes more pedophiles, not less.

Fauxbait is short for faux jailbait. Jailbait is child porn that looks like adult porn. So in short, fauxbait is pictures of adults who look like children who look like adults.

Civilian homes are not tactical targets.

The issue is that they’re marketing to pedophiles. If they marketed those same sex workers to people who are attracted exclusively to adults, I would have no problem.

It doesn’t have access to the training data. It’s not outputting training data, it’s making up something that feels like the training data.

Making porn doesn’t reduce demand for porn, it increases it. The community will likely make more pedophiles

You should add a rule against fake pedo porn.

I have contacted @lemmyposter212@fedinsfw.app, the admin, about the community. They’ve stated it doesn’t break the rules and won’t be removed.

!fauxbait@fedinsfw.app is for pictures of adult women who look like teenagers. The intended purpose of the community is for pedophiles to pretend to get off to pictures of kids.

And they have a pedophile community

Really? Must be a new feature, it didn’t when I tried it. I know they can execute code, I guess the engineers added a search tool. Regardless, that tool isn’t part of their fundamental design. It’s something they have to go and access, and most of the time they won’t. If you were to experiment by asking it to write a scientific paper, you’d find the references are garbage with broken links and nonexistent papers. Hallucinations. It’s just making something plausible sounding up, the same as a lazy human might.

if they actually could “think” wouldnt they factcheck themselves first before saying something

No. They don’t have access to the original training data, or to the internet. They’re stuck remembering it the same way a human remembers something: with neurons. They cannot search the dataset for you. The best they can do is remember and tell you.

Politics isn’t always heated. Most politics is actually pretty calm. For example, this post is political, but it’s not heated or controversial. I think that treating politics like it can’t be calm is what makes posts like this heated.
