    You’re right. I’m going to go make convincing images of your partner/sibling/parents/kids/etc. and just share them here since no one should care.

    In fact, I’ll share them on other sites as well.

      That is where we are not seeing this the same way. You wanna make fake images, knock yourself out. I don’t care who they are. Make some of me for all I care.

        So if this happened to your significant other or children, and they are clearly upset and want it to stop, you would just go “I don’t care?”

        We all sometimes dig in our heels and become absolutist in our arguments online, but dude…do I really need to explain how insane that sounds? Do you really just have a complete lack of imagination and/or empathy?

        What happens when someone makes a convincing fake of you having sex with a kid and spreads it around “for the lulz”?

        I should’ve clarified that this was meant to be tongue in cheek but also illustrative of the issue. Something being “fake” doesn’t make it any less real to a victim. I understand it was flippant and a bit aggressive, but the intention was to get them to consider the impact it could have on them personally and those they love. It’s a very serious problem and I just struggle to see how people can shrug it off, which admittedly isn’t something I should take out on folks here.

        Hopefully the point still comes across
