I feel like "without consent" to be pretty key here.
- oceanplexian 2y agoYou don't have a right to consent to being part of an artwork. For example, even the King of England could not walk into a museum and demand they take a painting down because it's unflattering.
- jncfhnb 2y agoAnd now you do have the right to consent to being in porn.
- randomdata 2y agoUnless the King of England petitioned for law that gave him that right. Which is basically what we're seeing here.
- Gloomily3819 2y agoAnd that would be an authoritarian measure.
- randomdata 2y agoTo petition change isn't authoritarian. That's the foundation of democracy.
- kwhitefoot 2y agoThe petitioning is not authoritarian but the measure is.
- randomdata 2y agoIn that sense, all laws are.
- bilbo0s 2y agoActually, you do. IF the artwork is porn. In fact, if you're not old enough, it's just flat out illegal. You'll go to prison for making that artwork. And you arguing that it's "art" is not going to find much resonance in US courts at least. You're likely to fail the Miller test if US citizens are the judges.
