As far as I can tell, the "A criminal offence. Stop making up thought crimes, you authoritarian zealots!" comment didn't mean "don't include intent, that would be thoughtcrime" it meant "don't make viewing/possessing pictures illegal, because you can't do so without either making thoughtcrime or making every /b/ (or imgur roulette, omegle, etc) user a felon"
- hahainternet 13y agoI appreciate that. My issue is with the term 'thought crime' as indeed the thoughts in your mind can determine whether or not you are charged with a crime at all. I don't see a problem with that and only the narrower definition of 'acts purely comprised of thought unconnected to physical actions' really holds up.
