You can insist every frame of Bart Simspon's dick in The Simpsons Movie should be as illegal as photographic evidence of child rape, but that does not make them the same thing. The entire point of the term CSAM is that it's the actual real evidence of child rape. It is nonsensical to use the term for any other purpose.

    The *entire point* of the term CSAM is that it's the actual real evidence of child rape.

    You are completely wrong.

    https://rainn.org/get-the-facts-about-csam-child-sexual-abuse-material/what-is-csam/

    “CSAM (“see-sam”) refers to any visual content—photos, videos, livestreams, or AI-generated images—that shows a child being sexually abused or exploited.”

    “Any content that sexualizes or exploits a child for the viewer’s benefit” <- AI goes here.

    RAINN has completely lost the plot by conflating the explicit term for Literal Photographic Evidence Of An Event Where A Child Was Raped with made-up bullshit.

    We will inevitably develop some other term like LPEOAEWACWR, and confused idiots will inevitably misuse that to refer to drawings, and it will be the exact same shit I'm complaining about right now.

    Child pornography (CP), also known as child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and by more informal terms such as kiddie porn, is erotic material that involves or depicts persons under the designated age of majority.
    [...]
    Laws regarding child pornography generally include sexual images involving prepubescents, pubescent, or post-pubescent minors and computer-generated images that appear to involve them.
    (Emphasis mine)
