Is a video of a baby roasting in an oven even illegal? In general, are videos of violent crime illegal?
This. People reaaaaally don’t like that point, but video/fictional stuff should not be held to the same standard as actual, living people. Otherwise, we can kiss goodbye to 90% of the entertainment business. Movies, books, video games, pictures, all of those should be allowed to depict stuff, if only to criticize it.
Unfortunately, too many people think that if they don’t want to see something, no media of it should exist.
It would be very different if actual people were used, or even just their likeness, because then it actually can cause harm and distress. But this? People wasting their time defending pixels are doing only one thing: not defending actual people.
And where do you draw the line?
For example, do you think CSAM should be legal as long as those in the material are fictional?
If you think that is not okay, would it make a difference to you if those in the material were not “realistic” (but still underage)?
I don’t think people are suggesting it should be illegal because they personally don’t want to see it, but rather because they believe that it is damaging to society as a whole.
drawn pornographic depcitions are generally legal and protected by the first amendment in the united states, even if the artist explicitly states the characters are minors.
If fake babies roasting in ovens was a bad thing, how come The Sims never got cancelled? 🤔
I’ll bite. Modding a game is your business; it’s up to each internet board to decide if that mod or its depictions is acceptable within its terms of use.
Facebook’s terms of use probably prohibits depicting pictures of babies in ovens, thus, if it’s imposed on some and not others, that’s not the correct implementation of their own terms of use·
This isn’t a mod.
It’s a bug.
🤔 but why does the burned baby texture exist?
It’s not a whole texture; it’s just a hue change over whatever is on the grill. Normally the food items aren’t even 3D objects, they’re 2D sprites.
Tho apparently, someone did make a mod after the bug was fixed that allows you to grill babies on purpose instead of it just randomly happening if you attempted to grill while holding a baby.
