Think for a second. Why would he be specifically mentioning "those photos" if it was a news article?
That's asking a lot
Even if it was a news article, any half brained editor is going to know you don't post CP because it's illegal and you get the FBI breaking down your door and throwing you in a federal prison.
Those are the same thing. Child sexual abuse material is just a newer/better term for child porn as calling it porn is problematic.
You aren't adding any context, you're (hopefully unintentionally) defending cp.
Murder and homocide are not the same thing where the terminology was changed from one to the other. Murder is only one type of homicide, there are others. CSAM is CP, literally the same thing.
Pretending they aren't and continuing to argue about it is defending it. Feel free to stop any time.
Look at you telling on yourself putting "it" in "air quotes" and all.
Those are just quotation marks. Air quotes are when you use your fingers to form quotation marks in the air.
Lol obviously, brainfart on my behalf. Is there a word for those kinds of sarcastic (for lack of a better word) quotes where it's not just quoted, but implied to cast doubt on the original text/quote?
Scare quotes.
That's it! Thanks
I mean, no, you were right. That's where in spoken conversation you would use air quotes, so it seems correct to use the term this way online too. Maybe writing "virtual air quotes" would help people who don't understand that this is a text conversation, not literal speech?
See, I knew I was smaht!
Lol yeah I thought it was overly pedantic but 🤷
Did you look into this at all? At all?
