For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

"Well what if I want to use a bank robbery to withdraw money from my own bank account? I don't particularly want to do that. But why shouldn't I be able to?"
Get in front of a mirror and take a fucking picture of yourself nude if you so wish.
Have a better example?
Bank robbery is theft, hardly a protected First Amendment activity.
Generating csam is not a first amendment activity, you are talking crap.
Come on, that's a warped bad-faith take and you know it. Making child porn with a film camera is illegal. Every camera is capable of making child porn. But we don't outlaw cameras, or adult pornography, simply because the same tools allow the creation of child porn.
You are talking crap.
you're kinda close, but still missing the mark... but if you didn't understand the point, you have your mind set to being stupid and stubborn & I won't waste energy trying to sway your opinion.
If you're not willing to fight for your constitutional rights, then you don't deserve to have them, and you will lose them.
Whether you think it's right or not, being able to create nudified images of yourself is a perfectly valid and constitutionally protected action, just like making pornography generally. And any attempt to ban these apps would also restrict numerous other constitutionally protected activities and involve severe violations of privacy.
If you want to make an actual reply that gets to the core of my argument, rather than just going, "bruh, you think you should be able to rob a bank, no I refuse to actually explain anything, if you don't get my unstated point, you're a moron," then go ahead.
Constitutional rights are important. You cannot choose to abandon them just because you find one application of them distasteful.
We can ban AI child porn by just treating it like any other child porn. We don't try to regulate child porn by outlawing cameras. Go after the actual crime you want to prevent, not the tools that have many legitimate uses.
No, we try to ban it in its entirety by outlawing csam generating machines. Simple. If they can't make they app without making the csam, they should not be allowed to make the app, and no, csam is not a first amendment right.
By your logic, we should outlaw cameras. Every camera is capable of making child pornography.
