In this case there are several crimes, but in the other one mentioned about a korean there is nothing, only possession of generated content arguing that there is high realism (someone could say the same even of a sketch). To imprison for acts that have neither victims nor any harm either directly or indirectly, is more aberrant than possessing that.

PS: I'm just talking about legality and rights, I know it's controversial and I'm sure someone has something to argue against it, but if you're going to accuse me of being a pedo just get lost you moron.

Here's a piece of art by Balthus. It's of a young girl in a skirt, leg hiked up and you can see her underpants: https://www.wikiart.org/en/balthus/th%C3%A9r%C3%A8se-dreaming-1938

This piece controversial, but evocative, thought-provoking and says something about an innocent time in our youth and the change of demeanor sexuality brings when we become aware.

People may not like this, but if you can separate sexuality and understand that we were once "innocent" - meaning sex wasn't something we knew about, we just had these bodies we were told to hide in clothes, the painting takes on a whole new meaning.

I'm not advocating for fake cheese pizza photos, fuck those sickos, but art can appear to be one thing on first glance and then take on a new meaning as we study and understand more.
