Please don't use the phrase "CP" but instead the correct term 'CSAM'.

'Porn' suggests consent

While CSAM might be the word people are using now, how did you determine "porn" means the creation of it involved consent and not that the contents contain sexually explicit material?

The operative word is "suggests".

Just like I would "suggest" that instead of being pedantic about child abuse, you go have a wash, go outside and get some sunlight on your skin.

Being pedantic about CSAM was entirely unnecessary.

Direct your energy to more productive outlets

Yeah you wouldn't rename bestiality pornography even though the animals in that can't consent.
