[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Horrible that these kids will have these images of them on the internet forever. They're just kids. Where are there parents in all of this.[/quote]

It wouldn’t have trigger my warning bells as I steer way clear of p*rn, R rated movies, etc.. [b]Just looked like a weird, dystopian teddy bear[/b] until others provided context.[/quote]

Umm, because that's exactly all it is. This is just marketing to kidults ([url]https://time.com/6234061/toys-for-adults-popularity/[/url] )--embrace the inner child and buy a $2K teddy bear purse or any of the other overpriced junk in the gift guide. The black leather bag and imagery from the earlier campaign has more fetish to it (and only adults). These children aren't sexualized, they look like kids, they don't even look enthralled with the toys, complete meh is the goal.

Now, were they stupid to put actual kids in the ads? Yes, clearly.  [/quote]

I think the legal text around CP being in the photo shoot is what tipped things over the edge.  These people are messed up.  Though I’m sure in the end the wrong people will be the ones blamed.  I find it deeply ironic that in the whole Jeffrey Epstein affair, the only person prosecuted so far has been a women.  All the men who committed the sex crimes have escaped prosecution.  I suspect the people responsible for the look and feel of these photo shoots will similarly escape harm. [/quote]

But that’s a different photo shoot, and doesn’t involve children or anyone even depicted as childlike. Connecting the two, is full on conspiracy theory.[/quote]

And yet the office shoot with the document on the Alito position that virtual child pornography or pornography featuring adults who look underage was not banned also had a framed college degree document on the wall for a John Phillip Fisher, the name of a man bound over for trial for molesting his granddaughter from the ages of 4 to 16.

Why all the gratuitous references to child pornography?[/quote]
