In a world where deep fakes have advanced to the point where you can realistically recreate pornography: How do you feel about the depiction of pornographic scenes that would be seriously harmful if done to real people? (i.e., cannibalism, nonconsent, torture, children)

Libertarians tend to try to clearly identify the 'harm' that isn't ok - for example "punching someone in the face" or "stealing their stuff." This is why they tend to have a limited definition of harm - it's harm that "is never (or rarely) justified to do to another person"

And I agree that this can be an overly simplified division, and i'm totally open to talking about how to reduce harms that aren't just plain rights violations, but I still think the division is important - the harms that are ok to do to others, and the harms that aren't.
