It confuses the idea of child porn with literal child porn, similar to hate speech/depictions of violence with literal violence, neo-Nazis with literal 1940 Nazis, historical statues with racists. Free speech makes on sense in this regressive mindset.

A simpler way to say your accusation is that 'it confuses the sign with the signified', and I didn't.
