It would probably make me distrust the prosecution, like if they're bringing this up they must not have much to go on. Like every time a black man is shot by police they bring up that he smoked weed.

I guess my main complaint is that it's insane to view it as equivalent to real CP, and it's harmful to waste any resources prosecuting it.

That's fair. We can also expect proper moderation from social media sites. I'm okay with a light touch but It shouldn't be floating around if you get what I mean.
