    The thread is discussing why it’s considered abuse if you can’t point to a victim. The answer turned out to be “because the law says so.”

      If you read the law you posted, it doesn’t actually address the question of victimhood. Also, I don’t really get why you’re still trying to force an unrelated point into this part of the discussion. Maybe find another place in the thread where someone thinks it’s legal and go talk to them.
