> yet keeps coming up as an example of speech that's permissible to suppress for some reason

Because they don't actually have an example of not imminently violence causing non-fraudulent speech that SCOTUS has upheld a ban of. And then when you call them out they'll say "but wait, it's metaphorical". If they had a better example they'd be using it.

Child pornography
Child sexual abuse material is evidence of violence, and act of violence, all at once.
So are videos of people being punched and stabbed. Those are legal
The sharing and owning of those videos aren't part of the violence as they are with CSAM. That feels evident, right?
Can you explain why?
