> Seems self-contradictory to profiteer off of sexualized mass + social media (totally OK) but then get up in arms when that power is given to the masses (deepfake nudes).

I think you might misunderstand the issue.

Adults posting their own nudes on social media, even to profit from it? At a glance, seems OK, might have some moral/ethical considerations if you're involved with religion, but that should more be "Should I post my nudes?" rather than "Should others be allowed to post nudes?" but alas, religious people often don't think like that.

People posting generated/fake nudes of others (sometimes children) on social media, even just for fun? At a glance, obviously not OK and obviously something that has to be addressed, in some manner, the very least make it illegal if it isn't already.

> fake ... obviously not OK

Obviously OK, and the puritans have to learn to live with it.
