Pineapples aren’t really apples, but that doesn’t cause confusion because people know what the word “pineapple” means.
I think the difference here from GTA is that this is a shared virtual world where the actions of players shape the society inside the game. If they’re creating a society where stimulated child abuse is shrugged off as just someone’s private life (even though it’s essentially public to everyone on second life) then I wouldn’t want to participate in that society, and if I worked for the company making second life I wouldn’t want any part of it.
