I don't see how you can make the argument that child pornography is the same systemic risk as allowing people to openly plan to overthrow your democracy.

If child pornography is happening on your site, the FBI can come along and crack down, arrest those involved, and of course you're keeping logs to help them. If I plan a revolution on your site, the FBI are coming - not for me, for you. Once I'm in charge sure as shit you're not going to have the freedom to overthrow me the way I overhtrew you.
