    I really wish our government could look at the actual results of policies and change them.

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    ...Have you seen job requirements recently? For that matter, have you been paying attention to what people say to kids? "made"... well, not if you require a gun at someone's head to "make" them. On the other hand, if you think being constantly told by everyone around you that you HAVE to go to...

    more damage than entering the workforce with half a million in debt?

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    nice Degradation? Interesting. I'd need to go find them again but I recall a number of tales of "porn thots" being quite empowered by their work. Given that a few of those examples involve human traffickers this is a fascinating claim. "Silly"... or cost-benefit weighers who didn't want to...

    ...You seriously need to do some actual research into whats being called "slave labour". Because it's significantly worse than you are thinking right now.

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    Roman "Slavery" was very very strange by today's understanding of what "slavery" means. Of course, there's also interesting questions regarding the differences between Slavery at the time and Slavery now even if in all other respects it's identical. Namely, these days we have these fascinating...

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    I'm arguing that if you want to ban/drop a thing because a segment of the industry profits off human misery there's a whole bunch of industries that do that so you ought to be dropping all of those. But no, there is no difference between buying child porn and a computer produced via slave...

    "Buying porn produced via slave labor is no different from buying a computer produced via slave labor"

    ...I suppose you also want to give up video games because crunch time is terrible. Also Japanese products since companies there literally work their people to death to such a degree they have a word for it, karoshi, and it's on their national death statistics. For that matter since drug testing...

    ...apparently "Peace"="Subjugation".... interesting. As for that second one... that is LITERALLY victim blaming "She shouldn't have dressed like that".

    ...most of them yes. There's a REASON all the big "human nature and government" philosophy happened in ATHENS during the short period where it was a direct democracy. Like, seriously, this isn't a counter argument.

    you mean like Coffee? Like, if we are going to say "it's like a drug and therefore bad" surely the single most consumed neurological drug counts. For that matter so does Tea and Chocolate... Perhaps we should take this a step further and ban capsaicin in food, it has MASSIVE potential for ill...

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    again, I'd like to point out just how much power the federal government has assumed based on "interstate commerce". The idea that the expanding bureaucracy won't expand to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy is absurd.

    ...so, a Christmas movie where an important part of a main characters background is that they look reasonably like a famous actor and so are a stunt double for them in scene's involving sex is now banned, and no, you can't edit out the sex scenes because important character development happens...

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    ...how exactly do you intend to distinguish between porn and say, "biology textbooks"? For that matter, how would you avoid banning writing that relies on sexuality and eroticism as an integral part of the story? Like, you say "porn" and I'm sure you have, in your head, a very specific image...

    ...huh... assuming Israel's Porn Ban is exactly what you say it is I'm ALMOST okay with that sort of "porn ban"... which is fascinating because I was expecting any porn ban proposals to be absurdly privacy invading and/or free speech violating but that one is actually kind of fine... I say kind...
