    As you can see, most people on this right-leaning forum are arguing against him.

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    And, truthfully, I live in the world as it is, not as I'd like it to be. The fact that a reactionary party will never get into power to implement this ban makes it untenable which leaves other avenues to combat this problem. As you've acknowledged, this proposal has not been implemented by the...

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    Is it being implemented or is it being proposed? Last I checked, Israel was in a political deadlock. And I've been clear what I want. I want to know how you will get a government in position to pass and implement this ban and how to keep it from being overturned when the Left takes power and/or...

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    You started the thread. @LordsFire had a very reasonable critique on the merits of your plan. If you want it to be at all considered outside of people who already agree with you, then you need to address those points. To do otherwise is intellectual laziness.

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    The point still stands. You can't deflect a question with your own. So far, you haven't said how your policy would be implemented or how your fantasy government will get into power or stay in power with this policy.

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    If they don't make sense, then you can easily argue against them. Last I checked, saying "I'm taking my ball and going home" didn't win a game.

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    I already made my argument above. You can engage in or not, but there it stands. I do not disagree with your motives. But as I said above, there doesn't exist any government that can be trusted with the type of power your require to implement even the soft ban you desire.

    You might not care, but this is a public debate forum so I will make my opinion known.

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    Then it is a non-starter because I don't think there is a government in this world that you can trust with that sort of power.

    The Political Problem of Pornography

    When. It comes down to it, putting the genie back into the bottle is all but impossible. It is all but impossible to keep people who want porn from getting to it and it creates a cat and mouse game where porn use rates do not change much. I know of the negative effects of porn, but it has to be...
