Name a country where porn is illegal that is a better place to live than the United States.
Switzerland
Pornography in Switzerland is defined by the Article 197 of the Swiss criminal code. The first alinea states that «Any person who offers, shows, passes on or makes accessible to a person who is under the age of 16 pornographic documents, sound or visual recordings, depictions or other articles of a similar nature or pornographic representations, or broadcasts any of the same on radio or television is liable to a custodial sentence not exceeding three years or to a monetary penalty.» Furthermore, it is illegal to produce, import, store, market, advertise, exhibit, offer, show, pass on or make accessible pornography that depicts sexual acts involving children (under 16 years old) or animals, human excrement, or acts of violence, called "hard pornography".
They are definitely teaching them a lot of woke nonsense. I don't think they are teaching them to be pedophiles though. It's more likely that the job attracts more of them.
Since communism obviously believes porn is a weapon to be used to weaken their enemies, why on earth would you think they would NOT make it illegal in those same countriesThe only remaining communist countries are China, Cuba, Laos, North Korea, and Vietnam.
Porn is illegal in all of those countries.
Guess they aren't doing it right.
I disagree with those who are trying to conflate porn generally with the topic of pedophilia. Porn is its own thing unless it’s child porn. My involvement in the topic of the availability of porn is the extent to which it might aid grooming. Not that in a binary sense the availability is either targeting kids or not targeting, but there is a grey area there where it aids grooming and benefits the porn industry. I suspect if we had access to internal conversations we might find there’s more targeting than you think.Which is where this all started.
Painting with a wide brush is popular around here.
straight minority dudes do it too.
So, since you're willing to drag family into this, and you mentioned your Dad, what do you believe would be his response if you made this argument that production of pornography was a 1st amendment right to him?If that is what you truly believe I do feel sads for your family.

If I were to hazard a guess, it would be that 'rational' atheism almost always results in a reflexive rejection of just about anything with moral underpinnings - a vicious NEED to prove that The Word is a bad influence akin to the need to prove the same about patriotism and American exceptionalismWhat's the bottom line here, then? Because I really still can't see what you're driving at.
The Wolverines know that is a bad scenario
I wouldn’t classify myself as an atheist. But I’m certainly not a believer in the sense that you are. I think what you’re saying of some atheists is true, particularly those on the left. But most particularly post modern atheists would have that opinion.If I were to hazard a guess, it would be that 'rational' atheism almost always results in a reflexive rejection of just about anything with moral underpinnings - a vicious NEED to prove that The Word is a bad influence akin to the need to prove the same about patriotism and American exceptionalism
I would classify you as more of an agnosticI wouldn’t classify myself as an atheist
I am.I would classify you as more of an agnostic
The militancy of the atheists I just see as what has become the normal reaction of progressives to any challenge of their orthodoxy
But…it’d really class the joint up, don’t you think?I don't wanna be the one to start "the porn thread" on INGO. I'm just sayin'.
Atheism is too binary, yes?I am
Actually I hadn't thought about that, but yeah, it kinda is.Atheism is too binary, yes?
