No, I do not care about “traditional family values”, I care about the commodification of bodily autonomy. “Traditional family values” as this author alludes to have never protected those, especially not for women and girls. This just happens to be the first place I heard about this, since most left publications have chosen to abdicate their role in reporting on such things (such as the UN deciding that we need laws to protect pimping + actively encourage prostitution + refer to child sex slaves as “sexual child labor” or whatever (I do not need to elaborate on what needs to be done about such people, presumably?)).

The main argument being made here is “porn make taxes and GDP go up” which you should be familiar with by now. Generally these kinds of laws are used to create legal protection for pimping.

This is not auspicious news

    (I didn’t read more than the first sentence of the article, bad enough that you made me give Russian propaganda a click)

    Not sure I follow. You don’t like porn, correct? Because … there are people who rape children…?

      Lol you clicked it but didn’t read it? Why didn’t you put it in Archive.org if you think it’s evil propaganda? Has porn melted your brain?

      To answer your mindnumbingly stupid question, the UN is arguing that because prostitution exists, there should be legal protections for pimps and a reclassification of child rape victims as "workers*.

      There is already a liberal pro-woman solution to this called the Nordic Model where you stop arresting prostitutes, get them economic support to leave the trade (as they do want to by and large), and arrest the traffickers instead, as criminalizing the women alone has always kept them from organizing.

      Why do you need porn, no imagination? No removed? Just a fan of rape and trafficking?

        Citation needed.

        You keep mixing porn and prostitution. Maybe keep your messaging straight so other people can follow? Because I still don’t know what your argument here is other than “I DONT LIKE IT”.

              You got it boss/bossette.

              First: you have to go back to the moment the big bang happened.

              Second: you have to wonder why NATO kept on expanding east after the fall of the USSR.

              Three: you have to disregard previous two steps and assume all who don’t submit to NATO are evil.

              Is this helping the Ukrainian people, in your opinion? Stripping their country of its population and reducing their women (and twinks) to the most undesirable work? Who can be happy about this save for market speculators? Putin didn’t even want this war for a decade of Ukraine shelling and torturing people in Donbas

              • The purpose was always to exploit Ukraine and to eventually do the same to Russia. Some are aware of the plan, many bought into the propaganda. If the West are capable of committing a genocide in Gaza and pretending to be the good/civilized, they can get away with anything.
