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

    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.
