That's really not true. We live in a society and interact with each other, we're not isolated, atomized robots (despite Silicon Valley's best efforts).

- nerdjon 4y agoHow does legal consenting porn, sex work, or similar impact you if you are not consuming it yourself? It has no more of an impact on you than if someone else spends their nights playing video games. If you have a problem with it existing that is your fault and not the fault of other people. But that is an internalized problem for you.
- throwfh80h82 4y agoI didn't say I have a problem with it existing personally, but rather that the statement isn't true. It's not personal. All the things you're asserting are also not true, you're just stating your opinion as fact. It's unclear to me how you'd think the norms and cultural practices of a society don't affect someone living in that society, unless you believe everyone is completely atomized. If everyone is a junkie, and I'm sober, my life is still markedly different living amongst junkies. Just like if a devout Muslim moves from Saudi Arabia to San Francisco their life will be different, even if they maintain their Muslim practices. If everyone spends their nights playing video games, they'll be tired all day, talking about video games all the time, and I may have difficulty making friends since I'm not into video games and prefer to spend my nights sleeping.
