It's a fine line. It depends a lot on who is producing the content and why. What's their objective. There's definitely folks who will create films and documentaries to exploit the subject, and folks who do it to highlight the subject. No silver bullet, unfortunately.
- graderjs 4y agoYeah, but what I'm saying is still valuable and important: I mean, who are we to judge? We don't know it's exploitation. From the outside it's pretty hard to see that, the people involved have to decide for themselves. And if they have decided we have to respect that, I think. Unless you see the full picture, how it's all made, all the connections between the people: as an audience member, consuming the content, I mean, you can't tell, no way. Maybe even being an audience member is exploitative...anyway. So I think you got to err on the side of caution as an outsider who has no idea, and just like not try to impose, and not call for any sort of curtailing of such content under the moral panic that "it's exploitative", which may just a NIMBY sort of way of silencing them "for their own good."
