If porn is an inherent moral wrong, inherently and inextricably sexually abusive to all its participants (not just women), then it should be illegal full-stop, not just hidden behind privacy-destroying ID checks that grant the state unprecedented control over internet communication.
- version_five 4y agoLaw is not for codifying morality. It's a compromise to operate as a society. Prohibition doesn't work and causes more harm than good, even if people think the thing that's prohibited is "immoral"
- catiopatio 4y agoI happen to agree, and think that prohibition of porn would lead to horrific outcomes. Just consider the original prohibition, how it bolstered organized crime, and the kind of abuses likely to occur when the prohibited good is pornography instead of alcohol.
